kubectl-explore VS api

You may want to use https://github.com/keisku/kubectl-explore Not sure if there's an option to copy the output thus.

Like many already have said, kubectl explain. There is a krew plugin that makes it a little bit easier to use: https://github.com/keisku/kubectl-explore

Released v0.3.0 to support the second comment!

I created kei6u/kubectl-explore, a plugin for kubectl to fuzzy-find and explain the field. That's because I think typing the accurate path to the filed is a tedious and typo-prone when using kubectl explain.

Good point, here it is https://github.com/kubernetes/api

Better is probably subjective, but you have options. You can run the doc website locally (https://github.com/kubernetes/website) or search the API definitions directly (https://github.com/kubernetes/api). Good ol `git grep` I suppose.

I understand that I need to do some (un)marshalling of the YAML bytes into the correct API types defined in package: https://github.com/kubernetes/api

Despite that though, someone was generous enough to ensure that there are protobuf files laying around for us to use.

Then we have to create the admissionHandler to receive all the requests from our webhooks. These requests are coming with a JSON-encoded AdmissionReview (with the Request field filled) in the request body. The response should be a JSON AdmissionReview with the Response field filled.

k8s.io/client-go isn’t enough to talk to kubernetes API, you need k8s.io/api and k8s.io/apimachinery too You have to match their versions for it to all work! See the client-go versioning for simple instructions!

You can find the definitions of the AdmissionReview object in k8s.io/api repository.

Note how I am just using the upstream AdmissionReview type from k8s.io/api/admission/v1 here. You can find other Kubernetes types in the k8s.io/api repo as well.
