<p>I'm trying to use the Python Kubernetes Client to get the run-time of each container for all my pods. Using the K8s CLI this information is available by using <code>kubectl describe pods</code>. </p>

<p>I can get the output for a single pod by using </p>

<pre class="lang-py prettyprint-override"><code>api_response = api_instance.read_namespaced_pod(name='pod-name',namespace='namespace-name')
</code></pre>

<p>However, I need this information for all the pods. </p>

<p>What is the equivalent of <code>kubectl get pods</code>for Python K8s library? I'm thinking I can use this to create a list of pods and use the mentioned command above to loop through them by their pod-name and get the required information. </p>

<p>From the <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python/blob/master/kubernetes/docs/CoreV1Api.md#list_namespaced_pod" rel="nofollow noreferrer">docs</a> you can try this <code>api_response = api_instance.list_namespaced_pod(namespace='namespace-name')</code></p>
