Action fails because incompatible python version for awscli

[MarkPare]

Currently I'm seeing this action fail with an error (see logs below).

I believe problem comes from this recent change in awscli package that removes support for python 2.7.

Wondering if/when issue will be corrected here. This is blocking my deployments so I need a fix asap.

For anyone running into this issue and needing a fix asap, I had some issues when testing other kubectl github actions, but this works for AWS EKS:

curl -O https://s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/amazon-eks/1.24.13/2023-05-11/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
chmod +x ./kubectl
kubectl version --short --client
echo ${{ secrets.KUBE_CONFIG_DATA }} | base64 --decode > kube_config.yaml
kubectl apply -f my-deployment.yaml --kubeconfig kube_config.yaml

i've forked the repo and removed the aws dependency as we were not using it.

Hi @nacholemmo @ivilla @allancarvalho @VictorMessina @VictorMessina - Please try this and see if that works - https://github.com/marketplace/actions/kubernetes-action-with-python-2-x-fixes Tested and reported working in EKS.

HI, @davi020 , I have tried to user your version, it passed the previous error, but now I get error: exec plugin: invalid apiVersion "client.authentication.k8s.io/v1alpha1"

which, after googling a bit seems to be connected with kubectl version issues, any idea?

[lomby]

@nenadz-qsense I had the same issue at first. You'll need to update that line/value in your .kube/config file to this

client.authentication.k8s.io/v1beta1

Then base64 encode it again and update your secret. Worked perfectly for me after that 👍 Probably worth updating any versions of aws cli/kubectl locally/elsewhere too for consistency (if they are supported by your Kubernetes version/s)

Hi @nenadz-qsense - Hope you fixed your issue with the solution @lomby provided.

[nenadz-qsense]

It works.

Thanks both @lomby @davi020
