      --kube-api-burst int       Maximum burst for throttling requests to the Kubernetes API server (0 keeps the client-go default of 10).
      --kube-api-qps float32     Maximum queries-per-second to the Kubernetes API server (0 keeps the client-go default of 5).
  -v, --log-level string         Log level (1-5). (default "1")

Controller flags:

      --leader-election-namespace string      Namespace to use for controller leader election. (default "cert-manager")
      --metrics-bind-address string           TCP address for exposing HTTP Prometheus metrics which will be served on the HTTP path '/metrics'. The value "0" will disable exposing metrics. (default ":9402")
      --readiness-probe-bind-address string   TCP address for exposing the HTTP readiness probe which will be served on the HTTP path '/readyz'. (default ":6060")

Cert-manager flags:

      --certificate-request-duration duration   The duration which is enforced for requests to have. (default 1h0m0s)
      --issuer-group string                     Group of issuer which is matched against to evaluate on. (default "cert-manager.io")
      --issuer-kind string                      Kind of issuer which is matched against to evaluate on. (default "ClusterIssuer")

      --multi-tenancy                           Enable strict multi-tenancy support where namespace name has to match with the domain name.
      --trust-domain string                     The trust domain this approver ensures is present on requests. (default "cluster.local")

Kubernetes flags:

      --as string                      Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a regular user or a service account in a namespace.
      --as-group stringArray           Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups.
      --as-uid string                  UID to impersonate for the operation.
      --as-user-extra stringArray      User extras to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple values for the same key.
      --cache-dir string               Default cache directory (default "/tmp/.kube/cache")
      --certificate-authority string   Path to a cert file for the certificate authority
      --client-certificate string      Path to a client certificate file for TLS
      --client-key string              Path to a client key file for TLS
      --cluster string                 The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use
      --context string                 The name of the kubeconfig context to use
      --disable-compression            If true, opt-out of response compression for all requests to the server
      --insecure-skip-tls-verify       If true, the server's certificate will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections insecure
      --kubeconfig string              Path to the kubeconfig file to use for CLI requests.
  -n, --namespace string               If present, the namespace scope for this CLI request
      --proxy-url string               Proxy URL to use for requests to the API server
      --request-timeout string         The length of time to wait before giving up on a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corresponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't timeout requests. (default "0")
  -s, --server string                  The address and port of the Kubernetes API server
      --tls-server-name string         Server name to use for server certificate validation. If it is not provided, the hostname used to contact the server is used
