kc

A small program to quickly change the Kubernetes context from the command line.

Usage

kc respects the environment variable KUBECONFIG. If it is not set, it uses ~/.kube/config.

Change Context

To simply change the context, use the following command

kc

Deleting a Context

This function deletes a kubeconfig context. After the context has been deleted, all cluster and user/auth information are scanned, if there are entries without reference in the context, these will be deleted. This is independent of the actual deleted context. A backup file is also created. This is the path with the extension .bak.

kc -d

Merging a other Context file into target Context file.

Sometimes you want to merge another kubeconfig file into the kubeconfig you are using. This function allows to add a file. The added file may overwrite users or clusters with the same name. Also here a backup file is created before.

kc -a NEW_KUBE_CONFIG_FILE
