to configure

View version

kubectl version

inspect

Check that kubectl is configured correctly by getting the cluster state

kubectl cluster-info

If kubels is correctly configured, then you can see that kubels is returned to the cluster.

If you see information like the following being returned, kubectl is not configured correctly to properly access your kubernetes cluster.

The connection to the server <server-name:port> was refused - did you specify the right host or port?

For example, if you plan to run a kubernetes cluster on a laptop (local), you need to first install tools such as minikube, and then rerun the above command.

If kubectl cluster info can return a URL response, but you cannot access your cluster, you can use the following command to check whether the configuration is correct:

kubectl cluster-info dump

Minikube

Microk8s

Install using snap

sudo snap install microk8s --classic

Start and view the status of the microk8s:

Sudo microk8s. Start // start microk8s

Microk8s status -- wait ready // query the current status

Since it is a single node k8s, kubectl can be directly integrated into alias
modify~/.bash_aliasesAdd the following
alias kubectl='microk8s kubectl'
