# NAME
|
|
kubelet \- Processes a container manifest so the containers are launched according to how they are described.
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
**kubelet** [OPTIONS]
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The **kubernetes** kubelet runs on each node. The Kubelet works in terms of a container manifest. A container manifest is a YAML or JSON file that describes a pod. The Kubelet takes a set of manifests that are provided in various mechanisms and ensures that the containers described in those manifests are started and continue running.
|
|
|
|
There are 3 ways that a container manifest can be provided to the Kubelet:
|
|
|
|
File: Path passed as a flag on the command line. This file is rechecked every 20 seconds (configurable with a flag).
|
|
HTTP endpoint: HTTP endpoint passed as a parameter on the command line. This endpoint is checked every 20 seconds (also configurable with a flag).
|
|
HTTP server: The kubelet can also listen for HTTP and respond to a simple API (underspec'd currently) to submit a new manifest.
|
|
|
|
