Trung Tran:
you should use alias k=‘kubectl’ for this

Shwetha Shenoy V:
autocomplete is not enabled by default. You can enable it by yourself at the start of the exam.

Igor Roháľ:
@Trung Tran when using the alias, autocompletion doesn’t work… or does it? how to go about it? thanks

#5

Igor Roháľ:
i mean… how can one make the auto-completion work with the alias? it doesn’t work by default.

unnivkn:
autocomplete works with alias.
alias k=‘kubectl’
eg:
k -n my-ns get dep+TABKEY

Sunil Krishna Ghanta:
@Shwetha Shenoy V from your message above I see that auto-complete is not enabled by default but from the message @unnivkn posted above I am seeing auto-complete is pre-configured. I am a little confused.

unnivkn:
