k

Just like James Bond's Q, but for kubectl

k is a kubectl helper to deal with different kubernetes envionments

Installation

npm install -g the-k

Usage

k [environment name] ... commands/shorthands

# Without k
kubectl --kubeconfig /Users/max/.bluemix/plugins/container-service/clusters/moo-dev/moo-dev.yml exec -it mypod-abcdef -- /bin/sh

# With k
k dev exec -it mypod-abcdef -- /bin/sh

# With k on steroids
k dev e mypod-abcdef -- /bin/sh

Configuration

The kFile

That what's all about. You need to place a .kfile.json inside your home directory. See below for an example config.
