Getting Started

1. Create your Kubernetes cluster: doctl k8s cluster create example
2. Check that your cluster is available: kubectl --context do-nyc1-example get nodes
3. Deploy a workload to your cluster: kubectl --context do-nyc1-example apply -f manifest.yaml
4. Wait for the service to be ready: script/wait-for-service do-nyc1-example doks-example
5. Open the returned IP address in your browser, or run open http://$(kubectl --context do-nyc1-example get service doks-example --template="{{range .status.loadBalancer.ingress}}{{.ip}}{{end}}")

Or you can just run script/up to do all of this.

Cleaning up

Run script/down or doctl k8s cluster delete example

Note

• This example creates a DigitalOcean Load Balancer, which is a billable service. Load balancers cost $10/month, billed hourly at $0.015. Leaving this workload running will result in charges. More on load balancers here.
