## Kubernetes Context in iTerm2's Status Bar
This guide demonstrates displaying the current Kubernetes context in iTerm2's
Status Bar.
Note: This requires iTerm2 3.3+.
### Install iTerm2 Shell Integration
`iTerm2` > `Install Shell Integration`
This will add a line to your `.bash_profile`:
```bash
test -e "${HOME}/.iterm2_shell_integration.bash" && source "${HOME}/.iterm2_shell_integration.bash"
```
### Add the `kubecontext` user variable
Before `.iterm2_shell_integration.bash` is loaded, add this function:
```bash
function iterm2_print_user_vars() {
iterm2_set_user_var kubecontext $(kubectl config current-context)
}
```
The above command can be slow if the internet connection is slow. An alternative is to use this function:
```bash
function iterm2_print_user_vars() {
iterm2_set_user_var kubecontext $(awk '/^current-context:/{print $2;exit;}' <~/.kube/config)
}
```
If you want to display the current namespace in your Status Bar as well, add this function instead:
```bash
function iterm2_print_user_vars() {
iterm2_set_user_var kubecontext $(kubectl config current-context):$(kubectl config view --minify --output 'jsonpath={..namespace}')
}
```
### Add `kubecontext` Status Bar component
1. `iTerm2` > `Preferences` > `Profiles` > `Session` > `Configure Status Bar`
2. Drag a new `Interpolated String` component to `Active Components`.
3. Select the new component and click `Configure Component`.
4. Set `String Value` to `\(user.kubecontext)`
