eksctl

The official CLI for Amazon EKS. More information: https://eksctl.io.
  • Create a basic cluster:
    eksctl create cluster
  • List the details about a cluster or all of the clusters:
    eksctl get cluster --name={{name}} --region={{region}}
  • Create a cluster passing all configuration information in a file:
    eksctl create cluster --config-file={{path/to/file}}
  • Create a cluster using a configuration file and skip creating nodegroups until later:
    eksctl create cluster --config-file=<path> --without-nodegroup
  • Delete a cluster:
    eksctl delete cluster --name={{name}} --region={{region}}
  • Create cluster and write cluster credentials to a file other than the default:
    eksctl create cluster --name={{name}} --nodes={{4}} --kubeconfig={{path/to/config.yaml}}
  • Create a cluster and prevent storing cluster credentials locally:
    eksctl create cluster --name={{name}} --nodes={{4}} --write-kubeconfig=false
  • Create a cluster and let eksctl manage cluster credentials under the ~/.kube/eksctl/clusters directory:
    eksctl create cluster --name={{name}} --nodes={{4}} --auto-kubeconfig
