One Kubernetes cluster for Coder and one for the workspaces: how do I specify the ~/.kube/config for
My first battlefield experience with Coder does not went as I expected, but mainly my fault.
In all what I need to figure out, we are going to try to have 2 separate Kubernetes cluster:
- one will be hosting Coder itself
- one for all the workspaces
The template has a parameter to use a kubeconfig but it expect to be in ~/.kube/config
I understand it is more targeted towards a single instance running Coder but if I really need to run Coder in a Kubernetes cluster, how do I upload/specify the kubeconfig for workspaces?

You can mount the kube config to coder pods at any arbitrary location and update your template to check for that location
By default it looks at ~/.kube/config
hey Thierry!
there are different ways to achieve this
you can either change the
config_path variable in the provider's initialization, you can also configure the provider yourself by specifying host and credentials without the need of a kubeconfigI would recommend setting some variables if you go that way, so you can modify them without having to modify the template
this week is a bit overloaded but I have to check quickly for another coming workshop
sounds good!
for now, I did not find a easy way and we decided to have dedicated nodepool for workspace with a nodeSelector on a label
