Installation

The document will teach you how to install Vanus in a Kubernetes environment.

Prerequisites​

tip

If you want to run Vanus locally, we suggest that you use minikube. We also provide an interactive Kubernetes environment to simply deploy and try Vanus in your browser.

Before installing Vanus, you must meet the following prerequisites:

  1. Have a Kubernetes cluster.
  2. Have installed the kubectl.

Install Vanus​

Install Vanus by running the command:

kubectl apply -f https://dl.vanus.ai/all-in-one/v0.6.0.yml

After using kubectl apply, vanus namespace is created

kubectl get ns
NAME            STATUS      AGE
default         Active      6m35s
kube-node-lease          Active     6m36s
kube-public     Active      6m36s
kube-system     Active      6m36s
vanus           Active      46s

Switch Default Namespace to Vanus​

To switch default namespace to vanus use:

kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=vanus

Now, you can easily see the pods in the namespace

kubectl get pods

The output:

NAME                             READY   STATUS    RESTARTS    AGE
vanus-controller-0               1/1     Running   0           8s
vanus-controller-1               1/1     Running   0           9s
vanus-controller-2               1/1     Running   0           10s
vanus-gateway-7889df65c9-hvm97   1/1     Running   0           3s
vanus-store-0                    1/1     Running   0           10s
vanus-store-1                    1/1     Running   0           11s
vanus-store-2                    1/1     Running   0           12s
vanus-timer-88bc6885-fst27       1/1     Running   0           10s
vanus-trigger-8668cd4659-l9lgp   1/1     Running   0           10s

You can also access the pods without changing the default namespace. To do this, use:

kubectl get pods -n vanus

This can be done after installing Vanus with:

kubectl apply -f https://dl.vanus.ai/all-in-one/v0.6.0.yml
