the KUBE_PS1* configuration env vars dominate tab completion

[jinyius]

(using zsh)

KUBE_PS1_BG_COLOR            KUBE_PS1_DIVIDER             KUBE_PS1_NS_ENABLE           KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_DEFAULT      kubectx
KUBE_PS1_BINARY              KUBE_PS1_KUBECONFIG_CACHE    KUBE_PS1_PREFIX              KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_ENABLE       kubens
KUBE_PS1_CLUSTER_FUNCTION    KUBE_PS1_LAST_TIME           KUBE_PS1_SEPARATOR           KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_USE_IMG      kubeoff
KUBE_PS1_CONTEXT             KUBE_PS1_NAMESPACE           KUBE_PS1_SHELL               kube_ps1                     kubeon
KUBE_PS1_CTX_COLOR           KUBE_PS1_NAMESPACE_FUNCTION  KUBE_PS1_SUFFIX              kubectl                      
KUBE_PS1_DISABLE_PATH        KUBE_PS1_NS_COLOR            KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_COLOR        kubectl-ssh

it would be nice not to export the KUBE_PS1 vars everywhere. some ideas:

1. prefix them with underscore
2. make the arguments to the kube_ps1 function
3. read from a config file

I cleaned up a good amount of these in the latest release, and more to come to cut this list down by at least half.

KUBE_PS1_BG_COLOR            KUBE_PS1_CONTEXT_ENABLE      KUBE_PS1_NAMESPACE_FUNCTION  KUBE_PS1_SEPARATOR           KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_OC_IMG
KUBE_PS1_BINARY              KUBE_PS1_CTX_COLOR           KUBE_PS1_NS_COLOR            KUBE_PS1_SUFFIX              KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_PADDING
KUBE_PS1_CLUSTER_FUNCTION    KUBE_PS1_DIVIDER             KUBE_PS1_NS_ENABLE           KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_COLOR        KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_USE_IMG
KUBE_PS1_CONTEXT             KUBE_PS1_NAMESPACE           KUBE_PS1_PREFIX              KUBE_PS1_SYMBOL_ENABLE

since it's a function, you can probably use command like args for some values. also, could use a config file, but this seems overweight.

thanks for looking at this.

(a super-cheap workaround would be to underscore prefix these settings)

[jonmosco]

Yes, that is also in the TODO and being worked on.

Going to close this out. Newest commit has cut back on the amt of env vars. Thank you for raising this issue!
