KIND (Kubernetes IN Docker) is a tool for running local Kubernetes clusters using Docker containers as nodes. It's designed for testing Kubernetes applications locally.
IMPORTANT: Before you proceed with installation, make sure you have docker installed locally.
To install KIND on a Debian/Ubuntu system:
# Download KIND binary
curl -Lo ./kind https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/dl/v0.22.0/kind-linux-amd64
# Make it executable
chmod +x ./kind
# Move to a directory in your PATH
sudo mv ./kind /usr/local/bin/
To install kubectl:
# Download kubectl
curl -LO "https://dl.k8s.io/release/$(curl -L -s https://dl.k8s.io/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl"
# Make it executable
chmod +x kubectl
# Move to a directory in your PATH
sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/
Create a basic KIND cluster:
kind create cluster
