You can download and install Lens here, then use the kubectl tool from the terminal. It also, however, provides alternative ways to accomplish most of these tasks without actually using kubectl. The easiest way to get access to kubectl is to install Lens, which includes kubectl. Sudo install -o root -g root -m 0755 kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectlįor more information on installing kubectl or for instructions for other operating systems, see the kubectl documentation. Installing kubectl on Linux is a simple matter of downloading the binary and adding it to your path: curl -LO '$(curl -L -s >)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl' The k0s install comes with its own installation of kubectl, so no installation is required, You would simply add 'k0s' to the head of each command, as in: k0s kubectl get nodes Install kubectl manually You can get kubectl, the standard Kubernetes client, in multiple ways. Sudo chown $USER ~/Documents/kubeconfig.cfgĮxport set KUBECONFIG=~/Documents/kubeconfig.cfgįor more information on installing k0s, including making your clusters available from other machines, see this guide to getting started with k0s. Sudo cp /var/lib/k0s/pki/nf ~/Documents/kubeconfig.cfg To actually perform the installation, perform these steps on a Linux host: sudo curl -sSLf k0s.sh | sudo sh

The minimum requirements for this install are: There are many ways to create a Kubernetes cluster in this case we are assuming you are using k0s with a single-node configuration. Setting up a Kubernetes Environment is straightforward. In general, any of these commands will work with any of these objects.

Service - An abstraction which serves as a proxy for a group of Pods performing a “service”

Master - Control plane components which provide access point for admins to manage cluster workloads Labels - User defined Key:Value pair associated to Pods Pods - Group of containers and volumes which share the same network namespace Node (Worker) - Physical or virtual servers where workloads run in a given container technology Node (Master) - Physical or virtual server that controls the Kubernetes cluster The architecture looks something like this:Ĭluster - Group of physical or virtual servers wherein Kubernetes is installed Kubernetes provides a way to orchestrate containers to provide a robust, cloud native environment. This Kubernetes cheat sheet is designed to help solve that problem. Often you know what you want to do, you just can't remember the vocabulary or syntax for how to do it.
