I want to copy a file from my Ubuntu machine to kube-controller-manager-ubuntu container. Currently I do that like this, but I think it has more straight solution in Kubernetes.

Does anyone know how to copy a file to a Kubernetes container?

it is similar to docker copy. 

kubectl cp /tmp/foo_dir <some-pod>:/tmp/bar_dir

Please refer here for examples and documentation

https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubectl/kubectl-commands#cp

In case you are using namespace then you wanna go like this -

kubectl cp ./file.csv <CONTAINER_ID>:/path/to/copy -n <namespace>

e.g.

kubectl ./file.csv b81dd0b1745c:/usr/cloud_ms/ -n cloud
