How to download a specific version of Lens (k8slens)

Viewed 178

I want to install a previous, specific version of k8slens (https://k8slens.dev/) but impossible for me to find this (neither for mac nor windows !) Do I have to download the source code and rebuild it? Even with this there is no "install" section in the makefile ! Why is it so difficult to find a specific version?

Yes, you can easily download the source code for a specific version tag and the compile and use it. The list of tags is here.

Once you get the source code of your desired version you can generate the binary with :

make build

And then simply run that binary to get your required version. Just know that install simply means copying a compiled binary in a known Path of the system so it can be executed. There is nothing special about it.
