This project is a terminal-based dashboard for managing Kubernetes clusters. It provides a character-based interface that enables real-time monitoring and interactive control of containerized workloads, allowing users to perform administrative tasks such as scaling deployments, viewing logs, and managing port forwarding directly from the command line.
The interface is designed for high-speed navigation, utilizing a keyboard-driven command system that maps input sequences to specific operational actions. It maintains an accurate view of the cluster state through asynchronous event polling, ensuring that the displayed data remains responsive. The environment is highly extensible, supporting a plugin architecture that allows for the integration of custom binaries and ad-hoc commands into the existing menu system.
Beyond core management, the tool includes capabilities for security administration, including the management and auditing of role-based access control permissions. Users can customize their workspace through declarative configuration files, which allow for the definition of custom table columns, data parsing rules, and visual themes. The platform also incorporates diagnostic utilities for analyzing network service performance and throughput.
