Watches Kubernetes resources via its API.

Out-of-cluster examples:

Watch for pods events in all namespaces:

kubewatch --resource pods

Same thing with docker:

docker run -it --rm \
-v ~/.kube/config:/root/.kube/config \
softonic/kubewatch --resource pods

Watch for services events in namespace foo:

kubewatch --namespace foo --resource services

Same thing with docker:

docker run -it --rm \
-v ~/.kube/config:/root/.kube/config \
softonic/kubewatch --namespace foo --resource services

In-cluster examples:

Run kubewatch in the monitoring namespace and watch for pods in all namespaces:

kubectl --namespace monitoring run kubewatch --image softonic/kubewatch -- --resource pods
