+# kubectl-action
+
+GitHub Action to manage a K8s (Kubernetes) cluster using kubectl.
+
+## Usage
+
+To use this action, add the following step to your GitHub Action workflow:
+
+```yaml
+- uses: tale/kubectl-action@v1
+  with:
+    base64-kube-config: ${{ secrets.KUBE_CONFIG }}
+```
+
+Keep in mind that the action expects a base64 encoded string of your Kubernetes configuration. The simplest way to do that is to run `cat $HOME/.kube/config | base64` and save that output as an action secret. It's additionally possible to generate a config file using the `aws` CLI for EKS or any other tools with other cloud providers.
+
+It's also possible to specify the version of the [kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/) CLI to use. The current default release used by this action is the latest version.
+
+```yaml
+- uses: tale/kubectl-action@v1
+  with:
+    base64-kube-config: ${{ secrets.KUBE_CONFIG }}
+    kubectl-version: v1.22.0
+```
+
+Once you've completed this setup, you have direct access to the `kubectl` binary and command in the rest of your actions. Here's a full example to give you some inspiration:
+
+```yaml
+name: Kubectl Action
+
+on:
+  workflow_dispatch:
+
+jobs:
+  build:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    steps:
+    - uses: tale/kubectl-action@v1
+      with:
+        base64-kube-config: ${{ secrets.KUBE_CONFIG }}
+    - run: kubectl get pods
+```
+
+Here's an example using AWS EKS:
+
+```yaml
+name: Kubectl Action
+
+on:
+  workflow_dispatch:
+
+jobs:
+  build:
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    steps:
+    - name: Configure AWS Credentials
+      uses: aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials@v4
+      with:
+        role-to-assume: arn:aws:iam::123456789100:role/my-github-actions-role
+        aws-region: us-east-2
+    - name: Generate kubeconfig
+      run: echo "EKS_CREDS=$(aws eks update-kubeconfig --region us-east-2 --name my-cluster --dry-run | base64) >> $GITHUB_ENV
+    - uses: tale/kubectl-action@v1
+      with:
+        base64-kube-config: ${{ env.EKS_CREDS }}
+    - run: kubectl get pods
+```
