Caleb Mayeux commented on JENKINS-52593   Re: Support EKS authentication, or specifying a kubeconfig directly Justin Patrin and junaid mukhtar jI'm in the same boat as y'all. I also haven't gotten it to work, but based on spending entirely too much time googling and looking through code changes, I think the general idea is to do something like this (this example is if you're using the public jenkins docker image): FROM jenkins/jenkins:2.176.4 USER root RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y python3-pip vim RUN pip3 install awscli USER jenkins   Then inside the container you exec in and run the command "aws configure" and put in the access and secret key from IAM. Then you create a file ~/.kube/config and fill it out as per https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/create-kubeconfig.html Test out that the command as per that config file works, i.e. run "aws eks get-token --cluster-name whateverYouNamedYourCluster" and make sure it spits out a json that has a token in it.   That's what I've cobbled together based on looking at this change https://github.com/fabric8io/kubernetes-client/pull/1224/commits/ef2c87472d87e144da09190e1896a9dcbf6208c4 and looking at the readme for the kubernetes client here: https://github.com/fabric8io/kubernetes-client    Like I said, this hasn't worked for me yet, but I feel like I'm close. If this helps you solve it, please post how to do it here for me and anyone else who runs into this issue. We should probably open an issue to update the plugin readme on this as well. If we can figure out how to get it to work we could even make that PR.   Also if suryatej yaramada or Carlos Sanchez wanted to weigh in on how to configure using this I'd be much obliged. Thanks!
