kbcli playground init

Bootstrap a kubernetes cluster and install KubeBlocks for playground.

Synopsis

Bootstrap a kubernetes cluster and install KubeBlocks for playground.

If no cloud provider is specified, a k3d cluster named kb-playground will be created on local host, otherwise a kubernetes cluster will be created on the specified cloud. Then KubeBlocks will be installed on the created kubernetes cluster, and an apecloud-mysql cluster named mycluster will be created.

kbcli playground init [flags]

Examples

  # create a k3d cluster on local host and install KubeBlocks
kbcli playground init

# create an AWS EKS cluster and install KubeBlocks, the region is required
kbcli playground init --cloud-provider aws --region us-west-1

# create an Alibaba cloud ACK cluster and install KubeBlocks, the region is required
kbcli playground init --cloud-provider alicloud --region cn-hangzhou

# create a Tencent cloud TKE cluster and install KubeBlocks, the region is required
kbcli playground init --cloud-provider tencentcloud --region ap-chengdu

# create a Google cloud GKE cluster and install KubeBlocks, the region is required
kbcli playground init --cloud-provider gcp --region us-east1

# after init, run the following commands to experience KubeBlocks quickly
# list database cluster and check its status
kbcli cluster list

# get cluster information
kbcli cluster describe mycluster

# connect to database
kbcli cluster connect mycluster

# view the Grafana
kbcli dashboard open kubeblocks-grafana

# destroy playground
kbcli playground destroy
