kubemngr

Introduction

kubemngr is a cli tool to manage kubectl binaries for developers who work with different versions of Kubernetes clusters within their environments. This way the developer can keep in sync with the kubernetes cluster version. This tool was written in Golang using Cobra

99% of the case - developers will not have a problem using kubectl across different versions of k8s clusters with api requests for getting pods, ingress and services etc. However, there is the small chance that some requests will return with:

> kubectl describe ing <name>
Error from server (NotFound): the server could not find the requested resource

This tool was written based on this experience and for learning opportunities/experiences.
