Diagram of Pod states

[wernight]

I love the diagram on #3312 .

Can we have such a diagram on http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/pod-states/ ?

This is not strictly correct though, because a pod can cease to be "ready" but not die. We've intentionally NOT drawn this as a state-machine because conditions are really orthogonal concepts. We report a singular status as part of kubectl, so maybe we should document THAT, but it's more complicated than this diagram captures.

@dchen1107 @yujuhong since the kubelet drives most of this.

Yes it'd be useful. Reason is especially until wait conditions are implemented, it's difficult to wait for example until a pod is "at least" started, or "at least" running (i.e. may be terminated already).
