NAME

oc label - Update the labels on a resource

SYNOPSIS

oc label [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

Update the labels on one or more resources

A valid label value is consisted of letters and/or numbers with a max length of 63 characters. If --overwrite is true, then existing labels can be overwritten, otherwise attempting to overwrite a label will result in an error. If --resource-version is specified, then updates will use this resource version, otherwise the existing resource-version will be used.

OPTIONS

--all=false
    select all resources in the namespace of the specified resource types

--dry-run=false
    If true, only print the object that would be sent, without sending it.

-f, --filename=[]
    Filename, directory, or URL to a file identifying the resource to update the labels

--include-extended-apis=true
    If true, include definitions of new APIs via calls to the API server. [default true]

--no-headers=false
    When using the default output, don't print headers.

-o, --output=""
    Output format. One of: json|yaml|wide|name|go-template=...|go-template-file=...|jsonpath=...|jsonpath-file=... See golang template [ ⟨http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview⟩] and jsonpath template [ ⟨http://releases.k8s.io/release-1.3/docs/user-guide/jsonpath.md⟩].

--output-version=""
    Output the formatted object with the given group version (for ex: 'extensions/v1beta1').

--overwrite=false
    If true, allow labels to be overwritten, otherwise reject label updates that overwrite existing labels.

--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.

--resource-version=""
    If non-empty, the labels update will only succeed if this is the current resource-version for the object. Only valid when specifying a single resource.

-l, --selector=""
    Selector (label query) to filter on

-a, --show-all=true
    When printing, show all resources (false means hide terminated pods.)

--show-labels=false
    When printing, show all labels as the last column (default hide labels column)

--sort-by=""
    If non-empty, sort list types using this field specification. The field specification is expressed as a JSONPath expression (e.g. '{.metadata.name}'). The field in the API resource specified by this JSONPath expression must be an integer or a string.

--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⟩].

EXAMPLE

      # Update pod 'foo' with the label 'unhealthy' and the value 'true'.
      oc label pods foo unhealthy=true
      # Update pod 'foo' with the label 'status' and the value 'unhealthy', overwriting any existing value.
      oc label --overwrite pods foo status=unhealthy
      # Update all pods in the namespace
      oc label pods --all status=unhealthy
      # Update pod 'foo' only if the resource is unchanged from version 1.
      oc label pods foo status=unhealthy --resource-version=1
      # Update pod 'foo' by removing a label named 'bar' if it exists.
      # Does not require the --overwrite flag.
