If you are using a released version of Kubernetes, you should refer to the docs that go with that version.
The latest 1.0.x release of this document can be found [here](http://releases.k8s.io/release-1.0/docs/getting-started-guides/juju.md).Documentation for other releases can be found at releases.k8s.io.
Juju handles provisioning machines and deploying complex systems to a wide number of clouds, supporting service orchestration once the bundle of services has been deployed.

Note: If you're running kube-up, on ubuntu - all of the dependencies will be handled for you. You may safely skip to the section: Launch Kubernetes Cluster
Install the Juju client on your local ubuntu system:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:juju/stable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install juju-core juju-quickstart
If you are not using ubuntu or prefer the isolation of docker, you may run the following:
mkdir ~/.juju
sudo docker run -v ~/.juju:/home/ubuntu/.juju -ti whitmo/jujubox:latest
At this point from either path you will have access to the juju quickstart
command.
To set up the credentials for your chosen cloud run:
juju quickstart --constraints="mem=3.75G" -i
Follow the dialogue and choose save
and use
. Quickstart will now
bootstrap the juju root node and setup the juju web based user
interface.
Kubernetes releases can be downloaded from this page.
You will need to have the Kubernetes tools compiled before launching the cluster
make all WHAT=cmd/kubectl
export KUBERNETES_PROVIDER=juju
cluster/kube-up.sh
If this is your first time running the kube-up.sh
script, it will install
the required predependencies to get started with Juju, additionally it will
launch a curses based configuration utility allowing you to select your cloud
provider and enter the proper access credentials.
Next it will deploy the Kubernetes master, etcd, 2 nodes with flannel based Software Defined Networking.
Juju status provides information about each unit in the cluster:
juju status --format=oneline
- docker/0: 52.4.92.78 (started)
- flannel-docker/0: 52.4.92.78 (started)
- kubernetes/0: 52.4.92.78 (started)
- docker/1: 52.6.104.142 (started)
- flannel-docker/1: 52.6.104.142 (started)
- kubernetes/1: 52.6.104.142 (started)
- etcd/0: 52.5.216.210 (started) 4001/tcp
- juju-gui/0: 52.5.205.174 (started) 80/tcp, 443/tcp
- kubernetes-master/0: 52.6.19.238 (started) 8080/tcp
You can use juju ssh
to access any of the units:
juju ssh kubernetes-master/0
kubectl
is available on the Kubernetes master node. We'll ssh in to
launch some containers, but one could use kubectl locally setting
KUBERNETES_MASTER to point at the ip of kubernetes-master/0
.
No pods will be available before starting a container:
kubectl get pods
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
kubectl get replicationcontrollers
CONTROLLER CONTAINER(S) IMAGE(S) SELECTOR REPLICAS
We'll follow the aws-coreos example. Create a pod manifest: pod.json
{
"apiVersion": "v1",
"kind": "Pod",
"metadata": {
"name": "hello",
"labels": {
"name": "hello",
"environment": "testing"
}
},
"spec": {
"containers": [{
"name": "hello",
"image": "quay.io/kelseyhightower/hello",
"ports": [{
"containerPort": 80,
"hostPort": 80
}]
}]
}
}
Create the pod with kubectl:
kubectl create -f pod.json
Get info on the pod:
kubectl get pods
To test the hello app, we need to locate which node is hosting
the container. Better tooling for using juju to introspect container
is in the works but we can use juju run
and juju status
to find
our hello app.
Exit out of our ssh session and run:
juju run --unit kubernetes/0 "docker ps -n=1"
...
juju run --unit kubernetes/1 "docker ps -n=1"
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
02beb61339d8 quay.io/kelseyhightower/hello:latest /hello About an hour ago Up About an hour k8s_hello....
We see kubernetes/1
has our container, we can open port 80:
juju run --unit kubernetes/1 "open-port 80"
juju expose kubernetes
sudo apt-get install curl
curl $(juju status --format=oneline kubernetes/1 | cut -d' ' -f3)
Finally delete the pod:
juju ssh kubernetes-master/0
kubectl delete pods hello
We can add node units like so:
juju add-unit docker # creates unit docker/2, kubernetes/2, docker-flannel/2
The k8petstore example is available as a juju action.
juju action do kubernetes-master/0
Note: this example includes curl statements to exercise the app, which automatically generates "petstore" transactions written to redis, and allows you to visualize the throughput in your browser.
./kube-down.sh
or
juju destroy-environment --force `juju env`

Juju runs natively against a variety of cloud providers and can be made to work against many more using a generic manual provider.
