Quick Start

1. Create local k3d cluster. Therefore, you need to install k3d if not already present on your machine. You can skip this if k3d is already available on your machine.

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/k3d/main/install.sh | TAG=v4.4.4 bash

Now, let’s start a cluster for Keptn!

k3d cluster create mykeptn -p "8082:80@agent[0]" --k3s-server-arg '--no-deploy=traefik' --agents 1

1. Download and install the Keptn CLI

curl -sL https://get.keptn.sh | bash

1. Install Keptn control-plane and execution-plane for continuous delivery use case

keptn install --use-case=continuous-delivery

Keptn comes with different installation options, please have a look at the installation documentation for more details on cluster requirements, resource consumption, supported Kubernetes versions, and more.

1. Install and configure Istio for Ingress + continuous delivery use-case

curl -SL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/keptn/keptn.github.io/master/content/docs/quickstart/exposeKeptnConfigureIstio.sh | bash

1. (Optional but recommended) Create a demo project with multi-stage pipeline + SLO-based quality gates

curl -SL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/keptn/keptn.github.io/master/content/docs/quickstart/get-demo.sh | bash

1. Explore Keptn! Please have a look at our tutorials and documentation to learn how you can use Keptn.

2. If you are finished exploring Keptn, you can always stop and start the cluster and delete it eventually.

k3d cluster stop mykeptn
k3d cluster start mykeptn

Or delete it if you don’t need it anymore

k3d cluster delete mykeptn
