the docker and kubectl binaries have a filter switch built in. This is fairly basic on docker but good for piping output around for some more complex operations. Like if you have a lot of containers and forgot to add --rm to one of them.

docker ps -aq --filter name=yolo | xargs docker container rm 

Things get a little better with kubectl but not by much. template is nice if you need to get a secret and you're not using encryption.

kubectl get secrets <secret-name> -o template --template='{{ .data.password }}' | base64 -d | pbcopy

If you want something more complex, like identifying a subset of a resource that need to have some action performed on them and then performing that action you usually need a script. This can be done with a one-liner though. The draw back to template is that

age is prefered over pgp. The keydir is different depending on os. for macos:

KEYDIR=${HOME}/Library/Application\ Support/sops/age/
mkdir -p ${KEYDIR}
# note this can be set with SOPS_AGE_KEY_FILE= to a different location if required
# note this has to be keys.txt not key.txt
age-keygen -o ${KEYDIR}/keys.txt

cat keys.txt

I'd originally posted this on stackoverflow a while back but I'm putting it in a gist here

Fixing HEALTH_WARN too many PGs per OSD (352 > max 300) once and for all

When balancing placement groups you must take into account:

Data we need

• pgs per osd
• pgs per pool

Running wsgi with nginx for dummies

This was written while trying to get ceph-dash monitoring flask api to work with nginx, I'm sure some of the concepts here could be applied to 
just about any app you're trying to serve through nginx.

So ever wanted to know how to fix all the problems?

FIX FOR 500 RESPONSE CODE

Nginx is NOT starting any wsgi processes for you, I had to start this server manually. In order to get this to work from uwsgi the full path MUST be given to .wsgi file.
