NAME¶

oc set data - Update the data within a config map or secret

SYNOPSIS¶

oc set data [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION¶

Add, update, or remove data keys from secrets and config maps.

Secrets and config maps allow users to store keys and values that can be passed into pods or loaded by other Kubernetes resources. This command lets you set or remove keys from those objects from arguments or files. Use the --from-file flag when you want to load the contents of a file or directory, or pass command line arguments that contain either a KEY=VALUE pair (to set a value) or KEY- (to remove that key).

You may also use this command as part of a chain to modify an object before submitting to the server with the --local and --dry-run flags. This allows you to update local resources to contain additional keys.

OPTIONS¶

--all=false
If true, select all resources in the namespace of the specified resource types

--allow-missing-template-keys=true
If true, ignore any errors in templates when a field or map key is missing in the template. Only applies to golang and jsonpath output formats.

--dry-run="none"
Must be "none", "server", or "client". If client strategy, only print the object that would be sent, without sending it. If server strategy, submit server-side request without persisting the resource.

--field-manager="kubectl-set"
Name of the manager used to track field ownership.

-f, --filename=[]
Filename, directory, or URL to files to use to edit the resource

--from-file=[]
Specify a file using its file path, in which case the file basename will be used as the keyor optionally with a key and file path, in which case the given key will be used. Specifying a directory will iterate each named file in the directory whose basename is a valid secret key.

--from-literal=[]
Specify a key and literal value to set (i.e. mykey=somevalue)

-k, --kustomize=""
Process the kustomization directory. This flag can't be used together with -f or -R.

--local=false
If true, set image will NOT contact api-server but run locally.

-o, --output=""
Output format. One of: (json, yaml, name, go-template, go-template-file, template, templatefile, jsonpath, jsonpath-as-json, jsonpath-file).

-R, --recursive=false
Process the directory used in -f, --filename recursively. Useful when you want to manage related manifests organized within the same directory.

-l, --selector=""
Selector (label query) to filter on

--show-managed-fields=false
If true, keep the managedFields when printing objects in JSON or YAML format.

--template=""
Template string or path to template file to use when -o=go-template, -o=go-template-file. The template format is golang templates [ ⟨http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview⟩].
