# Install Kubernetes

You can choose any Kubernetes install of your choice. The test framework only depends on `kubectl`
|
|
|
|
|
being configured. To install `kubectl`, please see the [official guide](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/#kubectl).

# Minikube

The developers of Rook are working on Minikube and thus it is the recommended way to quickly get
|
|
|
|
|
Rook up and running. Minikube should not be used for production but the Rook authors
|
|
|
|
|
consider it great for development. While other tools such as k3d/kind are great, users have faced
|
|
|
|
|
issues deploying Rook.

**Always use a virtual machine when testing Rook, never use your host system.**

|
|
|
To install Minikube follow the [official
|
|
|
|
|
guide](https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/). It is recommended to use the
|
|
|
|
|
kvm2 driver when running on a Linux machine and the hyperkit driver when running on a MacOS. Both
|
|
|
|
|
allow to create and attach additional disks to the virtual machine. This is required for the Ceph
|
|
|
|
|
OSD to consume one drive. We don't recommend any other drivers for Rook. You will need a Minikube
|
|
|
|
|
version 1.23 or higher.

Starting the cluster on Minikube is as simple as running:
|
2018-01-12 18:24:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2019-10-25 09:25:07 +02:00
|
|
|
```console
|
2021-11-23 15:25:12 +01:00
|
|
|
# On Linux
|
|
|
|
|
minikube start --disk-size=40g --extra-disks=1 --driver kvm2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# On MacOS
|
|
|
|
|
minikube start --disk-size=40g --extra-disks=1 --driver hyperkit
|
2018-01-12 18:24:33 +01:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
2021-11-23 15:25:12 +01:00
|
|
|
It is recommended to install a Docker client on your host system too. Depending on your operating
|
|
|
|
|
system follow the [official guide](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/binaries/).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stopping the cluster and destroying the Minikube virtual machine can be done with:
|
2018-01-12 18:24:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2019-10-25 09:25:07 +02:00
|
|
|
```console
|
2021-11-23 15:25:12 +01:00
|
|
|
minikube delete
|
2018-01-12 18:24:33 +01:00
|
|

```

|
|
|
Use [helm.sh](/tests/scripts/helm.sh) to install Helm and set up Rook charts defined under `_output/charts` (generated by build):
|
2018-01-12 18:24:33 +01:00
|
|
|
|
2021-11-23 15:25:12 +01:00
|
|
|
- To install and set up Helm charts for Rook run `tests/scripts/helm.sh up`.
|
|
|
|
|
- To clean up `tests/scripts/helm.sh clean`.

2021-11-23 15:25:12 +01:00
|
|
|
**NOTE:** These helper scripts depend on some artifacts under the `_output/` directory generated during build time.
|
|
|
|
|
These scripts should be run from the project root.

|
|
|
|
2021-11-23 15:25:12 +01:00
|
|
|
**NOTE**: If Helm is not available in your `PATH`, Helm will be downloaded to a temporary directory
|
|
|
|
|
(`/tmp/rook-tests-scripts-helm`) and used from that directory.
