Cloud Commands¶

Most people uses some flavour of Cloud hosted K8s clusters. This section is about the main K8s Cloud Providers.

Gcloud¶

With Google, everything goes throu the gcloud command.

Install¶

Apple Mac OSXLinuxWindows

brew install --cask google-cloud-sdk

Refer to the official doc.

curl -O https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/channels/rapid/downloads/google-cloud-cli-405.0.1-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
tar -xf google-cloud-cli-405.0.1-linux-x86.tar.gz
./google-cloud-sdk/install.sh

Setup¶

Once the gcloud command is installed, we have to init and configure it:

# Install kubectl if you don't already have it
# gcloud components install kubectl # Optional

gcloud init
gcloud components install gke-gcloud-auth-plugin --quiet
gcloud auth login

gcloud config set compute/region us-east1

gcloud config list

output

[compute]
region = us-central1
zone = us-central1-a
[core]
account = prune@not-your-business.zap
disable_usage_reporting = False
project = my-dev-project

List clusters:

gcloud container clusters  list

output

NAME                         LOCATION       MASTER_VERSION    MASTER_IP       MACHINE_TYPE   NODE_VERSION       NUM_NODES  STATUS
my-dev-us-central-cluster    us-central1-a  1.24.3-gke.2100   34.70.94.2      e2-standard-2  1.23.8-gke.1900 *  136        RUNNING

Add your GKE clusters to your kubectl context (you can always find this command in the Connect tab in the Gcloud Web Console):

gcloud container clusters get-credentials <cluster> --project <project>

Note

It is not necessary to add the --project <project> section if only one project is used and is the default.

Completion¶

Add those lines to enable completion:

Apple Mac OSX ZSHApple Mac OSX BASHLinux ZSHLinux BASH

~/.zshrc
source "/usr/local/Caskroom/google-cloud-sdk/latest/google-cloud-sdk/path.zsh.inc"
source "/usr/local/Caskroom/google-cloud-sdk/latest/google-cloud-sdk/completion.zsh.inc"

~/.bashrc
source "/usr/local/Caskroom/google-cloud-sdk/latest/google-cloud-sdk/path.bash.inc"
source "/usr/local/Caskroom/google-cloud-sdk/latest/google-cloud-sdk/completion.bash.inc"

~/.zshrc
# path may vary depending on where you installed gcloud command
$HOME/kubernetes/google-cloud-sdk/path.zsh.inc
$HOME/kubernetes/google-cloud-sdk/completion.zsh.inc

~/.bashrc
# path may vary depending on where you installed gcloud command
$HOME/kubernetes/google-cloud-sdk/path.bash.inc
$HOME/kubernetes/google-cloud-sdk/completion.bash.inc

AWS CLI¶

Install¶

curl "https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.pkg" -o "AWSCLIV2.pkg"
sudo installer -pkg AWSCLIV2.pkg -target /

Setup¶

Setup SSO ans default AWS profile. This is not mandatory but is a great helper if you're using SSO:

unset AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
aws configure sso
aws sso login --profile profile_xxxxxx
export AWS_PROFILE=profile_xxxxxx

Add your EKS clusters to your kubectl context:

aws eks update-kubeconfig \ 
    --region us-east-1    \
    --name <cluster_name> \
    --alias <friendly_name>

Completions¶

Add those lines to your shell startup script:

ZSHBASH

~/.zshrc
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 # update to your preference
export AWS_PAGER="" # prevent aws cli to auto-page = display inline
export BROWSER=echo # Do not open a browser, let you choose which browser to open
# AWS CLI completions
complete -C '/usr/local/bin/aws_completer' aws

~/.bashrc
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 # update to your preference
export AWS_PAGER="" # prevent aws cli to auto-page = display inline
export BROWSER=echo # Do not open a browser, let you choose which browser to open
# AWS CLI completions
complete -C '/usr/local/bin/aws_completer' aws
