COMMAND     PID  USER   FD   TYPE             DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
com.docker 30895 dmitry   27u  IPv6 0x76138f66872a1fdd      0t0  TCP *:terabase (LISTEN)

Scan open ports on a remote machine

sudo nmap -sT -p-  <ip_address>

asdf

Use .default-npm-packages file to install packages globally

Updating a single package in all versions

asdf list nodejs | xargs -I@ env ASDF_NODEJS_VERSION="@" npm install -g $pkg

Updating all packages in all versions

asdf list nodejs | xargs -I@ env ASDF_NODEJS_VERSION="@" npm upgrade -g

Will also can easily parallelize it with the -P xargs option

asdf list nodejs | xargs -I@ -P4 env ASDF_NODEJS_VERSION="@" npm upgrade -g

Kubernetes (k8s)

Get all resources in the given context

# resources: deployment,pods,services,configmaps,secrets,ingress
kubectl --context {context} get pods

Delete resources found by a given search

# -l app=app-name to filter using k8s labels
# | grep something to filter using grep if there are no labels
# | xargs kubectl cmd to run a kubectl command on the results

kubectl get configmap,secrets,deployments,service,ingress -o jsonpath="{range .items[*]}{.kind}/{.metadata.name}{'\n'}{end}" | grep something | xargs kubectl delete
