17 The kubelet is the primary "node agent" that runs on each node. It can
18 register the node with the apiserver using one of: the hostname; a flag
19 to override the hostname; or specific logic for a cloud provider.

21
22 The kubelet works in terms of a PodSpec. A PodSpec is a YAML or JSON
23 object that describes a pod. The kubelet takes a set of PodSpecs that
24 are provided through various mechanisms (primarily through the apis‐
25 erver) and ensures that the containers described in those PodSpecs are
26 running and healthy. The kubelet doesn't manage containers which were
27 not created by Kubernetes.

30 Other than from an PodSpec from the apiserver, there are three ways
31 that a container manifest can be provided to the Kubelet.

33
34 File: Path passed as a flag on the command line. Files under this path
35 will be monitored periodically for updates. The monitoring period is
36 20s by default and is configurable via a flag.
37
38
39 HTTP endpoint: HTTP endpoint passed as a parameter on the command line.
40 This endpoint is checked every 20 seconds (also configurable with a
41 flag).
42
43
44 HTTP server: The kubelet can also listen for HTTP and respond to a sim‐
45 ple API (underspec'd currently) to submit a new manifest.
