How to delete a kubernetes deployment with kubectl

#kubernetes #kubectl #codever #snippets

First select the deployment name in the current context you, if you don't know it with the following command:

kubectl get deploy
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

You should get a list of deployments similar to the following:

NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE pdv-location-batch-test 0/1 1 0 2m12s connector-partner-service 1/1 1 1 330d
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Then use kubectl delete deploy <deployment name> to delete the deployment, in my case pdv-location-batch-test was the deployment I was looking for:

kubectl delete deploy pdv-location-batch-test
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

You should get something similar to the following:

deployment.apps "pdv-lokation-batch-test" deleted
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
