DEPRECATED
----------
:Removed in collection release after
:Why: As discussed in https://github.com/ansible-collections/kubernetes.core/issues/31, we decided to
remove the k8s inventory plugin in release 4.0.0.
:Alternative: Use :ref:`kubernetes.core.k8s_info <kubernetes.core.k8s_info_module>` and :ref:`ansible.builtin.add_host <ansible.builtin.add_host_module>` instead.
Synopsis
--------
- Fetch containers and services for one or more clusters.
- Groups by cluster name, namespace, namespace_services, namespace_pods, and labels.
- Uses the kubectl connection plugin to access the Kubernetes cluster.
- Uses k8s.(yml|yaml) YAML configuration file to set parameter values.

The below requirements are needed on the local Ansible controller node that executes this inventory.
- python >= 3.9
- kubernetes >= 24.2.0
- PyYAML >= 3.11
