Install Docker on Linux -
As I'm using an Amazon Linux I can install docker with a
yum install docker -y
Start docker service - systemctl start docker
For Docker Installations - https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/
Install Go -
Go to https://go.dev/dl/
Copy the link of go tarfile for linux platform
Install using wget
Extract it using tar zxf go1.17.7.linux-amd64.tar.gz -C /usr/local
- Add /usr/local/go/bin to the PATH variable.
Install KinD
go install sigs.k8s.io/kind@v0.11.1
You can replace v0.11.1 with the latest stable kind version
Move the KinD Binary to /usr/local/bin -
- You can find the kind binary inside the directory go/bin
- Move it to /usr/local/bin - mv go/bin/kind /usr/local/bin
- Make sure you have a path setup for /usr/local/bin
Install Latest Version of Kubectl:
curl -LO "https://dl.k8s.io/release/$(curl -L -s https://dl.k8s.io/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl"
chmod +x kubectl
mv kubectl /usr/local/bin
Create a cluster with kind
kind create cluster --name labcluster
kubectl get nodes -o wide
docker ps
You are now running KinD successfully in Linux
Once done you can delete the cluster using
kind delete cluster
Multi-Node Cluster -
Create a config file kind-example-config.yaml
kind: Cluster
apiVersion: kind.x-k8s.io/v1alpha4
nodes:
- role: control-plane
- role: worker
- role: worker
kind create cluster --config kind-cluster-config.yaml
You now have a running KinD Cluster with one master and two worker nodes.
kubectl get nodes -o wide
