This repository includes Homebrew Casks to install multiple Kubectl versions (since 1.8) at the same time, and a chk helper to specify which one to use. chk also installs the specified version automatically if needed.

Tap this repository:

brew tap Vlatombe/kubectls

Install the chk helper:

brew install chk

Add the following to the ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc file:

# Source chk
if [[ -f /usr/local/share/chk/chk.sh ]]; then
    source "/usr/local/share/chk/chk.sh"
fi

If you are using fish add the following into ~/.config/fish/config.fish:

# Source chk
if test -f /usr/local/share/chk/chk.fish
    source /usr/local/share/chk/chk.fish
end

Then select the wanted Kubectl version to use with chk.

chk 1.11.3

You can also just install a specific Kubectl version (but you'll need to use chk or adjust PATH yourself to use it):

brew install --cask kubernetes-cli-1.11.3

This project is a port of chtf for kubectl.
