This guide describes how to quickly deploy a TiKV testing cluster using [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/) on a single machine. Currently, this installation method is supported only on Linux.
## Prerequisites
Make sure that you have the following items installed on your machine:
* [Docker](https://docker.com) (17.06.0 or later) and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/)
```shell
sudo yum install docker docker-compose
```
* [Helm](https://helm.sh/)
```shell
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/helm/master/scripts/get | bash
```
* [Git](https://git-scm.com/)
```shell
sudo yum install git
```
## Install and deploy
1. Clone `tidb-docker-compose`
```shell
git clone https://github.com/pingcap/tidb-docker-compose.git
cd tidb-docker-compose
```
1. Edit the `compose/values.yaml` file to configure the `networkMode` and `host` and comment the `tidb` section out.
1. Generate the `generated-docker-compose.yml` file
```shell
helm template compose > generated-docker-compose.yml
```
1. Create and start the cluster using the `generated-docker-compose.yml` file
```shell
docker-compose -f generated-docker-compose.yml pull # Get the latest Docker images
docker-compose -f generated-docker-compose.yml up -d
```
You can check whether the TiKV cluster has been successfully deployed using the following command:
```shell
curl localhost:2379/pd/api/v1/stores
```
If the state of all the TiKV instances is `Up` then you have successfully deployed a TiKV cluster!
