kube-prompt does not work with minikube

[frankgerhardt]

I don't have kubectl installed but use alias kubectl='minikube kubectl --' instead as described in https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/handbook/kubectl/.

Then I get this error:

$ kube-prompt 
kube-prompt v1.0.10 (rev-43bcffa)
Please use `exit` or `Ctrl-D` to exit this program.
>>> help
/bin/sh: 1: kubectl: not found
Got error: exit status 127
>>>

@frankgerhardt not sure if this still matters for you, but if anyone else ends up here you can resolve this by making a bash script that just passes all args through to minikube.

1. Create file kubectl

   
   #!/bin/bash

minikube kubectl -- "$@"

2. `chmod +x ./kubectl`
3. `sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl`

Now any programs that need kubectl will actually work (including running as root).
