kubectl list / delete all completed jobs

11/29/2018

I'm looking for a kubectl command to list / delete all completed jobs

I've try:

kubectl get job --field-selector status.succeeded=1

But I get:

enfield selector "status.succeeded=1": field label "status.succeeded" not supported for batchv1.Jobter code here

What are the possible fields for --fieldSelector when getting jobs ?

Is there a better way to do this ?

What you can do to list all the succeeded jobs is first get all the jobs and then filter the output:

kubectl get job --all-namespaces | grep "succeeded"

If you want to delete all the succeded jobs you can use the following command:

kubectl delete job $(kubectl get job -o=jsonpath='{.items[?(@.status.succeeded==1)].metadata.name}')

FWIW, the following returns all jobs that have failed:

kubectl get jobs $(kubectl get jobs -o=jsonpath='{.items[?(@.status.failed>0)].metadata.name}')

And all jobs that are still running:

kubectl get jobs $(kubectl get jobs -o=jsonpath='{.items[?(@.status.active==1)].metadata.name}')
