In this lab you will install the command line utilities required to complete this tutorial: cfssl, cfssljson, and kubectl.
The cfssl
and cfssljson
command line utilities will be used to provision a PKI Infrastructure and generate TLS certificates.
Download and install cfssl
and cfssljson
:
curl -o cfssl https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-the-hard-way/cfssl/darwin/cfssl
curl -o cfssljson https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-the-hard-way/cfssl/darwin/cfssljson
chmod +x cfssl cfssljson
sudo mv cfssl cfssljson /usr/local/bin/
Some OS X users may experience problems using the pre-built binaries in which case Homebrew might be a better option:
brew install cfssl
wget -q --timestamping \
https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-the-hard-way/cfssl/linux/cfssl \
https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-the-hard-way/cfssl/linux/cfssljson
chmod +x cfssl cfssljson
sudo mv cfssl cfssljson /usr/local/bin/
Verify cfssl
and cfssljson
version 1.3.4 or higher is installed:
cfssl version
output
Version: 1.3.4
Revision: dev
Runtime: go1.13
cfssljson --version
Version: 1.3.4
Revision: dev
Runtime: go1.13
The kubectl
command line utility is used to interact with the Kubernetes API Server. Download and install kubectl
from the official release binaries:
curl -o kubectl https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.15.3/bin/darwin/amd64/kubectl
chmod +x kubectl
sudo mv kubectl /usr/local/bin/
wget https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.15.3/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
chmod +x kubectl
sudo mv kubectl /usr/local/bin/
Verify kubectl
version 1.15.3 or higher is installed:
kubectl version --client
output
