kubectl rbac-tool gen is written to stderr

[kahirokunn]

What happened:

I tried to redirect the file with the following command, but the result was displayed on the screen and test.yaml was empty.

kubectl rbac-tool gen --deny-resources=secrets. --allowed-verbs=get,list,watch > test.yaml

However, the following command works fine.

kubectl rbac-tool gen --deny-resources=secrets. --allowed-verbs=get,list,watch 2> test.yaml

I thought that outputting the result to stderr might be a bug, but there might be circumstances that I don't know about. Why is it being output to the error?

What you expected to happen:

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Anything else we need to know?:

Environment:

• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version):
• Cloud provider or configuration:
• Install tools:
• Others:

@kahirokunn - thanks for submitting - this is indeed something that should be fixed.

If you'd like to PR a fix - we'd be happy to review - otherwise - we will fix it in one of the coming releases
