OCL (OpenShift Login)

PyPI PyPI platforms PyPI - License Release and Package Application

OCL does an automatic login to an OpenShift cluster. It fetches cluster information from app-interface and performs a login via Red Hat SSO.

Installation

You can install this tool from PyPI with pip:

python3 -m pip install openshift-cluster-login

or install it with uv:

uv tool install openshift-cluster-login

You can also use uv to run the tool without installing it:

uvx openshift-cluster-login

Usage

ocl

This spawns a new shell with the following environment variables are set:

  • KUBECONFIG - path to kubeconfig file
  • OCL_CLUSTER_NAME - cluster name
  • OCL_CLUSTER_CONSOLE - url to cluster console

Features

OCL currently provides the following features (get help with -h or --help):

  • OpenShift console login (oc login) via GitHub or Red Hat authentication
  • Get cluster and namespace information from app-interface or user-defined (OCL_USER_CLUSTERS)
  • Open the OpenShift console in the browser (--open-in-browser)
  • Star your most often used namespaces Ctrl+S in the UI
  • Shell completion (--install-completion, --show-completion)
  • Credentials via environment variables or shell command (e.g., 1password CLI)
  • Cache App-Interface queries (via GraphQL) for one week

Environment Variables

Variable Name Description Default
OCL_APP_INTERFACE_URL OCL_APP_INTERFACE_URL_COMMAND App-Interface URL
OCL_APP_INT_TOKEN OCL_APP_INT_TOKEN_COMMAND App-Interface authentication token [optional]
OCL_USER_CLUSTERS OCL_USER_CLUSTERS_COMMAND User defined clusters as json format (e.g. [{"name": "local-kind", "serverUrl": "https://localhost:6443", "consoleUrl": "not available}]) "[]"
OCL_CACHE_TIMEOUT_MINUTES GraphQL cache timeout in minutes 1 hour
OCL_HISTORY Enable/Disable the usage of the last selected namespace enabled
OCL_CSS_PATH Path to custom Textual CSS file

You can either set a variable, e.g. export OCL_GITHUB_USERNAME="mail@example.com" or retrieve it via a command, e.g. export OCL_GITHUB_USERNAME_COMMAND="op read op://Private/Github/username". If a variable is not set but needed, OCL will ask for it interactively.

App-Interface

OCL retrieves the cluster information from app-interface via GraphQL (OCL_APP_INTERFACE_URL) and caches them in your user cache directory (on MacOS, e.g., ~/Library/Caches/ocl/gql_cache/). Remove this directory to force a refresh.

Limitations

  • Kerberos authentication only
  • Works only with a Red Hat associate account

Development

Code style: black Checked with mypy
