Add --force and --confirm to `ark backup delete` to support forced backup deletion. This forcibly removes the Ark GC finalizer (if it's present) from a backup and will orphan any resources associated with the backup, such as backup tarballs in object storage, persistent volume snapshots, and restores for the backup. If a backup has a deletion timestamp, display `Deleting` in `ark backup describe` and `ark backup get`. Signed-off-by: Andy Goldstein <andy.goldstein@gmail.com>
Command line reference
The Ark client provides a CLI that allows you to initiate ad-hoc backups, scheduled backups, or restores.
The files in the CLI reference directory in the repository enumerate each of the possible ark commands and their flags.
This information is available in the CLI, using the --help flag.
Running the client
We recommend that you download a pre-built release, but you can also build and run the ark executable.
Kubernetes cluster credentials
In general, Ark will search for your cluster credentials in the following order:
--kubeconfigcommand line flag$KUBECONFIGenvironment variable- In-cluster credentials--this only works when you are running Ark in a pod
