Hands-On

Docker exercises

Run

bin/w6p exercise docker -nX

to start the Docker exercise number X.

Kubernetes exercises

First you need to start the local Kubernetes workshop cluster:

bin/w6p cluster run

Note: This cluster runs within the Docker container k8s-workshop-cluster-control-plane. Cou can shutdown the workshop cluster by either of the following commands:

bin/w6p cluster shutdown
docker rm -f k8s-workshop-cluster-control-plane

Interact with workshop cluster

The easiest way to interact with the workshop cluster can be accomplished by

export KUBECONFIG=$(pwd)/k8s-workshop.kubeconfig
k9s

Kubernetes exercises

First start the workshop cluster through make cluster run. Then run

bin/w6p exercise k8s -nX

to start the Kubernetes exercise number X. Each exercise will be deployed into a fresh namespace exX including the exercise number X, for example ex1.
