Unable to update to the lastest stable release on macOS 11.6

When I enter:

➜ (
  set -x; cd "$(mktemp -d)" &&
  OS="$(uname | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')" &&
  ARCH="$(uname -m | sed -e 's/x86_64/amd64/' -e 's/\(arm\)\(64\)\?.*/\1\2/' -e 's/aarch64$/arm64/')" &&
  curl -fsSLO "https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/krew/releases/latest/download/krew.tar.gz" &&
  tar zxvf krew.tar.gz &&
  KREW=./krew-"${OS}_${ARCH}" &&
  "$KREW" install krew
)

I'm getting the following:

+-zsh:3> mktemp -d

For now you can use:

RUN set -x; \ cd "$(mktemp -d)" && \ OS="$(uname | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')" && \ ARCH="$(uname -m | sed -e 's/x86_64/amd64/' -e 's/\(arm\)\(64\)\?.*/\1\2/' -e 's/aarch64$/arm64/')" && \ curl -fsSLO "https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/krew/releases/download/v0.4.1/krew.tar.gz" && \ tar zxvf krew.tar.gz && \ KREW=./krew-"${OS}_${ARCH}" && \ echo $KREW &&\ "$KREW" install krew

It seems like the 0.4.2 doesn't include a krew.tar.gz under it's assets.

ah there's an open PR currently for updating the install instructions after a change was made for releasing separated archives for each platform. if you already had krew installed then the usual kubectl krew upgrade should upgrade it properly. for new installs the instructions will be updated

[conradwt]

@chriskim06 kubectl krew upgrade does upgrade krew. However, the documentation says that this command would upgrade installed plugins to newer versions. Is this documentation missing from the help option or should there be another option for krew updating itself?

[chriskim06]

its mentioned in the docs that krew will upgrade itself using that command

Since Krew itself is a plugin also managed through Krew, running the upgrade command will also upgrade your krew setup to the latest version.

if you want to just upgrade krew by itself you can run kubectl krew upgrade krew

[chriskim06]

the docs should be updated now so going forward new installs of krew following the instructions in the doc should select the correct archive

/close
