Hey im using EKS to create a cluster, and then creating a namespace and some secrets the general flow look something like this

const cluster = new aws.eks.Cluster("cluster", {...})
     const namespace = new k8s.core.v1.Namespace("dev-namespace", {...})
    const secret = new k8s.core.v1.Secret("dev-secret", {...})

this works when im devleoping locally but when my CI pipeline tries to run

pulumi up

i get error like this

error: configured Kubernetes cluster is unreachable: unable to load Kubernetes client configuration from kubeconfig file: invalid configuration: no configuration has been provided, try setting KUBERNETES_MASTER environment variable

can someone point me to some docs on what this KUBERNETES_MASTER environment variable is? or how to pass the cluster credentials from

new eks.Cluster()

to the

new k8s.Namespace()

call?

You will want to set the provider namespace/secret etc. to the provider from EKS. See https://github.com/pulumi/examples/blob/master/aws-ts-eks-hello-world/index.ts#L27 Sounds like the default kubernetes provider is trying to use ambient credentials (which probably don't exist) and failing.

Vivek beat me to it!

you're supposed to be resting @billowy-army-68599 😛

ive seen that sample code but when i look at https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/aws/eks/cluster/ provider is not a output of new aws.eks.Cluster

@dry-teacher-74595 there’s some chat here about this: https://pulumi-community.slack.com/archives/CRFURDVQB/p1622745366158900 https://pulumi-community.slack.com/archives/CRFURDVQB/p1627000195409600
