Matrix
The kubernetes package supports different versions of Kubernetes. To understand which client versions support which Kubernetes versions, refer to the matrix below:
| Client Version | Kubernetes Versions |

| 17.0.0 | 1.22, 1.23, 1.24, 1.25, 1.26, 1.27, 1.28, 1.29, 1.30, 1.31 |
| 16.0.0 | 1.21, 1.22, 1.23, 1.24, 1.25, 1.26, 1.27, 1.28, 1.29, 1.30 |
| 15.0.0 | 1.20, 1.21, 1.22, 1.23, 1.24, 1.25, 1.26, 1.27, 1.28 |
| 14.0.0 | 1.19, 1.20, 1.21, 1.22, 1.23, 1.24, 1.25, 1.26 |
| 13.0.0 | 1.18, 1.19, 1.20, 1.21, 1.22, 1.23, 1.24 |
| 12.0.0 | 1.17, 1.18, 1.19, 1.20, 1.21, 1.22 |
| 11.0.0 | 1.16, 1.17, 1.18, 1.19, 1.20 |
| 10.0.0 | 1.15, 1.16, 1.17, 1.18, 1.19 |
| 9.0.0 | 1.14, 1.15, 1.16, 1.17, 1.18 |
| 8.0.0 | 1.13, 1.14, 1.15, 1.16, 1.17 |
| 7.0.0 | 1.12, 1.13, 1.14, 1.15, 1.16 |
| 6.0.0 | 1.11, 1.12, 1.13, 1.14, 1.15 |
| 5.0.0 | 1.10, 1.11, 1.12, 1.13, 1.14 |
| 4.0.0 | 1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 1.12, 1.13 |
| 3.0.0 | 1.8, 1.9, 1.10, 1.11, 1.12 |
The matrix above provides an overview of the supported versions. For detailed information on specific versions, refer to the documentation of the client version.
Example:
To use the client version 17.0.0 to interact with Kubernetes version 1.27, install the package:
pip install kubernetes==17.0.0
For more information on installing the package, refer to: https://packaging.python.org/distributing/
Note:
Kubernetes versions are supported by the client as long as the Kubernetes API specification remains backwards compatible. If you are using a client version that is older than the Kubernetes version you are connecting to, the client may not support all the features of the Kubernetes API. Refer to the documentation of the Kubernetes version you are connecting to for more information.
