Cloud Native PostgreSQL plugin for kubectl

Plugin for kubectl to manage a Cloud Native PostgreSQL cluster in Kubernetes. The plugin works also with oc in an OpenShift environment.

For details, please refer to Cloud Native PostgreSQL documentation.

Mac OS and Linux install

You can install the plugin in your system with:

curl -sSfL \
  https://github.com/EnterpriseDB/kubectl-cnp/raw/main/install.sh | \
  sudo sh -s -- -b /usr/local/bin

The plugin requires the Cloud Native PostgreSQL operator to be installed in the Kubernetes/Openshift cluster.

Windows install

To install the plugin on Windows go to the releases page and get the most recent release for your Windows architecture.

For example, if you are using an x86_64 build of Windows, you would download the file named kubectl-cnp_<version>_windows_x86_64.tar.gz.

The release includes a checksum file, named kubectl-cnp-<version>-checksums.txt, that can be used to validate the integrity of the Kubectl binary.

To validate the file you can compare the output of the following command against the relative line in the checksums file:

CertUtil -hashfile <tar-file> SHA256

Now you can extract the contents of the TAR archive using the following command:

tar xvzf <tar-file>

You can copy the kubectl-cnp.exe file in any directory pointed by your PATH environment variable, or prepend or append the Kubectl Cnp binary folder to your PATH environment variable.

The directory where kubectl.exe is is usually a good choice for copying the kubectl-cnp.exe file to.
