-f, --filename <File>Filename, directory, or URL to files identifying the resource
-k, --kustomize <Kustomize Dir>Process the kustomization directory. This flag can't be used together with -f or -R
-o, --output <Output Format>Output format. One of: json|yaml|name|go-template|go-template-file|template|templatefile|jsonpath|jsonpath-file
-R, --recursiveProcess the directory used in -f, --filename recursively. Useful when you want to manage related manifests organized within the same directory
