Installing Lightweight Kubernetes
There are many different ways to achieve this. The way I would normally deploy the latest version is by using the following command
curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -
sudo k3s kubectl get node
Generating a token:
sudo k3s kubectl config view --raw >> ~/config_k3s.yam
Protect this file accordingly or kubernetes will remind you of the admin good practises you should know about already.
Adding a variable (You can leave this default too)
export KUBECONFIG=~/config_k3s.yaml
Installing HELM CLI
Please visit This repository to download the apropriate version for your architecture. In this document I am using AMD64
Download the tar gzipped file and extract anywhere convenient
mv helm-v3.14.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz /tmp; tar -xzvf helm-v3.14.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz
In the extracted directory look for the helm binary file, make sure it has executable permissions and place it in /usr/local/bin
#For example:
sudo mv linux-amd64/helm /usr/local/bin
chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/helm
