<p>Any idea how to get a POD status via Kubernetes REST API for a POD with known name?
I can do it via kubectl by just typing "kubectl get pods --all-namespaces" since the output lists STATUS as a separate column but not sure which REST API to use to get the STATUS of a running pod.
Thank you</p>

<p>When not sure which REST API and the command is known, run the command as below with -v9 option. Note the kubectl supports only a subset of options in imperative way (get, delete, create etc), so it's better to get familiar with the REST API.</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>kubectl -v9 get pods</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The above will output the REST API call. This can be modified appropriately and the output can piped to jq to get subset of the data.</p>
