How to fetch Kubeaudit output in text file?

[ridhika1628]

I am trying to run below command

kubeaudit all

Want to get the output in some text file so that if there are "level=error" in auditing will make it as fail.

Hi @ridhika1628 ,

Kubeaudit exits with exit code 2 (customizable via the exitcode flag) if there are any errors, so if you're running it in a script you can determine if kubeaudit passed or failed that way.

If you want to write the Kubeaudit output to file you can redirect the output to a file:

kubeaudit all --format json > output.txt

Does that work for you?

It looks like you're using an older version of kubeaudit. Can you follow the installation instructions to install the latest version of kubeaudit? You'll know you have the right one if you can run the version command:

$ kubeaudit version
0.14.2
