In this module you prepare your local computer for the tutorial.
|
|
|
|
1. Install [`curl`](https://curl.haxx.se/download.html).
|
|
|
|
1. Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/).
|
|
|
|
1. Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/install/).
|
|
|
|
1. Install [`kubectl`](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/).
|
|
|
|
1. Set the `KUBECONFIG` environment variable for the configuration file you received from the tutorial instructors, or
|
|
created yourself in the previous module.
|
|
|
|
{{< text bash >}}
|
|
$ export KUBECONFIG=<the file you recieved or created in the previous module>
|
|
{{< /text >}}
|
|
|
|
1. Verify that the configuration took effect by printing the current namespace:
|
|
|
|
{{< text bash >}}
|
|
$ kubectl config view -o jsonpath="{.contexts[?(@.name==\"$(kubectl config current-context)\")].context.namespace}"
|

|
{{< /text >}}

You should see in the output the name of the namespace, allocated for you by the instructors or allocated by
|
|
yourself in the previous module.
|
|
|
|
1. Download one of the [Istio release archives](https://github.com/istio/istio/releases) and extract
|
|
the `istioctl` command line tool from the `bin` directory, and verify that you
|
|
can run `istioctl` with the following command:
|
|
|
|
{{< text bash >}}
|
|
$ istioctl version
