step by step

defining clusters

$ kubectl config set-cluster k8s-cluster --server=127.0.0.1:8087

modify server

$ kubectl config set-cluster NAME --server=https://10.69.114.92:6443

# or
$ kubectl config set-cluster $(kubectl config current-context) --server=https://10.69.114.92:6443

defining users

  • using token
    $ kubectl config set-credentials my-user --token=Py93bt12mT
    
  • using basic authentication

    $ kubectl config set-credentials my-user --username=redhat-username --password=redhat-password
    
  • using certificates

    $ kubectl config set-credentials my-user --client-certificate=redhat-certificate.crt --client-key=redhat-key.key
    

defining contexts

$ kubectl config set-context --cluster=k8s-cluster --user=my-user
  • by namespace
    $ kubectl config set-context my-context --cluster=k8s-cluster --user=my-user --namespace=redhat-dev
    

setup default namespace

$ kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=<my_namespace>

use contexts

$ kubectl config use-context my-context
  • verify

    $ kubectl config get-contexts
    CURRENT   NAME            CLUSTER           AUTHINFO      NAMESPACE
    *         my-context      172.0.7.2:6443    my-user       redhat-dev
              my-context-2    172.1.8.0:6443    my-user-2
    
    $ kubectl config current-context
    my-context
    

OpenID Connect ( OIDC )

[!NOTE|label:references:]

  • Option 1 - OIDC Authenticator
    $ kubectl config set-credentials USER_NAME \
              --auth-provider=oidc \
              --auth-provider-arg=idp-issuer-url=( issuer url ) \
              --auth-provider-arg=client-id=( your client id ) \
              --auth-provider-arg=client-secret=( your client secret ) \
              --auth-provider-arg=refresh-token=( your refresh token ) \
              --auth-provider-arg=idp-certificate-authority=( path to your ca certificate ) \
              --auth-provider-arg=id-token=( your id_token )
    
echo "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

## set cluster

## set context
kubectl config set-context kubernetes-staging --cluster=kubernetes-staging --user=marslo@kubernetes-staging

## use context
kubectl config use-context kubernetes-staging

Configure Access to Multiple Clusters

[!TIP] a configuration file describes clusters, users, and contexts

  • set clusters

    # cluster development
    $ kubectl config --kubeconfig=config-demo \
                     set-cluster development \
                     --server=https://1.2.3.4 \
                     --certificate-authority=fake-ca-file
    
    # cluster test
    $ kubectl config --kubeconfig=config-demo \
                     set-cluster test \

                     --insecure-skip-tls-verify
    
  • set user

    • To delete a user you can run kubectl --kubeconfig=config-demo config unset users.<name>
    • To remove a cluster, you can run kubectl --kubeconfig=config-demo config unset clusters.<name>
    • To remove a context, you can run kubectl --kubeconfig=config-demo config unset contexts.<name>

Create a second configuration file

  • KUBECONFIG environment variable

    • linux
      $ export KUBECONFIG_SAVED="$KUBECONFIG"
      
    • windows
      > $Env:KUBECONFIG_SAVED=$ENV:KUBECONFIG
      
  • temporarily append two paths to your kubeconfig environment variable

    • linux
      $ export KUBECONFIG="${KUBECONFIG}:config-demo:config-demo-2"
      
    • windows
      > $Env:KUBECONFIG=("config-demo;config-demo-2")
      
  • Append $HOME/.kube/config to your KUBECONFIG environment variable

    • linux
      $ export KUBECONFIG="${KUBECONFIG}:${HOME}/.kube/config"
      
    • windows
      > $Env:KUBECONFIG="$Env:KUBECONFIG;$HOME\.kube\config"
      

Clean up
