tip

It is common for the Kubernetes "default" namespace to be used when no namespace is provided. If you want your prompt to render an empty current namespace using the word "default", you can use something like this for the template:

{{.Context}} :: {{if .Namespace}}{{.Namespace}}{{else}}default{{end}}
