kubectl  # Kubernetes CLI
fzf      # Fuzzy finder (>=0.45.0)

git clone https://github.com/anhpt379/kgp.git
cd kgp
make install

export KGP_CACHE_REFRESH=30        # Cache refresh interval (seconds)
export KGP_CACHE_DIR="/tmp/kgp"    # Cache location
export KGP_DEBUG=1                 # Enable debug output

This is an intentional design decision. kgp focuses on speed and simplicity, and avoids managing mutable global state like the current namespace.

Instead, it's recommended to create a context with your desired namespace:

• Create a new context with your desired namespace:

  kubectl config set-context your-new-context --namespace="<namespace>" --cluster="<cluster>" --user="<user>"

• Then use CTRL-S in kgp to switch between contexts, including those with specific namespaces.
