DESCRIPTION
The `doctl-kubernetes-options` command outlines the common options available when interacting with Kubernetes clusters managed through DigitalOcean's `doctl` CLI. These options govern how `doctl` connects to, authenticates with, and manipulates your Kubernetes clusters. This includes specifying context, namespaces, and output formatting for various Kubernetes-related commands. Understanding these options allows you to customize your interactions and streamline cluster management using `doctl` effectively. It is important to know how to use kubectl and some base kubernetes knowledge before administering the resources via doctl.
CAVEATS
Some Kubernetes commands may have their own specific options in addition to these global options.
AUTHENTICATION
doctl
primarily authenticates with DigitalOcean's Kubernetes service via an API token. This token can be provided through the `--token` option or the `DIGITALOCEAN_ACCESS_TOKEN` environment variable. It's crucial to keep your API token secure.
CONTEXT MANAGEMENT
The `--context` option is essential for managing multiple Kubernetes clusters. It specifies which kubeconfig context `doctl` should use to interact with your cluster. Ensure your kubeconfig file is correctly configured with the necessary cluster details and credentials.
