Is it possible to disable secrets polling?

[felixdo]

Hi. With my kubernetes user I dont have access to secrets. Can I somehow disable secrets in kubernetes-el?

Hi @felixdo, could you go into a bit more detail on the behavior you're seeing? This sounds like a useful feature request.

Hey, sure, so I just M-x kubernetes-overview and get this error directly in the overview buffer and also in the messages:

Error from server (Forbidden): secrets is forbidden: User "xxxxxxxx" cannot list resource "secrets" in API group "" in the namespace "yyyyyy". I'm not surprised about the error, this is expected, since my user can't access secrets.

Many ways to tackle this, but the best would probably be to stop polling after a 401 and fill the respective section with "secrets is forbidden" once. Then, when switching namespaces, polling could start again (e.g. if there's users that cannot access secrets in some but not other contexts).
