This tool will help you to do bulk port mappings using kubectl command which is installed and configured in your machine. This tool expects configured kubectl tool in your machine prior to using this tool.

• Checkout the code from github
• Then run make to compile the tool
• Copy the kpm binary in the source folder to a desired location and add to PATH variable

Note: More information will be added how to compile on different platforms later.

• Define different port mapping configurations as defined under First time use.
• Supports command auto completions.
• Start port mapping for several services on a namespace with a single command.
• When pods get restarts, resume the port forwarding by retrying for 10 times before giving up.
  • The first 5 retries are done with 1 second delay.
  • The rest of the 5 retries are done with 30 seconds delay.

When running for the first time kpm with no-arguments it will create a empty configuration file at ~/.kpm/config.json with following content

{
  "profiles": [
    {
      "name": "default",
      "config": {
        "namespace": "default",
        "entries": [
          {
            "serviceName": "svc/changeme",
            "servicePort": 80,
            "localPort": 8080
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
}

You can then change this file to define your own profiles you want to manage.
