kubeconfig Environment Variable Size Limit on Windows #63

Closed bdschaap closed 5 years ago

bdschaap commented 5 years ago

My kubeconfig file is ~5K bytes and larger when base64 encoded. Windows has a 1K limit on the size of an environment variable(?). I'd like to propose supporting kubeconfig as a file location (via file path, url, etc). I'm able to simply paste the base64 encoded contents in the Bake yaml as a workaround on Windows.

For local testing, we need a better way for building the BAKE_VARIABLE? data. When run through the ADO deployment task its fine since it builds in memory, saves to an env file that is passed to docker.

We probably need a local method of loading bake variables from a local file as an override for environment variables.

Makes sense on being just an issue with local testing. I like the idea of loading variables from a file as an alternative to env vars.

Closing this out since bake_variables are now built from a local .env file instead of storing as an env variable.
