tOps Prerequisites for Windows WSL

This is for Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)¶

First Install Ubuntu on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) (if you have not done this before)¶

There are many ways and documents to enable WSL for windows. The below steps are written for Ubuntu shell. You can follow this link :https://ubuntu.com/wsl and scroll down to "Install Ubuntu on Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)" Feel free to use other guides if you prefer

Install Git¶

sudo apt-get install git

Reference: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/wsl-git

Install gh

curl -fsSL https://cli.github.com/packages/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg | sudo dd of=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/githubcli-archive-keyring.gpg] https://cli.github.com/packages stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/github-cli.list > /dev/null
sudo apt update
sudo apt install gh

Install nvm (running below will install npm, no separate steps needed)¶

Install cURL (a tool used for downloading content from the internet in the command-line) with:

sudo apt-get install curl

Now Install nvm

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.0/install.sh | bash

Then run below three commands:

export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"  # This loads nvm
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/bash_completion"

To verify installation, enter:

command -v nvm

The above should return 'nvm', if you receive 'command not found' or no response at all, close your current terminal, reopen it, and try again

Install node¶

Install the current stable LTS release of Node.js (recommended for production applications):

nvm install --lts

Install the current release of Node.js (for testing latest Node.js features and improvements, but more likely to have issues):

nvm install node

List what versions of Node are installed:

nvm ls

Based on above you should see the two versions that you just installed listed

Individually node, npm, nvm versions can be checked by

node –version
npm --version
nvm --version

Install jq¶

sudo apt update
sudo apt install jq

Install tree¶

sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu $(lsb_release -sc) main universe restricted multiverse"
sudo apt install tree
tree –version

Install oc¶

Use these instructions to get the latest version of oc (https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.7/cli_reference/openshift_cli/getting-started-cli.html)

Follow the instruction in the above URL and download latest oc version to “Downloads” folder of your windows (You can download to any folder in windows but below instructions are written assuming you will use Downloads folders. You can use below instructions as guidance to navigate to any folder your downloading the oc file to)

Once oc file downloaded go to wsl windows ubuntu terminal

cd /
cd mnt
cd c

pwd should show /mnt/c ls -la This should show all your windows folders

cd Users
cd 6X1234567

"6X1234567" is used as user folder name. You use your user folder name in Users folder

cd Downloads
pwd

should show /mnt/c/Users/6X1234567/Downloads

ls oc-4.9.18-linux.tar.gz
tar xvzf oc-4.9.18-linux.tar.gz

sudo -i (and enter your password)
echo $PATH

you should see something like /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/snap/bin Now we should copy oc and kubectl to /usr/local/sbin as that is the path shown in echo $PATH

cp oc /usr/local/sbin
cp kubectl /usr/local/sbin

Open a new Ubuntu shell and type

oc –help (should see all oc commands) oc version (should give you open shift version) kubectl version (should give you kubectl version)

Install kubeseal¶

wget https://github.com/bitnami-labs/sealed-secrets/releases/download/v0.16.0/kubeseal-linux-amd64 -O kubeseal
sudo install -m 755 kubeseal /usr/local/bin/kubeseal
