Getting started on AWS

Prerequisites

Cluster turnup

Download Kubernetes

a) Preferred Option: Install from 0.5 release
  1. wget https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes/releases/download/v0.5/kubernetes.tar.gz
  2. tar -xzf kubernetes.tar.gz; cd kubernetes
  3. export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/platforms/<os>/<platform>
  4. Temporary for v0.5 : Edit the cluster/aws/config-default.sh so that IMAGE=ami-39501209
b) Alternate Option: Install from source at head
  1. git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes.git
  2. cd kubernetes; make release
  3. export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/_output/local/bin/<os>/<platform>

Turn up the cluster

export KUBERNETES_PROVIDER=aws
cluster/kube-up.sh

The script above relies on AWS S3 to deploy the software to instances running in EC2.

Once the cluster is up, it will print the ip address of your cluster.

export KUBERNETES_MASTER=https://<ip-address>

Also setup your path to point to the released binaries:
