# datumctl get

Display one or many resources

### Synopsis

Display one or many resources.

Prints a table of the most important information about the specified resources. You can filter the list using a label selector and the --selector flag. If the desired resource type is namespaced you will only see results in the current namespace if you don't specify any namespace.

By specifying the output as 'template' and providing a Go template as the value of the --template flag, you can filter the attributes of the fetched resources.

Use "datumctl api-resources" for a complete list of supported resources.

```
datumctl get [(-o|--output=)json|yaml|kyaml|name|go-template|go-template-file|template|templatefile|jsonpath|jsonpath-as-json|jsonpath-file|custom-columns|custom-columns-file|wide] (TYPE[.VERSION][.GROUP] [NAME | -l label] | TYPE[.VERSION][.GROUP]/NAME ...) [flags]
```

### Examples

```
  # List all pods in ps output format
  kubectl get pods

  # List all pods in ps output format with more information (such as node name)
  kubectl get pods -o wide

  # List a single replication controller with specified NAME in ps output format
  kubectl get replicationcontroller web

  # List deployments in JSON output format, in the "v1" version of the "apps" API group
  kubectl get deployments.v1.apps -o json

  # List a single pod in JSON output format
  kubectl get -o json pod web-pod-13je7
