Allow customizing path to KUBECTX and KUBENS_DIR
Author: josegonzalezCreated Aug 24, 2023Updated Mar 9, 2026
I have dotfiles that are shared across machines. On some machines, I'd like to expose a different path for the KUBECTX file (currently defined as KUBECTX="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.kube}/kubectx"). I can do this for KUBECONFIG but there isn't anything similar for kubectx.
This problem also exists for KUBENS_DIR
Would you be open to a PR to make that customizable by respecting the KUBECTX env var (if set) and KUBENS_DIR?
