YAML Output

Tables show a summary. To see everything Kubernetes knows about an object, ask for it as YAML:

kubectl get pod web -o yaml

The output is a complete manifest: the metadata with labels and a unique uid, the full spec with the defaults Kubernetes filled in, and a status section you never write yourself.

The status is where the live facts are: phase: Running, the podIP, the node's hostIP and, under containerStatuses, the state and restart count of every container.

-o json gives the same object as JSON, which tools can parse. Both formats work for any resource: try kubectl get deployment web -o yaml or kubectl get service web -o json.
