oci-cluster-token

A token generator for accessing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Kubernetes Engine (OKE) clusters in ~/.kube/config. This tool replaces the oci command to accelerate kubectl and k9s commands by generating tokens more efficiently.

Overview

oci-cluster-token is a lightweight utility designed to streamline access to Oracle Cloud's Kubernetes OKE clusters. Instead of relying on the oci command-line tool to fetch tokens, this tool generates them directly, improving the speed of Kubernetes CLI operations like kubectl and k9s.

Features

Generates tokens for OKE cluster access.
Replaces the oci command for faster ~/.kube/config integration.
Speeds up kubectl and k9s command execution.

Installation

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/mattn/oci-cluster-token.git

Build the tool:
```
cd oci-cluster-token
go build
```
Move the binary to your PATH:
```
mv oci-cluster-token /usr/local/bin/
```

Usage

Configure your ~/.kube/config to use oci-cluster-token instead of the oci command for token generation.

Update the exec section in your ~/.kube/config to reference oci-cluster-token:

- command: oci-cluster-token
  apiVersion: client.authentication.k8s.io/v1beta1
  args:
    - --cluster-id
    - <your-cluster-id>

Run kubectl or k9s as usual, and the tool will handle token generation.

Installation

Access to an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure account and an OKE cluster.
Properly configured ~/.oci/config with your OCI credentials.

go install github.com/mattn/oci-cluster-token@latest
