Kubernetes Python client connection Issue

4/18/2019

I have setup Official Kubernetes Python Client (https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python).

I am running Python code to connect to a Kubernetes cluster and it's throwing an error:

urllib3.exceptions.MaxRetryError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='****', port=6443): Max retries exceeded with url: /api/v1/namespaces/default/pods (Caused by NewConnectionError(': Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 110] Connection timed out',))

Installed requirements:

cachetools        3.1.0 ,
certifi           2019.3.9 ,

kubectl is working fine with the same config $HOME/.kube/config and same proxy settings.

Below is my code:

from kubernetes import client, config
config.load_kube_config()
v1 = client.CoreV1Api()
print("Listing pods with their IPs:")
ret = v1.list_pod_for_all_namespaces(watch=False)

In my case simply loading the config via load_kube_config didn't work as well. I ended up first running a proxy:

kubectl proxy --port=8888

and then changing the host using the Configuration object:

configuration = client.Configuration()
configuration.host = "localhost:8888"
api_client = client.CoreV1Api(client.ApiClient(configuration))
