I ran these but getting
kubectl ge-bash: _get_comp_words_by_ref: command not found

source <(kubectl completion bash) 
echo "source <(kubectl completion bash)" >> ~/.bashrc

How can we enable auto complete in server ?

Mohamed Ayman:
You can install it with apt-get install bash-completion or yum install bash-completion, etc.

$ source /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion

$ echo ‘source <(kubectl completion bash)’ >>~/.bashrc
$ kubectl completion bash >/etc/bash_completion.d/kubectl

I Malla:
Do we have to do all these in real exam? In Ann terminal or once only ?

Tej_Singh_Rana:
To make it persistent, put all configuration in a file. Like above.

@I Malla In the exam you have to use only below 4-commands to enable auto completion. Also use namespace in the begining (eg: k -n my-namespace get po), else you feel auto completion not works. And make sure no syntax error in the commands

source <(kubectl completion bash) # setup autocomplete in bash into the current shell, bash-completion package should be installed first.
echo “source <(kubectl completion bash)” >> ~/.bashrc # add autocomplete permanently to your bash shell.

alias k=kubectl
complete -F __start_kubectl k
