Labeling In Kubernetes

In this article, we will discuss labeling in Kubernetes.

What Is Labelling?

Labels are the key-value pairs attached to the pod or any other resource. The purpose of labeling is to group or categorize the resources.

For this article, we are applying labelling to pods. For labeling the pod, write the following command: -

kubectl label pods [pod_name] [key]=[value]

Use the following command to check the label name of the pod: -

kubectl describe pods [pod_name]

The purpose of this command is to disable the list of pods and their labels. The syntax is: -

kubectl get po --show-labels

To search the pod based on the label, execute the following command: -

kubectl get po -l [key]=[value]
