Escafil
Escafil is a minimal client for the Kubernetes API:
from escafil import Kubernetes, APIObject
kube = Kubernetes('http://localhost:8001')
class Pod(APIObject):
pass
kube.list(Pod)
pod = kube.get(Pod, 'my-pod', namespace='default')
print(pod['spec']['containers'][0]['name'])
The API is not yet stable; use at your own risk.
