Logging and Output

This page explains how KubeTidy reports progress, summaries, and errors in both PowerShell and CLI usage.

Examples

Invoke-KubeTidy -KubeConfigPath "$HOME\.kube\config" -Verbose
Invoke-KubeTidy -KubeConfigPath "$HOME\.kube\config" -Verbose *>&1 | Tee-Object -FilePath "$HOME/kubetidy.log"

kubetidy --kubeconfig "$HOME/.kube/config" --verbose
kubectl kubetidy --kubeconfig "$HOME/.kube/config" --verbose

Notes

  • Verbose output includes reachability checks, backup creation, and merge processing.
  • Cleanup and merge operations print a short summary after they complete.
  • KubeTidy returns a non-zero exit code when a command fails, which makes it suitable for scripts and CI jobs.
