Kubernetes commands are very long with different parameters. We can make them short by using kubernetes aliases available for various object and creating aliases for most frequently used commands. This will speed up the productivity and also can be used during CKA exams.
Kubernetes aliases to get resources
Open your favourite shell and put it in the shell config. For bash its $HOME/.bashrc or for zsh its $HOME/.zshrc.
alias k="kubectl"
alias kp="kubectl get pods -o wide"
alias kd="kubectl get deploy -o wide"
alias kn="kubectl get nodes -o wide"
alias ks="kubectl get svc -o wide"Describe kubernetes resources
alias kdp="kubectl describe pod"
alias kdd="kubectl describe deploy"
alias kds="kubectl describe svc"
alias kdn="kubectl describe node"Once completed, logout and login back or just run source $HOME/.bashrc to apply it.
