SCP nats-box creds k8s
Note to self, for k8s local testing a quick way to do some debugging with access to nats is via nats-box. In control plane you need creds so I just cp a creds file into the container.
kubectl cp ~/Downloads/my.creds nats-box-664bcb786c-6wt22:/tmp/my.creds -n nats
Then use it from inside the container.
If you have network path to the cluster/control plane server then you can just use nats CLI as is. E.g. nats -s $NATS_URL --creds my.creds rtt
