config modifies kubeconfig files

### Synopsis
2015-03-11 17:22:08 +00:00
2015-04-08 14:32:32 +00:00
config modifies kubeconfig files using subcommands like "kubectl config set current-context my-context"

The loading order follows these rules:
1. If the --kubeconfig flag is set, then only that file is loaded. The flag may only be set once and no merging takes place.
2. If $KUBECONFIG environment variable is set, then it is used a list of paths (normal path delimitting rules for your system). These paths are merged together. When a value is modified, it is modified in the file that defines the stanza. When a value is created, it is created in the first file that exists. If no files in the chain exist, then it creates the last file in the list.
3. Otherwise, ${HOME}/.kube/config is used and no merging takes place.
