'kubectl kudo plugin not working after install using brew in linux?

I have installed the kudo plugin on my Linux machine following the instructions in the Kudo CLI page using brew. But it throws error on execution,

user@factotum:~$ kubectl kudo
Error: unknown command "kudo" for "kubectl"
Run 'kubectl --help' for usage.

I tried to list the available plugins, but doesn't have any,

user@factotum:~$ kubectl plugin list
error: unable to find any kubectl plugins

Just installed to reproduce and seems works fine. Have you init it with kubectl kudo init as it mentioned in Install KUDO into your cluster?

My steps(Ubuntu 16.04, 4.15.0-1033-gcp):

$sudo apt install linuxbrew-wrapper
$brew update
$brew vendor-install ruby
$brew update

$ kubectl plugin list
The following compatible plugins are available:

Hope it helps

Can you execute kubectl-kudo? A kubectl plugin is basically just a binary that starts with kubectl-.

So, check where brew installed the kudo binary and check your $PATH.

And you can use kubectl-kudo instead of kubectl kudo if the plugin mechanism doesn't work for some reason.

Did you remember to add the brew environment variables to your shell?

As pr https://brew.sh/ and their install-script https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh you need to add brew to your PATH among others.

OP is tagging bash here so adding this to your shell configuration file. There will be slight variations based on what shell the user is running, bash, ksh, csh, tcsh.

# At the bottom of .bashrc or .bash_profile
eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
