Local Dev Dash 2.0 and kubectl Support

Local Dev Dash 2.0

🎉 We're happy to share that the Local Dev Dash has received a big upgrade!

The main improvement is in the API explorer. It now features multiple tabs so you can work on multiple endpoints more easily, and lets you store and re-use custom requests. You can now also share these with your team members to create your own internal repository of often-used requests.

We hope these improvements will make your local development workflow smoother and faster than ever before!

kubectl Support

Kubernetes provides the command line tool kubectl for communicating with a Kubernetes cluster's control plane, using the Kubernetes API.

If your Encore application has environments using Kubernetes, application Admins can now configure your local kubectl to access your cluster automatically, without needing to fuss with IP allow lists, port forwarding, or firewall rules.

From your application directory, run encore kubernetes configure -env=[ENV_NAME]. Then you can immediately run kubectl get deployments or your next favourite kubectl command.

👉 Remember to update your CLI: encore version update
