The Javascript clients for Kubernetes is implemented in
[typescript](https://typescriptlang.org), but can be called from either
Javascript or Typescript. The client is implemented for server-side use with Node.

# Installation

```console
npm install @kubernetes/client-node
```

# Example code

## List all pods

```javascript
const k8s = require('@kubernetes/client-node');

const kc = new k8s.KubeConfig();
kc.loadFromDefault();

const k8sApi = kc.makeApiClient(k8s.CoreV1Api);

k8sApi.listNamespacedPod({ namespace: 'default' }).then((res) => {
    console.log(res);
});
```

## Create a new namespace

```javascript
const k8s = require('@kubernetes/client-node');

const kc = new k8s.KubeConfig();
kc.loadFromDefault();

const k8sApi = kc.makeApiClient(k8s.CoreV1Api);

var namespace = {
    metadata: {
        name: 'test',
    },
};

k8sApi.createNamespace({ body: namespace }).then(
    (response) => {
        console.log('Created namespace');
        console.log(response);
        k8sApi.readNamespace(namespace.metadata.name).then((response) => {
            console.log(response);
            k8sApi.deleteNamespace(namespace.metadata.name, {} /* delete options */);
        });
    },
    (err) => {
        console.log('Error!: ' + err);
    },
);
```

## Create a cluster configuration programatically

```javascript
const k8s = require('@kubernetes/client-node');

const cluster = {
    name: 'my-server',
    server: 'http://server.com',
};

const user = {
    name: 'my-user',
    password: 'some-password',
};

const context = {
    name: 'my-context',
    user: user.name,
    cluster: cluster.name,
};

const kc = new k8s.KubeConfig();
kc.loadFromOptions({
    clusters: [cluster],
    users: [user],
    contexts: [context],
    currentContext: context.name,
});
const k8sApi = kc.makeApiClient(k8s.CoreV1Api);
...
```

# Additional Examples and Documentation

There are several more JS and TS examples in the [examples](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/javascript/tree/main/examples) directory.

Documentation for the library is split into two resources:

1. The [Kubernetes API Reference](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/) is the source-of-truth for all Kubernetes client libraries, including this one. We suggest starting here!
2. The Typedoc autogenerated docs can be viewed [online](https://kubernetes-client.github.io/javascript) and can also be built locally (see below)

# Compatibility

Prior to the `0.13.0` release, release versions did not track Kubernetes versions. Starting with the `0.13.0`
release, we will increment the minor version whenever we update the minor Kubernetes API version
(e.g. `1.19.x`) that this library is generated from.

We switched from `request` to `fetch` as the HTTP(S) backend for the `1.0.0` release.

Generally speaking newer clients will work with older Kubernetes, but compatability isn't 100% guaranteed.

| client version | older versions | 1.28 | 1.29 | 1.30 | 1.31 | 1.32 |
| -------------- | -------------- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- | ---- |
| 0.19.x         | -              | ✓    | x    | x    | x    | x    |
| 0.20.x         | -              | +    | ✓    | x    | x    | x    |
| 0.21.x         | -              | +    | +    | ✓    | x    | x    |
| 0.22.x         | -              | +    | +    | +    | ✓    | x    |
| 1.0.x          | -              | +    | +    | +    | +    | ✓    |
| 1.1.x          | -              | +    | +    | +    | +    | ✓    |

Key:

- `✓` Exactly the same features / API objects in both javascript-client and the Kubernetes
  version.
- `+` javascript-client has features or api objects that may not be present in the
  Kubernetes cluster, but everything they have in common will work.
- `-` The Kubernetes cluster has features the javascript-client library can't use
  (additional API objects, etc).
- `x` The Kubernetes cluster has no guarantees to support the API client of
  this version, as it only promises _n_-2 version support. It is not tested,
  and operations using API versions that have been deprecated and removed in
  later server versions won't function correctly.

# Known Issues

- Multiple kubeconfigs are not completely supported.
  Credentials are cached based on the kubeconfig username and these can collide across configs.
  Here is the related [issue](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/javascript/issues/592).
