- Before we set up the Kubernetes Goat, ensure that you have created and have admin access to the Kubernetes cluster
kubectl version --short- Set up the helm version 2 in your path as
helm2. Refer to helm releases for more information about setup
helm2 --help- Then finally setup Kubernetes Goat by running the following command
git clone https://github.com/madhuakula/kubernetes-goat.git
cd kubernetes-goat
bash setup-kubernetes-goat.sh- To export the ports/services locally to start learning, run the following command
bash access-kubernetes-goat.sh- Then navigate to http://127.0.0.1:1234
