kube-ps1: Kubernetes prompt for bash and zsh
============================================

A script that lets you add the current Kubernetes context and namespace
configured on `kubectl` to your Bash/Zsh prompt strings (i.e. the `$PS1`).

Inspired by several tools used to simplify usage of `kubectl`.

## Installing

### MacOS

Homebrew package manager:

```
$ brew update
$ brew install kube-ps1
```
### From Source

1. Clone this repository
2. Source the kube-ps1.sh in your `~/.zshrc` or your `~/.bashrc`

### Arch Linux
AUR Package available at [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kube-ps1/](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kube-ps1/).

#### Zsh
```sh
source /path/to/kube-ps1.sh
PROMPT='$(kube_ps1)'$PROMPT
```
#### Bash
```sh
source /path/to/kube-ps1.sh
PS1='[\u@\h \W $(kube_ps1)]\$ '
```

### Zsh Plugin Managers

#### Using [zplugin](https://github.com/zdharma/zplugin)

Update `.zshrc` with:
```sh
zplugin light jonmosco/kube-ps1
PROMPT='$(kube_ps1)'$PROMPT
```

## Requirements

The default prompt assumes you have the `kubectl` command line utility installed.
Official installation instructions and binaries are available:

[Install and Set up kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/)

If using this with OpenShift, the `oc` tool needs installed.  It can be obtained
from brew ports:

```
brew install openshift-cli
```
or the source can be downloaded:

[OC Client Tools](https://www.openshift.org/download.html)

Set the binary to `oc` with the following environment variable:

```
KUBE_PS1_BINARY=oc
```

If neither binary is available, the prompt will print the following:

```
(<symbol>|BINARY-N/A:N/A)
```

## Helper utilities

There are several great tools that make using kubectl very enjoyable:

- [`kubectx` and `kubens`](https://github.com/ahmetb/kubectx) are great for
fast switching between clusters and namespaces.

## Tmux port

I have begun porting kube-ps1 to tmux as a status line plugin.  If you prefer
tmux, and like the functionality provided by kube-ps1, checkout the
[kube-tmux](https://github.com/jonmosco/kube-tmux) project

## Prompt Structure

The default prompt layout is:

```
(<symbol>|<context>:<namespace>)
```

If the current-context is not set, kube-ps1 will return the following:

```
(<symbol>|N/A:N/A)
```

## Enabling/Disabling

If you want to stop showing Kubernetes status on your prompt string temporarily
run `kubeoff`. To disable the prompt for all shell sessions, run `kubeoff -g`.
You can enable it again in the current shell by running `kubeon`, and globally
with `kubeon -g`.

```
kubeon     : turn on kube-ps1 status for this shell.  Takes precedence over
             global setting for current session
kubeon -g  : turn on kube-ps1 status globally
kubeoff    : turn off kube-ps1 status for this shell. Takes precedence over
             global setting for current session
kubeoff -g : turn off kube-ps1 status globally
```

## Customization

The default settings can be overridden in `~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc` by setting
the following environment variables:

| Variable | Default | Meaning |
| :------- | :-----: | ------- |
| `KUBE_PS1_BINARY` | `kubectl` | Default Kubernetes binary |
| `KUBE_PS1_NS_ENABLE` | `true` | Display the namespace. If set to `false`, this will also disable `KUBE_PS1_DIVIDER` |
| `KUBE_PS1_PREFIX` | `(` | Prompt opening character  |
| `KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_ENABLE` | `true ` | Display the prompt Symbol. If set to `false`, this will also disable `KUBE_PS1_SEPARATOR` |
| `KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_PADDING` | `false` | Adds a space (padding) after the symbol to prevent clobbering prompt characters |
| `KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_DEFAULT` | `⎈ ` | Default prompt symbol. Unicode `\u2388` |
| `KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_USE_IMG` | `false` | ☸️  ,  Unicode `\u2638` as the prompt symbol |
| `KUBE_PS1_SEPARATOR` | &#124; | Separator between symbol and context name |
| `KUBE_PS1_DIVIDER` | `:` | Separator between context and namespace |
| `KUBE_PS1_SUFFIX` | `)` | Prompt closing character |
| `KUBE_PS1_CLUSTER_FUNCTION` | No default, must be user supplied | Function to customize how cluster is displayed |
| `KUBE_PS1_NAMESPACE_FUNCTION` | No default, must be user supplied | Function to customize how namespace is displayed |
| `KUBE_PS1_KUBECONFIG_SYMLINK` | `false` | Treat `KUBECONFIG` and `~/.kube/config` files as symbolic links |

For terminals that do not support UTF-8, the symbol will be replaced with the
string `k8s`.

To disable a feature, set it to an empty string:

```
KUBE_PS1_SEPARATOR=''
```

## Colors

The default colors are set with the following environment variables:

| Variable | Default | Meaning |
| :------- | :-----: | ------- |
| `KUBE_PS1_PREFIX_COLOR` | `null` | Set default color of the prompt prefix |
| `KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_COLOR` | `blue` | Set default color of the Kubernetes symbol |
| `KUBE_PS1_CTX_COLOR` | `red` | Set default color of the context |
| `KUBE_PS1_SUFFIX_COLOR` | `null` | Set default color of the prompt suffix |
| `KUBE_PS1_NS_COLOR` | `cyan` | Set default color of the namespace |
| `KUBE_PS1_BG_COLOR` | `null` | Set default color of the prompt background |

Blue was used for the default symbol to match the Kubernetes color as closely
as possible. Red was chosen as the context name to stand out, and cyan for the
namespace.

Set the variable to an empty string if you do not want color for each
prompt section:

```
KUBE_PS1_CTX_COLOR=''
```

Names are usable for the following colors:

```
black, red, green, yellow, blue, magenta, cyan
```

256 colors are available by specifying the numerical value as the variable
argument.

## Customize display of cluster name and namespace

You can change how the cluster name and namespace are displayed using the
`KUBE_PS1_CLUSTER_FUNCTION` and `KUBE_PS1_NAMESPACE_FUNCTION` variables
respectively.

For the following examples let's assume the following:

cluster name: `sandbox.k8s.example.com`
namespace: `alpha`

If you're using domain style cluster names, your prompt will get quite long
very quickly. Let's say you only want to display the first portion of the
cluster name (`sandbox`), you could do that by adding the following:

```sh
function get_cluster_short() {
  echo "$1" | cut -d . -f1
}

KUBE_PS1_CLUSTER_FUNCTION=get_cluster_short
```

The same pattern can be followed to customize the display of the namespace.
Let's say you would prefer the namespace to be displayed in all uppercase
(`ALPHA`), here's one way you could do that:

```sh
function get_namespace_upper() {
    echo "$1" | tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]'
}

export KUBE_PS1_NAMESPACE_FUNCTION=get_namespace_upper
```

In both cases, the variable is set to the name of the function, and you must have defined the function in your shell configuration before kube_ps1 is called. The function must accept a single parameter and echo out the final value.

### Bug Reports and shell configuration

Due to the vast ways of customizing the shell, please try the prompt with a
minimal configuration before submitting a bug report.

This can be done as follows for each shell before loading kube-ps1:

Bash:
```bash
bash --norc
```

Zsh:
```bash
zsh -f
or
zsh --no-rcs
```
