bind login

Synopsis

Login to a kube-bind server using OAuth2 authentication flow.

The command will open your browser to complete the OAuth2 flow and store the resulting JWT token in ~/.kube-bind/config for use by subsequent commands.

The SERVER_URL should point to the root of your kube-bind server, e.g. https://my-server.example.com

bind login [SERVER_URL] [flags]

Examples

    # Login to a kube-bind server
    kubectl bind login https://my-kube-bind-server.example.com

    # Login with a custom callback port
    kubectl bind login https://my-kube-bind-server.example.com --callback-port 8081

    # Login and show authentication status
    kubectl bind login https://my-kube-bind-server.example.com --show-token

      --config-file string                   Path to the kube-bind configuration file
      --context string                       The name of the kubeconfig context to use
      --disable-compression                  If true, opt-out of response compression for all requests to the server
  -h, --help                                 help for login
      --insecure-skip-tls-verify             Skip TLS certificate verification (not recommended)
      --kubeconfig string                    path to the kubeconfig file
      --log-flush-frequency duration         Maximum number of seconds between log flushes (default 5s)
      --log-text-info-buffer-size quantity   [Alpha] In text format with split output streams, the info messages can be buffered for a while to increase performance. The default value of zero bytes disables buffering. The size can be specified as number of bytes (512), multiples of 1000 (1K), multiples of 1024 (2Ki), or powers of those (3M, 4G, 5Mi, 6Gi). Enable the LoggingAlphaOptions feature gate to use this.
      --log-text-split-stream                [Alpha] In text format, write error messages to stderr and info messages to stdout. The default is to write a single stream to stdout. Enable the LoggingAlphaOptions feature gate to use this.
      --logging-format string                Sets the log format. Permitted formats: "text". (default "text")
  -n, --namespace string                     If present, the namespace scope for this CLI request
      --password string                      Password for basic authentication to the API server
      --proxy-url string                     If provided, this URL will be used to connect via proxy
      --server string                        The kube-bind server name to use (overrides kube-bind config current server)
      --show-token                           Display the stored token after successful authentication
      --skip-browser                         Skip opening the browser automatically
      --timeout duration                     Timeout for the authentication flow (default 5m0s)
      --tls-server-name string               If provided, this name will be used to validate server certificate. If this is not provided, hostname used to contact the server is used.
      --token string                         Bearer token for authentication to the API server
      --user string                          The name of the kubeconfig user to use
      --username string                      Username for basic authentication to the API server
  -v, --v Level                              number for the log level verbosity
      --vmodule pattern=N,...                comma-separated list of pattern=N settings for file-filtered logging (only works for text log format)

Options inherited from parent commands

      --add_dir_header                   If true, adds the file directory to the header of the log messages
      --alsologtostderr                  log to standard error as well as files (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
      --log_backtrace_at traceLocation   when logging hits line file:N, emit a stack trace (default :0)
      --log_dir string                   If non-empty, write log files in this directory (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
      --log_file string                  If non-empty, use this log file (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
      --log_file_max_size uint           Defines the maximum size a log file can grow to (no effect when -logtostderr=true). Unit is megabytes. If the value is 0, the maximum file size is unlimited. (default 1800)
      --logtostderr                      log to standard error instead of files (default true)
      --one_output                       If true, only write logs to their native severity level (vs also writing to each lower severity level; no effect when -logtostderr=true)
      --skip_headers                     If true, avoid header prefixes in the log messages
      --skip_log_headers                 If true, avoid headers when opening log files (no effect when -logtostderr=true)
      --stderrthreshold severity         logs at or above this threshold go to stderr when writing to files and stderr (no effect when -logtostderr=true or -alsologtostderr=true) (default 2)
