Overview

This container provides the Kubernetes client kubectl which can be used to interact with a Kubernetes cluster

docker run --rm jamesbowling/k8s-cli:``git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD`` --server=http://<server-name>:8080 get pods

Data Container

In order to get kube spec files accessible via the kubectl container please use the following data container that exposes a data volume under /data. It dumps everything under cwd in the data container.

cat ~/bin/mk-data-container 
#!/usr/bin/env sh

WORKDIR="$1"

if [ -z $WORKDIR ]; then
    WORKDIR='.'
fi

cd $WORKDIR
echo "FROM debian:jessie\n\nVOLUME [ '/data' ]\n\nCOPY * /data/" > ./Dockerfile.data-container
docker rm data
docker build -f ./Dockerfile.data-container -t temp/data .
docker run --name data temp/data
rm ./Dockerfile.data-container
