Developing the kubernetes component

This component adds functionality to Cockpit to perform admin tasks on Kubernetes or Openshift. You'll see a "Cluster" tab listed in Cockpit.

Running a test instance

There's a test instance of Openshift (and also Kubernetes) that's you can run using the following command:

$ bots/vm-run openshift

To then access that it run the following in another terminal:

$ sudo yum install kubernetes-client
$ mkdir -p ~/.kube
$ cp bots/images/files/openshift.kubeconfig ~/.kube/config

You should now be able to use the kubectl command to access the cluster:

$ kubectl get pods
