ks env add

Add a new environment to a ksonnet application

Synopsis

The add command creates a new environment (specifically for the ksonnet app
whose directory it’s executed in). This environment is cached with the following
info:

1. Name — A string used to uniquely identify the environment.
2. Server — The address and port of a Kubernetes API server (i.e. cluster).
3. Namespace — A Kubernetes namespace. Must already exist on the cluster.
4. Kubernetes API Version — Used to generate a library with compatible type defs.

(1) is mandatory. (2) and (3) can be inferred from $KUBECONFIG, or from the
--kubeconfig or --context flags. Otherwise, (2), (3), and (4) can all be
specified by individual flags. Unless otherwise specified, (4) defaults to the
latest Kubernetes version that ksonnet supports.

Note that an environment DOES NOT contain user-specific data such as private keys.

Related Commands

• ks env list — List all environments in a ksonnet application
• ks env rm — Delete an environment from a ksonnet application
• ks env set — Set environment-specific fields (name, namespace, server)
• ks param set — Set environment-specific fields (name, namespace, server)
• ks apply — Apply local Kubernetes manifests (components) to remote clusters

Syntax

ks env add <env-name> [flags]

Examples

# Initialize a new environment, called "staging". No flags are set, so 'server'
# and 'namespace' info are pulled from the file specified by $KUBECONFIG.
# 'version' defaults to the latest that ksonnet supports.
ks env add us-west/staging
# Initialize a new environment called "us-west/staging" with the pre-existing
# namespace 'staging'. 'version' is specified, so the OpenAPI spec from the
# Kubernetes v1.7.1 build is used to generate the helper library 'ksonnet-lib'.
#
# NOTE: "us-west/staging" indicates a hierarchical structure, so the env-specific
# files here are saved in "<ksonnet-app-root>/environments/us-west/staging".
ks env add us-west/staging --api-spec=version:v1.7.1 --namespace=staging
# Initialize a new environment "my-env" using the "dev" context in your current
# kubeconfig file ($KUBECONFIG).
ks env add my-env --context=dev
# Initialize a new environment "prod" using the address of a cluster's Kubernetes
# API server.
ks env add prod --server=https://ksonnet-1.us-west.elb.amazonaws.com

Options

      --api-spec string                Manually specify API version from OpenAPI schema, cluster, or Kubernetes version
      --as string                      Username to impersonate for the operation
      --as-group stringArray           Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups.
      --certificate-authority string   Path to a cert file for the certificate authority
      --client-certificate string      Path to a client certificate file for TLS
      --client-key string              Path to a client key file for TLS
      --cluster string                 The name of the kubeconfig cluster to use
      --context string                 The name of the kubeconfig context to use
  -h, --help                           help for add
      --insecure-skip-tls-verify       If true, the server's certificate will not be checked for validity. This will make your HTTPS connections insecure
      --kubeconfig string              Path to a kubeconfig file. Alternative to env var $KUBECONFIG.
  -n, --namespace string               If present, the namespace scope for this CLI request
  -o, --override                       Add environment as override
      --password string                Password for basic authentication to the API server
      --request-timeout string         The length of time to wait before giving up on a single server request. Non-zero values should contain a corresponding time unit (e.g. 1s, 2m, 3h). A value of zero means don't timeout requests. (default "0")
      --server string                  The address and port of the Kubernetes API server
      --token string                   Bearer token for authentication to the API server
      --user string                    The name of the kubeconfig user to use
      --username string                Username for basic authentication to the API server

      --tls-skip-verify   Skip verification of TLS server certificates
  -v, --verbose count     Increase verbosity. May be given multiple times.
