## kubectl describe
Show details of a specific resource or group of resources
### Synopsis
Show details of a specific resource or group of resources.
This command joins many API calls together to form a detailed description of a
given resource or group of resources.
$ kubectl describe TYPE NAME_PREFIX
will first check for an exact match on TYPE and NAME_PREFIX. If no such resource
exists, it will output details for every resource that has a name prefixed with NAME_PREFIX
Possible resource types include (case insensitive): pods (po), services (svc),
replicationcontrollers (rc), nodes (no), events (ev), limitranges (limits),
persistentvolumes (pv), persistentvolumeclaims (pvc), resourcequotas (quota),
namespaces (ns) or secrets.
```
kubectl describe (-f FILENAME | TYPE [NAME_PREFIX | -l label] | TYPE/NAME)
```
### Examples
```
# Describe a node
$ kubectl describe nodes kubernetes-minion-emt8.c.myproject.internal
# Describe a pod
$ kubectl describe pods/nginx
# Describe a pod using the data in pod.json.
$ kubectl describe -f pod.json
# Describe all pods
$ kubectl describe pods
# Describe pods by label name=myLabel
$ kubectl describe po -l name=myLabel
# Describe all pods managed by the 'frontend' replication controller (rc-created pods
# get the name of the rc as a prefix in the pod the name).
$ kubectl describe pods frontend
```
