In this first section of the quick start, we will setup our kubernetes cluster by using minikube.
You need to have installed minikube, and respect the hardware requirements (with at least 10Gb of RAM).
We are going to start minikube using the following command:
make start_minikube
Minikube will use the driver
hyperkit
, which could be an issue for Linux and Windows distributions, as mentioned in issue #11.
We can also start the provided minikube-dashboard. We can start it using the following command, ideally in a second terminal:
minikube dashboard
After realizing this step, we have a ready-to-go kubernetes cluster. We can either check the status of our cluster using minikube dashboard, or by simply using the command line with kubectl
.
In the next section we will setup Jaeger. Detailed here.
