Here are the steps to set up Docker and Kubernetes for learning on your home desktop server:
First, you'll need to install Docker on your desktop server. Follow the installation instructions for your operating system on the Docker website.
Install Minikube:
Minikube is a tool that makes it easy to run a single-node Kubernetes cluster locally. To install Minikube, follow the instructions for your operating system on the Minikube GitHub page.
Once Minikube is installed, you can start it using the following command:
#sql
minikube start
This will set up a virtual machine on your desktop server that runs a single-node Kubernetes cluster.
To verify that Minikube is running, run the following command:
minikube status
You should see that the cluster is running and that the Kubernetes context is set to the Minikube cluster.
Now that Minikube is running, you can deploy a sample application to the cluster. You can use the following command to deploy a simple web server: lua
kubectl create deployment hello-minikube --image=k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.10
The application is running inside the Minikube cluster, but it's not accessible from outside the cluster. To expose the application, you need to create a service:
kubectl expose deployment hello-minikube --type=NodePort --port=8080
You can access the application using the URL shown by the following command:
minikube service hello-minikube --url
These are the basic steps to set up Docker and Kubernetes for learning on your home desktop server. You can now start exploring and learning more about Docker and Kubernetes by deploying and managing applications in your Minikube cluster.
