When i try to create a yaml file using the “ kubectl run web app —dry-run=client -o yaml > webapp.yaml” I am prompted for an image name. Any way around this

#2

Mohamed Ayman:
Hii @John H,
try with --image= flag

#3

John H:
I’ll give that a shot. I was describing the pod and using that. I figured there was an easier way, thank you

#4

sam:
kubectl run --image=nginx webapp --dry-run=client -o yaml > webapp.yaml

#5

John H:
The image was different

#6

sam:
you can use any image name you want

#7

sam:
it’ll try to get the image from docker. what image do you want to use?

#8

John H:
Understood. My concern is to recreate the existing pod yaml as shown in the videos

#9

John H:
I believe he does not pass the image flag

#10

sam:
hmm, it won’t be possible for you to create without passing an image tag,

#11

sam:
which video?

#12

John H:
I’ll have to rewatch the video to see how it’s done

#13

John H:
Most of the videos that have a pod recreation involved

#14

sam:
yeah, most of them do

#15

sam:
or if you edit an existing yaml file too, that’s another thing

#16

John H:
True I’ll have to find it. Thank you for the help
