Background

We want CF on K8s to be easy to install and experiment with locally, maybe using kind. In these scenarios we favour ease of use and simplicity over security and robustness.

Question

What's the simplest way to configure cluster authentication on a local experimentation cluster? Dex looks like a good candidate, and in particular:

• the staticPasswords configuration parameter, not officially documented by mentioned e.g. here
• the GitHub connector

Closing this as the new $KUBECONFIG strategy makes it very easy to just use kind export kubeconfig and be up and running!
