Cet a Kubernetes cluster ready to deploy applications on it.

Kind

$ kind create cluster --name obs-wshop --config ./kind/kind.yaml

Nginx Ingress

Add Helm repositories

Helm Stable (will be depreated on Nov 2020)

$ helm repo add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com
"stable" has been added to your repositories

Jaeger charts

$ helm repo add jaegertracing https://jaegertracing.github.io/helm-charts
"jaegertracing" has been added to your repositories

Grafana Loki charts

$ helm repo add loki https://grafana.github.io/loki/charts
"loki" has been added to your repositories

Update all repos just adding them doesn't make the charts on the repostiries available

$ helm repo up
Hang tight while we grab the latest from your chart repositories...
...Successfully got an update from the "jaegertracing" chart repository
...Successfully got an update from the "loki" chart repository
...Successfully got an update from the "stable" chart repository
