Pre-requisites

Deploying Drogue Cloud, you will need a few tools on your local machine. In most cases a Linux/Unix environment is assumed, which includes Mac OS X.

Command line tools

drg- aka Drogue command line client
http - aka HTTPie
mqtt - aka MQTT CLI
kubectl - https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/
helm – Helm CLI

Kubernetes Cluster

You will need a Kubernetes cluster in order to deploy Drogue Cloud. For running outside Kubernetes, have a look at the bare metal deployment.

In general, any Kubernetes cluster should work. However, we mostly test with:

Minikube – https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/
Kind – https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/quick-start/
OpenShift or OKD – https://www.openshift.com/ or https://www.okd.io/
