It allows to manage Kubernetes cluster by providing a wide set of commands that allows to communicate with the Kubernetes API in a friendly way.\n\n[Overview of Kubectl](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubectl)\nTrademarks: This software listing is packaged by Bitnami. The respective trademarks mentioned in the offering are owned by the respective companies, and use of them does not imply any affiliation or endorsement.\n\n## TL;DR\n\n```console\ndocker run --name kubectl REGISTRY_NAME/bitnami/kubectl:latest\n```\n\n> Note: You need to substitute the `REGISTRY_NAME` placeholder with a reference to your container registry.\n\n## Supported tags and respective `Dockerfile` links\n\nLearn more about the Bitnami tagging policy and the difference between rolling tags and immutable tags [in our documentation page](https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/vmware-tanzu/application-catalog/tanzu-application-catalog/services/tac-doc/apps-tutorials-understand-rolling-tags-containers-index.html).\n\n## Get this image\n\nThe recommended way to get the Bitnami Kubectl Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the [Docker Hub Registry](https://hub.docker.com/r/bitnami/kubectl).\n\n```console\ndocker pull REGISTRY_NAME/bitnami/kubectl:latest\n```\n\nTo use a specific version, you can pull a versioned tag. You can view the [list of available versions](https://hub.docker.com/r/bitnami/kubectl/tags/) in the Docker Hub Registry.\n\n```console\ndocker pull REGISTRY_NAME/bitnami/kubectl:[TAG]\n```\n\nIf you wish, you can also build the image yourself by cloning the repository, changing to the directory containing the Dockerfile and executing the `docker build` command. Remember to replace the `APP`, `VERSION` and `OPERATING-SYSTEM` path placeholders in the example command below with the correct values.\n\n```console\ngit clone https://github.com/bitnami/containers.git\ncd bitnami/APP/VERSION/OPERATING-SYSTEM\ndocker build -t REGISTRY_NAME/bitnami/APP:latest .\n```\n\n## Configuration\n\nThe following section describes how to run commands\n\n### Running commands\n\nTo run commands inside this container you can use `docker run`, for example to execute `kubectl version` you can follow the example below:\n\n```console\ndocker run --rm --name kubectl REGISTRY_NAME/bitnami/kubectl:latest version\n```\n\nConsult the [Kubectl Reference Documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubectl/kubectl-commands) to find the completed list of commands available.\n\n### Loading your own configuration\n\nIt's possible to load your own configuration, which is useful if you want to connect to a remote cluster:\n\n```console\ndocker run --rm --name kubectl -v /path/to/your/kube/config:/.kube/config REGISTRY_NAME/bitnami/kubectl:latest\n```\n\n### FIPS configuration in Bitnami Secure Images\n\nThe Bitnami Kubectl Docker image from the [Bitnami Secure Images](https://go-vmware.broadcom.com/contact-us) catalog includes extra features and settings to configure the container with FIPS capabilities. You can configure the next environment variables:\n\n- `OPENSSL_FIPS`: whether OpenSSL runs in FIPS mode or not. `yes` (default), `no`.\n- `GODEBUG`: controls Go FIPS mode. Use `fips140=only` (restricted), `fips140=on` (relaxed), or `fips140=off` (disabled).\n\n## Notable Changes\n\n### Starting January 16, 2024\n\n- The `docker-compose.yaml` file has been removed, as it was solely intended for internal testing purposes.\n\n## License\n\nCopyright © 2026 Broadcom.
