Kubectl Config Switcher (kcs)

A zsh plugin to switch via KUBECONFIG env variable between kubectl config files located in ~/.kube/

Description

I have different kubectl config files in my ~/.kube directory and I swtich to them by terminal window for different profile.

kubectl-config-switch (kcs) help you moving between them with fzf. The last used config is always a ENTER away.

Usage

• Load the plugin with your favourite zsh plugin manager or simply source the kubectl-config-switcher.plugin.zsh file
• use the kcs command and it will ask which profile to choose with fzf
• you can do a kcs -l to simply just list the profiles
• you can do a kcs -L to set it to the last kubeconfig that was chosen previously.

Requirement

• fzf
• kubectl
• some kubernetes config files in ~/.kube named as ~/.kube/config.${PROFILE_NAME}

Powerlevel10k Integration

the KCS_PROFILE env variable is exported so you can show it nicely in your prompt, for example with powerlevel9/10k add this to your configuration :

  typeset -g POWERLEVEL9K_KUBECONTEXT_DEFAULT_CONTENT_EXPANSION='%F{13}${${${:-$KCS_PROFILE}:-$P9K_KUBECONTEXT_CLUSTER}}%f'
  POWERLEVEL9K_KUBECONTEXT_DEFAULT_CONTENT_EXPANSION+='/%F{3}${${:-$P9K_KUBECONTEXT_NAMESPACE}:-default}%f'

it will look like this :
