NAME
kubectl apply edit-last-applied - Edit latest last-applied-configuration annotations of a resource/object

SYNOPSIS
kubectl apply edit-last-applied [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
Edit the latest last-applied-configuration annotations of resources from the default editor.

The edit-last-applied command allows you to directly edit any API resource you can retrieve via the command-line tools. It will open the editor defined by your KUBE_EDITOR, or EDITOR environment variables, or fall back to 'vi' for Linux or 'notepad' for Windows. You can edit multiple objects, although changes are applied one at a time. The command accepts file names as well as command-line arguments, although the files you point to must be previously saved versions of resources.

The default format is YAML. To edit in JSON, specify "-o json".

The flag --windows-line-endings can be used to force Windows line endings, otherwise the default for your operating system will be used.

In the event an error occurs while updating, a temporary file will be created on disk that contains your unapplied changes. The most common error when updating a resource is another editor changing the resource on the server. When this occurs, you will have to apply your changes to the newer version of the resource, or update your temporary saved copy to include the latest resource version.

OPTIONS
--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.

--field-manager="kubectl-client-side-apply"
    Name of the manager used to track field ownership.

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

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

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

--record=false
    Record current kubectl command in the resource annotation. If set to false, do not record the command. If set to true, record the command. If not set, default to updating the existing annotation value only if one already exists.

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

--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].

--validate="strict"
    Must be one of: strict (or true), warn, ignore (or false). "true" or "strict" will use a schema to validate the input and fail the request if invalid. It will perform server side validation if ServerSideFieldValidation is enabled on the api-server, but will fall back to less reliable client-side validation if not. "warn" will warn about unknown or duplicate fields without blocking the request if server-side field validation is enabled on the API server, and behave as "ignore" otherwise. "false" or "ignore" will not perform any schema validation, silently dropping any unknown or duplicate fields.

--windows-line-endings=false
    Defaults to the line ending native to your platform.

OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS
--as=""
    Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a regular user or a service account in a namespace.

--as-group=[]
    Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups.

--as-uid=""
    UID to impersonate for the operation.

--as-user-extra=[]
    User extras to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple values for the same key.

--kubeconfig=""
    Path to the kubeconfig file to use for CLI requests.

--profile-output="profile.pprof"
    Name of the file to write the profile to

--request-timeout="0"
    The length of time to wait before giving up on a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corresponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't timeout requests.

-s, --server=""
    The address and port of the Kubernetes API server

--tls-server-name=""
    Server name to use for server certificate validation. If it is not provided, the hostname used to contact the server is used

--token=""

--user=""
    The name of the kubeconfig user to use

--username=""

    --version, --version=raw prints version information and quits; --version=vX.Y.Z... sets the reported version

--warnings-as-errors=false
    Treat warnings received from the server as errors and exit with a non-zero exit code
