Issue Running Kompose up and deploying to GKE

[archcloudlabs]

When executing kompose up on a docker-compose YML file it appears to always try a local connection and not the remote cluster even with the KUBERNETES_MASTER environment argument sent to the upstream cluster IP.

The error I receive is as follows:

FATA Error while deploying application: Get https://127.0.0.1:6443/api: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:6443: connect: connection refused

kompose version: 1.21.0 (992df58)

Leveraging kubectl proxy resolved this issue.
