I am running pulumi with the kubernetes provider manually set but I also manually updated my KUBECONFIG to a bad value. Now when I run it I get this warning "warning: configured Kubernetes cluster is unreachable: unable to load Kubernetes client configuration from kubeconfig file: invalid configuration: no configuration has been provided" Why does it care about my env variable and/or file if I am manually setting the provider and setting the kubeconfig. I have found a few times it tries to load the env var or file when I do not want it too so I am manually setting it too a bogus value to make sure it doesn't mess with my current local context.

Config set on the first-class provider should override ambient config. Precedence is 1. First-class provider 2. pulumi config values 3. Ambient KUBECONFIG If that’s not the case for you, please file an issue on the pulumi-kubernetes repo

Okay cool, i will do some testing and make sure this is working correctly.

for me, I had missed setting the provider on one resource which meant it was reverting to the

KUBECONFIG

var

Would be nice to disable the KUBECONFIG var since my shell does some automatic work to set this and allow me to quickly switch files. I only want pulumi to use config and fiest-class.

Okay cool, I just commented on that issue.
