Customizing kn

    • If the XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable is set, the default configuration location that kn looks for is $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/kn.
    • If the XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable is not set, kn looks for the configuration in the home directory of the user at $HOME/.config/kn/config.yaml.

    Where

    • path-lookup specifies whether kn should look for plugins in the PATH environment variable. This is a boolean configuration option. The default value is false.
    • directory specifies the directory where kn will look for plugins. The default path depends on the operating system, as described earlier. This can be any directory that is visible to the user.
    • sink-mappings defines the Kubernetes Addressable resource that is used when you use the --sink flag with a kn CLI command.
      • group: The API group of the Kubernetes resource.
      • version: The version of the Kubernetes resource.
      • resource: The plural name of the Kubernetes resource type. For example, services or brokers.
