Resource Management

KubeVision provides a unified CRUD interface for 26+ Kubernetes resource types. Every resource shares the same list, detail, editor, and delete flows — no per-resource code needed.

Supported Resource Types​

Cached (sub-millisecond reads)​

These 8 types are kept in memory via Informer Watch and return instantly:

Pods Deployments Services Nodes Namespaces ConfigMaps Secrets Events

On-Demand (API Server live fetch)​

18+ additional types fetched directly from the API Server:

StatefulSets DaemonSets ReplicaSets Jobs CronJobs Ingresses PersistentVolumes PersistentVolumeClaims StorageClasses ServiceAccounts Roles RoleBindings ClusterRoles ClusterRoleBindings NetworkPolicies HorizontalPodAutoscalers ResourceQuotas LimitRanges

CRD Auto-Discovery​

Custom Resource Definitions are discovered automatically at startup. Any CRD installed in the cluster appears in the sidebar under Custom Resources without any configuration.

List Resources​

Navigate to a resource type in the sidebar. The table supports:

  • Column sorting — click any column header
  • Namespace filter — namespace dropdown in the top bar
  • Live updates — cached types refresh in real time via WebSocket

Get / View a Resource​

Click any row to open the detail view. The detail page shows:

  • Overview tab — key fields rendered as structured cards
  • YAML tab — full resource YAML with syntax highlighting
  • Events tab — related events scoped to this resource

Create a Resource​

  1. Click Create in the top-right of any resource list
  2. Write or paste YAML in the editor (Monaco with Kubernetes schema autocompletion)
  3. Optionally run Dry-Run to validate before applying
  4. Click Apply
# Example: create a ConfigMap inline
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: my-config
  namespace: default
data:
  key: value

Update a Resource​

  1. Open the resource detail page
  2. Click Edit (or switch to the YAML tab and click Edit YAML)
  3. Make changes in the editor
  4. Click Save — KubeVision uses a strategic merge patch

Delete a Resource​

Single delete: open the resource and click Delete in the action bar.

Batch Operations​

Select multiple rows using the checkbox column, then choose from the action bar:

ActionDescription
DeleteDelete all selected resources
RestartTrigger a rolling restart (Deployments, StatefulSets, DaemonSets)
warning

Batch delete is immediate and irreversible. There is no recycle bin.
