# 安装 kubectl 命令行工具

本文档介绍下载和配置 kubernetes 集群命令行工具 kubelet 的步骤。

## 下载 kubectl

注意请下载对应的Kubernetes版本的安装包。

```bash
wget https://dl.k8s.io/v1.6.0/kubernetes-client-linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar -xzvf kubernetes-client-linux-amd64.tar.gz
cp kubernetes/client/bin/kube* /usr/bin/
chmod a+x /usr/bin/kube*
```

## 创建 kubectl kubeconfig 文件

```bash
export KUBE_APISERVER="https://172.20.0.113:6443"
# 设置集群参数
kubectl config set-cluster kubernetes \
  --certificate-authority=/etc/kubernetes/ssl/ca.pem \
  --embed-certs=true \
  --server=${KUBE_APISERVER}
# 设置客户端认证参数
kubectl config set-credentials admin \
  --client-certificate=/etc/kubernetes/ssl/admin.pem \
  --embed-certs=true \
  --client-key=/etc/kubernetes/ssl/admin-key.pem
# 设置上下文参数
kubectl config set-context kubernetes \
  --cluster=kubernetes \
  --user=admin
# 设置默认上下文
kubectl config use-context kubernetes
```

* `admin.pem` 证书 OU 字段值为 `system:masters`，`kube-apiserver` 预定义的 RoleBinding `cluster-admin` 将 Group `system:masters` 与 Role `cluster-admin` 绑定，该 Role 授予了调用`kube-apiserver` 相关 API 的权限；
* 生成的 kubeconfig 被保存到 `~/.kube/config` 文件；

**注意：**`~/.kube/config`文件拥有对该集群的最高权限，请妥善保管。

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://doc.cncf.vip/kubernetes-handbook/zui-jia-shi-jian/install-kubernetes-on-centos/kubectl-installation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
