## **Why**

Simple command to collect all resources related to a specific label saving the output to a single YAML file.  

Later, users can just use ***kubectl apply -f filename.yaml*** to **restore the resources**.

## **Requirements**  

- [kubectl cli](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubectl)  

- [Krew package manager for kubectl](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/krew)      

- [neat plugin for kubectl](https://github.com/itaysk/kubectl-neat)  

## **How to install?**

After installing krew and neat plugin, just copy kubectl-grab_resources to your $PATH/bin

## **How to use?**

  ```

  $ kubectl grab-resources -l LABEL_NAME -o OUTPUT_FILENAME.yaml

  ```

## **Restore your resources**

  ```

  $ kubectl grab-resources -l app=kibana -o kibana-2020-09-16-00:10:25.yaml

  ```

  **Example**(s):  

  - *user deleted kibana resources by mistake*  

 

  ```

  Restoring:  

  $ kubectl apply -f kibana-2020-09-16-00:10:25.yaml

  ```
