delete-k8s-namespace.sh

# 1. Open Shell window 1
namespace="annoying-namespace-to-delete"

# 2. Dump the namespace into a data file
kubectl get namespace ${namespace} -o json > tmp.json

# 3. Edit the namespace manually and make all the finalizers an empty array

# 4. Start kubectl proxy so we can use curl commands instead of kubectl (which doesn't work)
kubectl proxy --port=8787

# 5. Open another terminal and go to the directory you dumped tmp.json into
namespace="annoying-namespace-to-delete"

# 6. Make REST request to PUT the updated json in the k8s master
curl -k -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT --data-binary @tmp.json http://127.0.0.1:8787/api/v1/namespaces/${namespace}/finalize

# 7. Cancel kubectl proxy in shell window 1

# 8. High five yourself!
