<div>Whether or not to save the kube config refresh tokens. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PERSIST_CONFIG environment variable.</div>
<div>When the k8s context is using a user credentials with refresh tokens (like oidc or gke/gcloud auth), the token is refreshed by the k8s python client library but not saved by default. So the old refresh token can expire and the next auth might fail. Setting this flag to true will tell the k8s python client to save the new refresh token to the kube config file.</div>
<div>Default to false.</div>
<div>Please note that the current version of the k8s python client library does not support setting this flag to True yet.</div>
<div>The fix for this k8s python library is here: https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python-base/pull/169</div>

Notes
-----
.. note::
- To avoid SSL certificate validation errors when ``validate_certs`` is *True*, the full certificate chain for the API server must be provided via ``ca_cert`` or in the kubeconfig file.
Examples
--------
.. code-block:: yaml
- name: Get a log from a Pod
kubernetes.core.k8s_log:
name: example-1
namespace: testing
register: log
# This will get the log from the first Pod found matching the selector
- name: Log a Pod matching a label selector
kubernetes.core.k8s_log:
namespace: testing
label_selectors:
- app=example
register: log
# This will get the log from a single Pod managed by this Deployment
- name: Get a log from a Deployment
kubernetes.core.k8s_log:
api_version: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
namespace: testing
name: example
since_seconds: "4000"
register: log
# This will get the log from a single Pod managed by this DeploymentConfig
- name: Get a log from a DeploymentConfig
kubernetes.core.k8s_log:
api_version: apps.openshift.io/v1
kind: DeploymentConfig
namespace: testing
name: example
register: log
