How can I export a single kubectl context?

Question

How can I export a single kubectl context?

My current kubectl config file has multiple contexts defined, and it would be tedious manual process to try isolate the single context from the rest.

Is this supported?

Answer 1

I find the previous answer incomplete. To extract a context fron the current configuration file you may use the following command and flags.

kubectl config view --minify --flatten --context=mycontext > mycontext.ctx

Answer 2

kubectl config view --minify will remove all information not used by current-context from the output
