How to set env with dashes?

How to set env with dashes?

I execute the command:

kubectl set env deployment/service "--cron.updates=0 */10 8-9 * * *"

And get error:

Error: unknown flag: --cron.full-update-check-status See 'oc set env --help' for usage.

How to add environment to service with dashes?

Solution-1:

Use single quotes

kubectl set env deployment/foo  -- "--cron.updates='0 */10 8-9 * * *'"

This would change the env of the pod to:

k exec -it foo-78fff84996-5mskb -- printenv |grep cron.updates
--cron.updates='0 */10 8-9 * * *'

Solution-2:

Disable glob , which would prevent use of single quotes.

You may disable glob and do the following:

set -f #disable glob
kubectl set env deployment/foo  -- "--cron.updates1=0 */10 8-9 * * *"
set +f #enable glob

This would also work, example output:

k exec -it foo-5d4998668b-6gc9j  -- printenv |grep cron.updates
--cron.updates='0 */10 8-9 * * *'
--cron.updates1=0 */10 8-9 * * *
