K9s provides a curses based terminal UI to interact with your Kubernetes clusters. The aim of this project is to make it easier to navigate, observe and manage your applications. This command line app continually watches Kubernetes for changes and offers subsequent commands to interact with observed resources.
brew tap derailed/k9s && brew install k9s- K9s uses 2 or 3 letters alias to navigate most K8s resource
- At any time you can use
?<Enter>to look up the various commands - Use
alias<Enter>to activate a resource under that alias Ctrlsequences are used to view, edit, delete, ssh ...- Use
ctx<Enter>to switch between clusters - Use
QorCtrl-Cto Quit.
This initial drop is brittle. k9s will most likely blow up if...
- Your kube-config file does not live under $HOME/.kube or you use multiple configs
- You don't have enough RBAC fu to manage your cluster
- Your cluster does not run a metrics-server
This is still work in progress! If there is enough interest in the Kubernetes community, we will enhance per your recommendations/contributions. Also if you dig this effort, please let us know that too!
k9s sits on top of two very cool GO projects that provides the much needed terminal support. So big thanks and shootout to the good folks at tcell+tview for making k9s a reality!!
