Table: kubernetes_endpoint - Query Kubernetes Endpoints using SQL

Kubernetes Endpoints are a part of the Kubernetes Service concept that represents a real or virtual IP address and a port number that Kubernetes pods use to access services. Endpoints can be defined as a network endpoint that can receive traffic. They are a fundamental part of the Kubernetes networking model, allowing pods to communicate with each other and with services outside the Kubernetes cluster.

Table Usage Guide

The kubernetes_endpoint table provides insights into endpoints within Kubernetes. As a DevOps engineer, you can explore details about each endpoint through this table, including its associated services, IP addresses, and ports. Use this table to understand the communication paths within your Kubernetes cluster, track the status of endpoints, and identify any potential networking issues.

Examples

Basic Info

Explore which Kubernetes endpoints are currently active in your system. This can help you understand the communication points within your clusters and troubleshoot any networking issues.

select
name,
namespace,
subsets
from
kubernetes_endpoint;
select
name,
namespace,
subsets
from
kubernetes_endpoint;

Endpoint IP Info

Determine the areas in which endpoint IP information, such as address, readiness status and protocol, is used in your Kubernetes environment. This can aid in network troubleshooting and enhancing security measures.

select
name,
namespace,
addr ->> 'ip' as address,
nr_addr ->> 'ip' as not_ready_address,
port -> 'port' as port,
port ->> 'protocol' as protocol
from
kubernetes_endpoint,
jsonb_array_elements(subsets) as subset
left join jsonb_array_elements(subset -> 'addresses') as addr on true
left join jsonb_array_elements(subset -> 'notReadyAddresses') as nr_addr on true
left join jsonb_array_elements(subset -> 'ports') as port on true;
select
kubernetes_endpoint.name,
kubernetes_endpoint.namespace,
json_extract(addr.value, '$.ip') as address,
json_extract(nr_addr.value, '$.ip') as not_ready_address,
json_extract(port.value, '$.port') as port,
json_extract(port.value, '$.protocol') as protocol
from
kubernetes_endpoint,
json_each(kubernetes_endpoint.subsets) as subset,
json_each(json_extract(subset.value, '$.addresses')) as addr,
json_each(json_extract(subset.value, '$.notReadyAddresses')) as nr_addr,
json_each(json_extract(subset.value, '$.ports')) as port;

List manifest resources

Explore which Kubernetes endpoints have a specified path. This is useful to understand the distribution of resources within your Kubernetes environment.

select
name,
namespace,
subsets,
path
from
kubernetes_endpoint
where
path is not null;
select
name,
namespace,
subsets,
path
from
kubernetes_endpoint
where
path is not null;

Schema for kubernetes_endpoint

NameTypeOperatorsDescription
_ctxjsonbSteampipe context in JSON form, e.g. connection_name.
annotationsjsonbAnnotations is an unstructured key value map stored with a resource that may be set by external tools to store and retrieve arbitrary metadata.
context_nametextKubectl config context name.
creation_timestamptimestamp with time zoneCreationTimestamp is a timestamp representing the server time when this object was created.
deletion_grace_period_secondsbigintNumber of seconds allowed for this object to gracefully terminate before it will be removed from the system. Only set when deletionTimestamp is also set.
deletion_timestamptimestamp with time zoneDeletionTimestamp is RFC 3339 date and time at which this resource will be deleted.
end_linebigintThe path to the manifest file.
finalizersjsonbMust be empty before the object is deleted from the registry. Each entry is an identifier for the responsible component that will remove the entry from the list. If the deletionTimestamp of the object is non-nil, entries in this list can only be removed.
generate_nametextGenerateName is an optional prefix, used by the server, to generate a unique name ONLY IF the Name field has not been provided.
generationbigintA sequence number representing a specific generation of the desired state.
labelsjsonbMap of string keys and values that can be used to organize and categorize (scope and select) objects. May match selectors of replication controllers and services.
nametextName of the object. Name must be unique within a namespace.
namespacetextNamespace defines the space within which each name must be unique.
owner_referencesjsonbList of objects depended by this object. If ALL objects in the list have been deleted, this object will be garbage collected. If this object is managed by a controller, then an entry in this list will point to this controller, with the controller field set to true. There cannot be more than one managing controller.
pathtextThe path to the manifest file.
resource_versiontextAn opaque value that represents the internal version of this object that can be used by clients to determine when objects have changed.
source_typetextThe source of the resource. Possible values are: deployed and manifest. If the resource is fetched from the spec file the value will be manifest.
start_linebigintThe path to the manifest file.
subsetsjsonbList of addresses and ports that comprise a service.
tagsjsonbA map of tags for the resource. This includes both labels and annotations.
titletextTitle of the resource.
uidtextUID is the unique in time and space value for this object.

Export

This table is available as a standalone Exporter CLI. Steampipe exporters are stand-alone binaries that allow you to extract data using Steampipe plugins without a database.

You can download the tarball for your platform from the Releases page, but it is simplest to install them with the steampipe_export_installer.sh script:

/bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://steampipe.io/install/export.sh)" -- kubernetes

You can pass the configuration to the command with the --config argument:

steampipe_export_kubernetes --config '<your_config>' kubernetes_endpoint
