Overview

Copy files and directories to and from containers.

kubectl cp [some-namespace/]<some-pod>:/path/inside/the/first/container/of/the/pod  /local/path

If the source is a directory, the entire content of the directory is copied recursively.

If the source is a file, then the local path must specify a file name.

A specific container is mentioned with -c <contrainer-name>:

kubectl cp dev-local/k8sdeploy-m-01-84c6947c95-njrlz:/tmp/test-results.xml ./test-results.txt
