Fetching Cluster Images

It may be difficult to understand exactly what content is actively within your environment. Below is a simple way to generate a list of all images running in your environment, store it as an environment variable, and show the list by echoing the environment variable.

Fetch Cluster Images​

# fetch all images in the cluster, remove duplicates, alphabetize, and put on a newline
export IMAGE_LIST=$(kubectl get pods --all-namespaces -o jsonpath="{.items[*].spec.containers[*].image}" | sed 's/ /\n/g' | sort | uniq)

Example Output​

# view the list of images from the cluster
echo $IMAGE_LIST
index.docker.io/rancher/hardened-etcd:v3.5.1-k3s1-build20220112
index.docker.io/rancher/hardened-kubernetes:v1.23.5-rke2r1-build20220316
index.docker.io/rancher/rke2-cloud-provider:v0.0.3-build20211118
rancher/hardened-calico:v3.21.4-build20220228
rancher/hardened-cluster-autoscaler:v1.8.5-build20211119
rancher/hardened-coredns:v1.9.1-build20220318
rancher/hardened-flannel:v0.17.0-build20220317
rancher/hardened-k8s-metrics-server:v0.5.0-build20211119
rancher/klipper-helm:v0.7.0-build20220315
rancher/nginx-ingress-controller:nginx-1.0.2-hardened4

Generate Hauler Manifest​

# add the required formatting for the image list
export IMAGE_LIST_MODIFIED=$(echo "${IMAGE_LIST} | sed 's/^/    - name: /'")

# create the hauler manifest with the updated image list
cat << EOF >> hauler-manifest.yaml
apiVersion: content.hauler.cattle.io/v1alpha1
kind: Images
metadata:
  name: hauler-cluster-images
spec:
  images:
$IMAGE_LIST_MODIFIED
EOF

Resulting Hauler Manifest​
