Prerequisites

Prerequisites for Kubernetes

Install the kubectl

Use the Kubernetes command-line tool, kubectl, to deploy and manage applications on Kubernetes. Using kubectl, you can inspect cluster resources; create, delete, and update components; and look at your new cluster and bring up example apps.

More information and systems in kubernetes.io / Install and Set Up kubectl

kubectl setup on Linux

curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
sudo install -m 755 -o root -g root kubectl /usr/local/bin

kubectl setup on Mac

Using Homebrew package manager.

brew install kubectl

kubectl setup on Windows

Install-Script -Name install-kubectl -Scope CurrentUser -Force
install-kubectl.ps1

Prerequisites for Azure

Install Azure CLI

It's strongly recommend that you use a package manager for the CLI. A package manager makes sure you always get the latest updates, and guarantees the stability of CLI components. Check and see if there is a package for your distribution before installing manually.

More information and systems at Install Azure CLI 2.0.

Azure CLI setup on Linux and Mac

curl -L https://aka.ms/InstallAzureCli | bash

Azure CLI setup on Windows

Download the Azure CLI Installer

Managed Kubernetes with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

Create resource group

export AZ_AKS_NAME='bcncloud-aks'
export AZ_AKS_RG="${AZ_AKS_NAME}-rg"
az group create --name ${AZ_AKS_RG} --location australiaeast

Create AKS Cluster

az aks create \
    --resource-group ${AZ_AKS_RG} \
    --name ${AZ_AKS_NAME} \
    --node-count 3 \
    --node-vm-size Standard_B2s \
    --generate-ssh-keys

Configure AKS Kubectl context

az aks get-credentials \
    --resource-group ${AZ_AKS_RG} \
    --name ${AZ_AKS_NAME}

Get information from the Kubernetes cluster

kubectl cluster-info

kubectl get cs

Clean up

To remove the resources deployed, remove the resource group.

az group  delete --resource-group ${AZ_AKS_RG}
