Overview

kubepfm is a simple wrapper to kubectl port-forward command. It can start multiple kubectl port-forward processes based on the number of input target pods. At the moment, if you have multiple pods per deployment, it will choose the first one listed from the kubectl get pod command. Terminating the tool (Ctrl-C) will also terminate all running kubectl processes.

Installation

$ go get -u -v github.com/flowerinthenight/kubepfm

Usage

$ kubepfm --target pod-name-or-pattern:local-port:pod-port --target ...

Examples

# example pods:
$ kubectl get pod

# port-forward two pods using port 1222 to my local 8080 and 8081 ports:
$ kubepfm --target mypod:8080:1222 --target otherpod:8081:1222

# localhost:8080 -> mypod, localhost:8081 -> otherpod
