If you are using a released version of Kubernetes, you should refer to the docs that go with that version.
The latest release of this document can be found [here](http://releases.k8s.io/release-1.2/docs/devel/getting-builds.md).Documentation for other releases can be found at releases.k8s.io.
You can use hack/get-build.sh to or use as a reference on how to get the most recent builds with curl. With get-build.sh
you can grab the most recent stable build, the most recent release candidate, or the most recent build to pass our ci and gce e2e tests (essentially a nightly build).
Run ./hack/get-build.sh -h
for its usage.
For example, to get a build at a specific version (v1.1.1):
./hack/get-build.sh v1.1.1
Alternatively, to get the latest stable release:
./hack/get-build.sh release/stable
Finally, you can just print the latest or stable version:
./hack/get-build.sh -v ci/latest
You can also use the gsutil tool to explore the Google Cloud Storage release buckets. Here are some examples:
gsutil cat gs://kubernetes-release/ci/latest.txt # output the latest ci version number
gsutil cat gs://kubernetes-release/ci/latest-green.txt # output the latest ci version number that passed gce e2e
gsutil ls gs://kubernetes-release/ci/v0.20.0-29-g29a55cc/ # list the contents of a ci release
gsutil ls gs://kubernetes-release/release # list all official releases and rcs
Example installation:
$ curl -sSL https://storage.googleapis.com/pub/gsutil.tar.gz | sudo tar -xz -C /usr/local/src
$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/src/gsutil/gsutil /usr/bin/gsutil
