The kubectl completion script for Zsh can be generated with the command `kubectl completion zsh`. Sourcing the completion script in your shell enables kubectl autocompletion.
|
|
|
|
To do so in all your shell sessions, add the following to your `~/.zshrc` file:
|
|
|
|
```zsh
|
|
source <(kubectl completion zsh)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you have an alias for kubectl, you can extend shell completion to work with that alias:
|
|
|
|
```zsh
|
|
echo 'alias k=kubectl' >>~/.zshrc
|
|
echo 'compdef __start_kubectl k' >>~/.zshrc
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After reloading your shell, kubectl autocompletion should be working.
|
|
|
|
If you get an error like `complete:13: command not found: compdef`, then add the following to the beginning of your `~/.zshrc` file:
|
|
|
|
```zsh
|
|
autoload -Uz compinit
|
|
compinit
|
|
``` |
