explorer
Explorer is a little container for examining the runtime environment kubernetes produces for your pods.
The intended use is to substitute gcr.io/google_containers/explorer for your intended container, and then visit it via the proxy.
Currently, you can look at:
- The environment variables to make sure kubernetes is doing what you expect.
- The filesystem to make sure the mounted volumes and files are also what you expect.
- Perform DNS lookups, to see how DNS works.
pod.yaml is supplied as an example. You can control the port it serves on with the -port flag.
Example from command line (the DNS lookup looks better from a web browser):
$ kubectl create -f examples/explorer/pod.yaml
$ kubectl proxy &
