$ kube-state-metrics -h
Usage of ./kube-state-metrics:
--add_dir_header If true, adds the file directory to the header
--alsologtostderr log to standard error as well as files
--apiserver string The URL of the apiserver to use as a master
--enable-gzip-encoding Gzip responses when requested by clients via 'Accept-Encoding: gzip' header.
-h, --help Print Help text
--host string Host to expose metrics on. (default "0.0.0.0")
--kubeconfig string Absolute path to the kubeconfig file
--log_backtrace_at traceLocation when logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace (default :0)
--log_dir string If non-empty, write log files in this directory
--log_file string If non-empty, use this log file
--log_file_max_size uint Defines the maximum size a log file can grow to. Unit is megabytes. If the value is 0, the maximum file size is unlimited. (default 1800)
--logtostderr log to standard error instead of files (default true)
--metric-allowlist string Comma-separated list of metrics to be exposed. This list comprises of exact metric names and/or regex patterns. The allowlist and denylist are mutually exclusive.
--metric-denylist string Comma-separated list of metrics not to be enabled. This list comprises of exact metric names and/or regex patterns. The allowlist and denylist are mutually exclusive.
--namespace string Comma-separated list of namespaces to be enabled. Defaults to ""
--pod string Name of the pod that contains the kube-state-metrics container. When set, it is expected that --pod and --pod-namespace are both set. Most likely this should be passed via the downward API. This is used for auto-detecting sharding. If set, this has preference over statically configured sharding. This is experimental, it may be removed without notice.
--pod-namespace string Name of the namespace of the pod specified by --pod. When set, it is expected that --pod and --pod-namespace are both set. Most likely this should be passed via the downward API. This is used for auto-detecting sharding. If set, this has preference over statically configured sharding. This is experimental, it may be removed without notice.
--port int Port to expose metrics on. (default 8080)
--resources string Comma-separated list of Resources to be enabled. Defaults to "certificatesigningrequests,configmaps,cronjobs,daemonsets,deployments,endpoints,horizontalpodautoscalers,ingresses,jobs,leases,limitranges,mutatingwebhookconfigurations,namespaces,networkpolicies,nodes,persistentvolumeclaims,persistentvolumes,poddisruptionbudgets,pods,replicasets,replicationcontrollers,resourcequotas,secrets,services,statefulsets,storageclasses,validatingwebhookconfigurations,volumeattachments"
--shard int32 The instances shard nominal (zero indexed) within the total number of shards. (default 0)
--skip_headers If true, avoid header prefixes in the log messages
--skip_log_headers If true, avoid headers when opening log files
--stderrthreshold severity logs at or above this threshold go to stderr (default 2)
--telemetry-host string Host to expose kube-state-metrics self metrics on. (default "0.0.0.0")
--telemetry-port int Port to expose kube-state-metrics self metrics on. (default 8081)
--total-shards int The total number of shards. Sharding is disabled when total shards is set to 1. (default 1)
-v, --v Level number for the log level verbosity
--version kube-state-metrics build version information
--vmodule moduleSpec comma-separated list of pattern=N settings for file-filtered logging
