# kubectx - show active kubectl context This plugins adds `kubectx_prompt_info()` function. It shows name of the active kubectl context (`kubectl config current-context`). You can use it to customize prompt and know if You are on prod cluster ;) To use this plugin, add `kubectx` to the plugins array in your zshrc file: ```zsh plugins=(... kubectx) ``` ### Usage Add to **.zshrc**: ```zsh # right prompt RPS1='$(kubectx_prompt_info)' # left prompt PROMPT="$PROMPT"'$(kubectx_prompt_info)' ``` ### Custom context names You can rename the default context name for better readability or additional formatting. These values accept [prompt expansion sequences](http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Prompt-Expansion.html) such as `%F{color}`, `%f`, `%K{color}`, `%k`, `%B`, `%b`, `%U`, `%u`, `%S`, `%s`, `%{...%}`. **Example**: add this to your .zshrc file: ```zsh kubectx_mapping[minikube]="mini" kubectx_mapping[context_name_from_kubeconfig]="$emoji[wolf_face]" kubectx_mapping[production_cluster]="%{$fg[yellow]%}prod!%{$reset_color%}" # contexts with spaces kubectx_mapping[context\ with\ spaces]="%F{red}spaces%f" # don't use quotes as it will break the prompt kubectx_mapping["context with spaces"]="%F{red}spaces%f" # ti ``` You can also define the whole mapping array at once: ```zsh typeset -A kubectx_mapping kubectx_mapping=( minikube "mini" context_name_from_kubeconfig "$emoji[wolf_face]" production_cluster "%{$fg[yellow]%}prod!%{$reset_color%}" "context with spaces" "%F{red}spaces%f" ) ``` ![staging](stage.png) ![production](prod.png)
