Access K8S rest API using curl command

 To get all the pods from a namespace,

curl -k --cacert ca.crt -H "Authorization: Bearer <The token>" https://172.19.0.3:6443/api/v1/namespaces/metallb-system/pods

Where the IP address and port should be the k8s api server IP and port, then the url should follow the naming convention which should be always

/api/<version>/namespaces/<namespace>/<resourcetype>

in the example above, the version is v1, namespace is metallb-system and we are trying to get all the pods.

Use --cacert to indicate an ca certificate file and use -k to allow insecure server connections when use ssl.
