How to run Bridge-to-Kubernetes without Remote agent?

[astryia]

If I'm developing new service I don't need traffic from the cluster to be redirected to development machine but I still need k8s services to be addressable.
I didn't find documentation describing how to run Bridge-to-Kubernetes in such mode.

@astryia Thanks for raising this concern. bridge to k8s doesn't work for this scenario, it is debugging tool that redirects traffic always to/from your local machine. But I have seen other users have combined this tool + kubefwd to make this happen. Here is the issue that was raised in the past but was closed due to no response from the user. #194. Please let me know if this helps.

@hsubramanianaks, thank you! I've tried kubefwd and it seems to do the job.
I'm just wondering why not to extend Bridge-to-Kubernetes to this scenario as well? It already has all the necessary functionality like updating hosts file and ports forwarding. Using one tool is always more convenient way compared to multiple.

@astryia Thanks for the response. Yes, this is valid ask, we will add to backlog after discussing with PM's and will keep you updated.
