How to fetch and export results

Kubesonde records probes in the controller. You read them over the controller's HTTP API after port-forwarding.

Wait until probing is complete

Fetching too early returns empty or partial data. Wait for the Complete condition:

kubectl wait --for=condition=Complete kubesonde/kubesonde-sample --timeout=300s

Or check the count directly:

kubectl get kubesondes

Port-forward the controller

kubectl --namespace kubesonde-system \
  port-forward deployment.apps/kubesonde-controller-manager 2709 &

Download the probes

curl -s localhost:2709/probes > probes.json

This JSON is what you upload to the hosted UI or load into the bundled frontend.

Check completeness programmatically

The controller also exposes a status endpoint:

curl -s localhost:2709/probes/status

{
  "complete": true,
  "count": 228,
  "window": 30000000000,
  "secondsSinceLastChange": 42.5
}

• complete — whether the probe count has been stable for the quiescence window.
• count — number of probes recorded so far.
• window — the quiescence window in nanoseconds (30s = 30000000000).
• secondsSinceLastChange — how long the count has been unchanged.

See Probe completeness for what "complete" means and why the controller keeps probing afterward.
