Configuring Kubeconfig

To administrate your Kubernetes cluster from Gitpod, you need to add your Kubeconfig to your Gitpod workspace. There are two ways to do it:

• Copying the content of your kubeconfig file into a ~/.kube/config file in your Gitpod workspace.

  nano ~/.kube/config

• Adding your kubeconfig as a Gitpod

Gitpod supports encrypted, user-specific environment variables. They are stored as part of your user settings and can be used to set access tokens, or pass any other kind of user-specific information to your workspaces.

To do it you need to follow this steps:

1. Convert Kubeconfig to base64

   cat kubeconfig | base64 -w 0

2. Using GitPod variables to define a K8S_CTX variable with the content of your kubeconfig in base64 as value:

   

   This project is configured to extract the kubeconfig from the value of K8S_CTX and inject it in the ~/.kube/config file:

   .gitpod.yml:

   tasks:
       - name: Set K8s context
       command: echo $KUBECONFIG | base64 -d > ~/.kube/config
