K8S Port Forward
Raw
gistfile1.txt
If you want to forward a non-k8s-managed port and have permission to stand up a new pod, you can run the alpine/socat image and port-forward to that:
kubectl run --restart=Never --image=alpine/socat TEMP_POD_NAME -- -d -d tcp-listen:PORT,fork,reuseaddr tcp-connect:HOSTNAME:PORT
kubectl wait --for=condition=Ready pod/TEMP_POD_NAME
kubectl port-forward pod/TEMP_POD_NAME LOCAL_PORT:PORT
Don't forget to bring the pod down once you're done.
kubectl delete pod/TEMP_POD_NAME --grace-period 1 --wait=false
