3### How to run the bannerctl locally
4- Create a .env file in the cmd/bannerctl directory
5- Add the following environment variables needed to run the bannerctl, CHARIOT_ENDPOINT, DOMAIN, GCP_FOREMAN_PROJECT_ID, GCP_PLAT_INFRA_PROJECT_ID, GCP_TENANTS_FOLDER_ID, REGISTRY_PROJECT_ID, REGISTRY_RESOURCE_ID, GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS. P.S. if you do not know these values, you can obtain them from a currently running bannerctl pod in dev0 foreman.
6- The GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS will be the path to the bannerctl service account
7- Set your kubectl context to the context of the kubernetes cluster you will like to run the controller against.
8- For VSCode users you can add a new configuration to your launch.json file that will look like so
