K9s Release v0.29.0 (#2326)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
* Feat: Move shell pod cluster config to general config

> BREAKING CHANGE! K9s configuration breaking change! Shellpod specification will
no longer reside with a cluster configuration. It is now part of the
global K9s configuration object.

Shellpod configuration should be part of k9s config. Clusters admins
will most likely use the same image and config to run shells on their
nodes. Each cluster in turn will have the option to either
enable/disable shelling into nodes. This not only DRYs up the k9s config
but also allows user to consolidate their shell pod configuration in one
central place.

* Fix #2290 - Add freebsd assets

* Maintenance cleaning up

* Fix #2166 - Add taint tracking column to node view

* Fix #2009: Update screendump file names to contain resource info

* Maintenance: Cleanup errror messages

* Fix #1513: Change log default to tail vs last 5min

* Fix #2166: Add taint indicator on node view

* Fix #2165: Track init co restarts

* Fix #2308: Fix rbac auth checks

* Fix #2036: Fix npe on filtering CRDs

* Fix #2219: Turn on TTY option on shellpod

* Fix #2167: Update color escape sequence on copy

* Fix #2297: Enable multi select on nodes

* Cleanup headers

* Fix #2162: Allow edit when describing/viewing

* Feat: Add helm release history support

* Fix #2039: Command Arrow up/down + enter support

* Small refactor

* Add img vulenerability scans support

* Change skin loading and support

- Move skin specification to k9s cluster config section
- Load skins for skins dir

* Release v0.29.0 docs

## K9s Configuration

K9s keeps its configurations inside of a `k9s` directory and the location depends on your operating system. K9s leverages [XDG](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html) to load its various configurations files. For information on the default locations for your OS please see [this link](https://github.com/adrg/xdg/blob/master/README.md). If you are still confused a quick `k9s info` will reveal where k9s is loading its configurations from. Alternatively, you can set `K9SCONFIG` to tell K9s the directory location to pull its configurations from.

# Release v0.29.0

## Notes

Thank you to all that contributed with flushing out issues and enhancements for K9s!

and see if we're happier with some of the fixes!
If you've filed an issue please help me verify and close.

Your support, kindness and awesome suggestions to make K9s better are, as ever, very much noted and appreciated!
Also big thanks to all that have allocated their own time to help others on both slack and on this repo!!

## 🎉 Feature Release 🎈👯

### Breaking Bad!

WARNING! There are breaking change on this drop!

1. NodeShell configuration has moved up in the k9s config file from the context section to the top level config.
More than likely, one uses the same nodeShell image with all the fixins to introspect nodes no matter the cluster. This update DRY's up k9s config and still allows one to opt in/out of nodeShell via the context specific feature gate.
Please see README for the details.

> NOTE: If you haven't customize the shellPod images on your contexts, the app will move the nodeShell config section to
> it's new location and update your clusters information accordingly.
> If not, you will need to edit the nodeShell section and manage it from a single location!
1. Log view used to default to the last 5mins aka `sinceSeconds: 300`.
Changed the default to tail logs instead aka `sinceSeconds: -1`

1. Skins loading changed! In this release, we do away with the context specific skin files. You can now directly specify the skin to use for a given cluster directly in the k9s config file under the cluster configuration. K9s now expects a skins directory in the k9s config home with your skin files. You can use your custom skins and copy them to the `skins` directory or use the contributes skins found on this repo root.
Specify the name of the skin in the config file and now your cluster will load the specified skin.

For example: create a `skins` dir your k9s config home and add one_dark.yml skin file from this repo. Then edit your k9s config file as follows:

```yaml
k9s:
...
clusters:
fred:
# Override the default skin and use this skin for this cluster.
skin: one_dark # -> Look for a skin file in ~/.config/k9s/skins/one_dark.yml
namespace:
...
view:
active: pod
featureGates:
nodeShell: false
portForwardAddress: localhost
```

The `fred` cluster will now load with the specified skin name. Rinse and repeat for other clusters of your liking. In the case where neither the skin dir or skin file are present, k9s will still honor the global skin aka `skin.yml` in your k9s config home directory to skin all your clusters.

---

### Walk Of SHelm...

Added a `Releases` view to Helm!

This provides the ability for Helm users to manage their releases directly from k9s.
You can now press `enter` on a selected Helm install and view all associated releases.
While in the releases view, you can also rollback an install to a previous revision.

---

### Spock! Are You Out Of Your VulScan Mind?

Tired of having malignent folks shoot holes in your prod clusters or failing compliance testing?

Added ability to run image vulnerability scans directly from k9s. You can now monitor your security stance in dev/staging/... clusters
prior to proclaiming `It's Open Season...` in prod!

As it stands Pod, Deployment, StatefulSet, DaemonSet, CronJob, Job views will feature a new column for Vulnerability Scan aka `VS`.

> NOTE! This feature is gated so you'll need to manually opt in/out by modifying your k9s config file like so:
```yaml
k9s:
liveViewAutoRefresh: false
enableImageScan: true # <- Yes Please!!
headless: false
...
```

Once enabled, a new column `VS` (aka Vulnerability Score) should be present on the aforementioned views where you will see your vulnerability scores (*Still work in progress!!*).
The `VS` column displays a bit vector aka Sev-1|Sev-2|Sev-3|Sev-4|Sev-5|Sev-Unknown. When the bit is high it indicate the presence of the severity in the scans. Higher order bits = Higher severity
For instance, the following vector `110001` indicates the presence of both critical (Sev-1) and high (Sev-2) and an unclassified severity (aka Sev-Unknown) issues in the scan. Sev-U indicates no classification currently exist in our vulnerability database.

The image scans are run async, rendering the views eventually consistent, hence you may have to give the scores a few cycles for the dust to settle...
Once the caches are primed, subsequent loads should be faster 🤞

You can sort the views by vulnerability score using `ShiftV`.
Additionally, you can view the full scans report by pressing `v` on a selected resource.

I've synced my entire Thanksgiving holiday break on this ding dang deal, so hopefully it works for most of you??
Also if you dig this new feature, please make some noise! 😍

💘 This is an experimental feature and likely will require additional TLC 💘

> NOTE! The lib we use to scan for vulnerabilities only supports macOS and Linux!!
> NOTE: I have yet to test this feature on larger clusters, so likely this may break??
> Please take these reports with a grain of salt as likely your mileage will vary and help us
> validate the accuracy of the report ie if we cry `Wolf`, is it actually there?
The paint is still fresh on this deal!!

### Do You Tube?

My plan is to begin (again!) putting out short k9s episodes with how-tos, tips, tricks and features previews.

Please dial [K9s Channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC897uwPygni4QIjkPCpgjmw) for up coming content...

The first drop should be up by the time you read this!
