GitHub Action for interacting with kubectl (k8s)

Usage

To use kubectl put this step into your workflow:

Authorization with config file

- uses: actions-hub/kubectl@master
  env:
    KUBE_CONFIG: ${{ secrets.KUBE_CONFIG }}
  with:
    args: get pods

Authorization with credentials

- uses: actions-hub/kubectl@master
  env:
    KUBE_HOST: ${{ secrets.KUBE_HOST }}
    KUBE_CERTIFICATE: ${{ secrets.KUBE_CERTIFICATE }}
    KUBE_USERNAME: ${{ secrets.KUBE_USERNAME }}
    KUBE_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.KUBE_PASSWORD }}
  with:
    args: get pods

Authorization with a bearer token

- uses: actions-hub/kubectl@master
  env:
    KUBE_HOST: ${{ secrets.KUBE_HOST }}
    KUBE_CERTIFICATE: ${{ secrets.KUBE_CERTIFICATE }}
    KUBE_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.KUBE_TOKEN }}
  with:
    args: get pods

Environment variables

All these variables need to authorize to kubernetes cluster.
I recommend using secrets for this.

KUBECONFIG file

First options its to use kubeconfig file.

For this method KUBE_CONFIG required.
You can find it: cat $HOME/.kube/config | base64 .

Optionally you can switch the context (the cluster) if you have few in kubeconfig file. Passing specific context to KUBE_CONTEXT. To see the list of available contexts do: kubectl config get-contexts.

Variable	Type
KUBE_CONFIG	string (base64)
KUBE_CONTEXT	string

KUBECONFIG file

Another way to authenticate in the cluster is HTTP basic auth.

For this you need to pass:

• host (IP only, without protocol)
• username
• password
• cluster CA certificate

Variable	Type
KUBE_HOST	string
KUBE_USERNAME	string
KUBE_PASSWORD	string
KUBE_CERTIFICATE	string

Example

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - uses: actions-hub/kubectl@master
        env:
          KUBE_CONFIG: ${{ secrets.KUBE_CONFIG }}
        with:

      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - uses: actions-hub/kubectl@master
        env:
