dirk exports KUBECONFIG via direnv

py-dirk

dirk is a tool for Kubernetes administrators who manage a large number of clusters. dirk makes sure that you always communicate with the right kubernetes cluster, even though you switch between many project folders.

py-dirk is the Python implementation of dirk.

Install py-dirk

Install py-dirk like this:

pip install py-dirk

Use dirk

Init dirk for a certain project folder like this:

dirk init <directory>

This command creates a kubeconfig file which will be used by kubectl as long your current working directory is in the project folder. Leaving the project folder will lead to the kubeconfig file to be unloaded.

Example of use

1. Install dirk and minikube.
2. Run example/build_example.sh.
3. Change to example/foo, run

   minikube start -p foo 
   

   and get the node of the minikube cluster

   kubectl get nodes 
   

4. Change to example/bar, run

   minikube start -p bar
   

   and get the node of the minikube cluster

   kubectl get nodes 
   

5. Change to example/foo again and get the node

   minikube start -p foo
   

   As you can see, changing the directory changes the kubeconfig file which is used by kubectl.
