9 kubectl create service externalname - Create an ExternalName service
10
14 kubectl create service externalname [OPTIONS]
15
19 Create an ExternalName service with the specified name.
20 ExternalName service references to an external DNS address instead of
23 only pods, which will allow application authors to reference services
24 that exist off platform, on other clusters, or locally.
25
29 --allow-missing-template-keys=true If true, ignore any errors in
30 templates when a field or map key is missing in the template. Only ap‐
31 plies to golang and jsonpath output formats.
32 --dry-run="none" Must be "none", "server", or "client". If client
35 strategy, only print the object that would be sent, without sending it.
36 If server strategy, submit server-side request without persisting the
37 resource.
38 --external-name="" External name of service
41 --field-manager="kubectl-create" Name of the manager used to track
44 field ownership.
45 -o, --output="" Output format. One of: (json, yaml, name, go-tem‐
48 plate, go-template-file, template, templatefile, jsonpath, jsonpath-as-
49 json, jsonpath-file).
50 --save-config=false If true, the configuration of current object
53 will be saved in its annotation. Otherwise, the annotation will be un‐
54 changed. This flag is useful when you want to perform kubectl apply on
55 this object in the future.
56 --show-managed-fields=false If true, keep the managedFields when
59 printing objects in JSON or YAML format.
60 --tcp=[] Port pairs can be specified as ':'.
63 --template="" Template string or path to template file to use when
66 -o=go-template, -o=go-template-file. The template format is golang tem‐
67 plates [http://golang.org/pkg/text/template/#pkg-overview].
68 --validate="strict" Must be one of: strict (or true), warn, ignore
71 (or false). "true" or "strict" will use a schema to validate
72 the input and fail the request if invalid. It will perform server side
73 validation if ServerSideFieldValidation is enabled on the api-server,
74 but will fall back to less reliable client-side validation if not.
75 "warn" will warn about unknown or duplicate fields without
76 blocking the request if server-side field validation is enabled on the
77 API server, and behave as "ignore" otherwise. "false" or
78 "ignore" will not perform any schema validation, silently dropping any
79 unknown or duplicate fields.
80
84 --as="" Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a
85 regular user or a service account in a namespace.
86 --as-group=[] Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag
89 can be repeated to specify multiple groups.
90 --as-uid="" UID to impersonate for the operation.
93 --azure-container-registry-config="" Path to the file containing
96 Azure container registry configuration information.
97 --cache-dir="/builddir/.kube/cache" Default cache directory
100 --certificate-authority="" Path to a cert file for the certificate
103 authority
104 --client-certificate="" Path to a client certificate file for TLS
107 --client-key="" Path to a client key file for TLS
110 --cluster="" The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use
113 --context="" The name of the kubeconfig context to use
116 --disable-compression=false If true, opt-out of response compres‐
119 sion for all requests to the server
120 --insecure-skip-tls-verify=false If true, the server's certificate
123 will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections
124 insecure
125 --kubeconfig="" Path to the kubeconfig file to use for CLI re‐
128 quests.
129 --match-server-version=false Require server version to match
132 client version
133 -n, --namespace="" If present, the namespace scope for this CLI
136 request
137 --password="" Password for basic authentication to the API server
140 --profile="none" Name of profile to capture. One of

144 --profile-output="profile.pprof" Name of the file to write the
147 profile to
148 --request-timeout="0" The length of time to wait before giving up
151 on a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corre‐
152 sponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't time‐
153 out requests.
154 -s, --server="" The address and port of the Kubernetes API server
157 --tls-server-name="" Server name to use for server certificate
160 validation. If it is not provided, the hostname used to contact the
161 server is used
162 --token="" Bearer token for authentication to the API server
165 --user="" The name of the kubeconfig user to use
168 --username="" Username for basic authentication to the API server
171 --version=false Print version information and quit

177 as errors and exit with a non-zero exit code
