415 Unsupported Media Type Error when Patching Node

[zyx990426]

Hi, I tried to use the patchNode function (https://kubernetes-client.github.io/javascript/classes/corev1api.corev1api-1.html#patchnode) to patch a node. However, I kept getting the 415 error. I have tried the suggested solution to add content-type header as 'application/json-patch+json' or 'application/merge-patch+json', but none of these works.

Could someone help me on this by giving a successful example of using PatchNode? Thank you very much!

The example here: https://github.com/kubernetes-client/javascript/blob/master/examples/patch-example.js should work, it is for a Pod but it should be easy to adapt to nodes instead.

Let us know if that doesn't work.

I am seeing the same issue with patching deployments. Using version 0.16.3 works but on the latest release (0.18.1) I cannot override the content-type header. I have tried following the example stated above and many other.

Right now my only workaround is to use 0.16.3 and override the header like this:

async function annotateDeployment (deploymentName, namespace='default'){
  const headers = { 'content-type': 'application/strategic-merge-patch+json' }
  const body = {"metadata":{"annotations":{"foo":"bar"}}}

  res = await appsApi.patchNamespacedDeployment(deploymentName, namespace, body, undefined, undefined, undefined, undefined, { headers })
  return res
}

Thanks to this comment https://github.com/kubernetes-client/javascript/issues/19#issuecomment-582886605 for pinning a working version.

@Inshaal93 You can use 0.18.1. Function patchNamespacedDeployment receive 9 parameters, thus the options param should be the last one. For example:

const headers = { 'Content-type': k8s.PatchUtils.PATCH_FORMAT_STRATEGIC_MERGE_PATCH };
await appsApi.patchNamespacedDeployment(deploymentName, namespace, body, undefined, undefined, undefined, undefined, undefined, {headers})

[Inshaal93]

const headers = { 'Content-type': k8s.PatchUtils.PATCH_FORMAT_STRATEGIC_MERGE_PATCH };
await appsApi.patchNamespacedDeployment(deploymentName, namespace, body, undefined, undefined, undefined, undefined, undefined, {headers})

This did work, thank you @noomz for this! Does that mean the documentation for the endpoint is incorrect? It clearly states there are only 8 parameters for patchNamespacedDeployment? Not to mention the example referenced above as well.

@Inshaal93 I guess the doc is not updated ;(

For those following this issue, I just tried the 1.0.0-rc4 release and it seems this is gonna be fixed.

Also, no more undefined argument to pass to the function:

await appsAPI.patchNamespacedDeployment({
    name,
    namespace,
    body: jsonPatch,
});
