Show/Follow Logs Commands Throw JSONPath Parse Error

Attempting to follow or show a pods logs either from the Command Menu or from the Sidebar menu is throwing an exception related to JSON parsing:

Failed to get containers in pod: error: error parsing jsonpath {'NAME\tIMAGE\n'}{range .spec.containers[*]}{.name}{'\t'}{.image}{'\n'}{end}, unrecognized character in action: U+0027 '''

This prevents all attempts to view logs using this extensions tools. Other commands seem to function properly.

I am encountering this when working with namespaced pods as well as in minikube. I am working with a Kubernetes server on version 1.6 in both instances. Is this to old for this tool? In prior releases of this tool showing logs was functioning as expected and I was able to see my pods logs.

Okay, it looks like the existing quoting is the only form that works on Windows, and the switched quoting is the only form that works on Mac, and both work on Linux! So we’ll keep the existing quoting on Windows, but used the switched quoting elsewhere. #smdh

Thanks for flagging this. I don’t know why it suddenly changed in the most recent version, but appreciate you taking the time to report it and to track down the problem. A fix is on the way!

Thanks, that’s great info. I’ve been trying to get to a Mac to re-test this - thanks for getting in there first! I’ll test out the switched quotes on Windows and Linux; and if I need different quotes on different platforms then I can do that! I should have access to a Mac on Monday so will aim to get a fix in then. Again, thanks for the investigation and for your patience!
