stern VS krew

I love stern when interacting with Pod logs directly. https://github.com/wercker/stern

Logging: Traditional ELK requires a lot of server resources and is not suitable for a lightweight cluster like ours. The easiest way is to run multiple Pods to see the logs, and there is a stern tool that helps us to query the logs across multiple Pods.

Authenticating with Kyma is a (in my opinion) unnecessary challenge as it leverages the OIDC-login plugin for kubectl. You find a description of the setup here. This works fine when on a Mac but can give you some headaches on a Windows and on Linux machine especially when combined with restrictive setups in corporate environments. For Windows I can only recommend installing krew via chocolatey and then install the OIDC plugin via kubectl krew install oidc-login. At least for me that was the only way to get this working on Windows.

Krew is a way to manage plugins for Kubernetes. For more info, check out the following link: https://krew.sigs.k8s.io/

I plan on getting it added as a krew plugin, so watch this space.

Krew is a plugin manager maintained by the Kubernetes Special Interest Group (SIG) CLI community. Krew makes it easy to use kubectl plugins and helps you discover, install, and manage them on your machine. It is similar to tools like apt, dnf, or brew. Today, over 200 kubectl plugins are available on Krew - and that number is only increasing. Some projects are actively used and some get deprecated over time, but are still accessible via Krew.

kubectl plugins can be installed in numerous ways, the easiest way would be to install the official plugin manager called krew.
