EKS AWS Credentials + GUI Based Programs #512

Open

Description

@bassrock

Platform or tool

AWS

Desired or expected behavior

When using EKS with 1password and kubectl following setup here #212 (comment) I would expect to be able to use GUI programs that interact with Kubectl.

The programs I am using or Lens or Aptakube

Current behavior

Kubectl works perfectly on the terminal following the setup in #212 (comment). However when Aptakube or Lens tries to interact with kubectl reading the configuration they error with something like the following after asking for my biopmetrics.

    Having a similar issue with JET Pilot as well - here's the user configuration in my kubeconfig:

    user:
      exec:
        apiVersion: client.authentication.k8s.io/v1beta1
        command: op
        args:
        - plugin
        - run
        - --
        - aws
        - --region
        - us-east-1
        - eks
        - get-token
        - --cluster-name
        - foo
        - --output
        - json
        env: null
        interactiveMode: Always
        provideClusterInfo: false

    My plugin is configured to only activate in ~/Development - does it need to be set globally?
