Considering adding support for grouping by service

[lexiangh1]

Hi, I found the kubectl-view-allocations -g command to be useful. However, it doesn't support grouping by service as kubectl does in kubectl get service. The aggregate performance data among all pods of a service are insightful for performance monitoring and debugging. Is it possible to add that support? Thanks.

Hi,

The main issue is the relationship between the pod (using resources) and the service:

• it's n-n relations: a pod can be used by 0-n service, and service uses 0-n pod (=> how to handle pods linked to 0 or 1+ service?)
• I don't know if there is no API to identify which pod is served by a service (reproducing the pod selector/matcher is too much work IMHO)

VS the simple and direct relationship from a pod to a namespace, resource or node.

TBH, I will not work on it but PR is welcome.
