Tipi is a tool developed by meienberger that makes it easier to manage multiple Docker stacks. These stacks can be orchestrated, scaled and monitored with ease. In this tutorial, we'll go through the process of installing Tipi on Alpine Linux Latest using the commands below.
Before starting, it is recommended to update the system packages to their latest version. You can do this by running the following command.
sudo apk update && sudo apk upgrade
Tipi is built on top of Docker, so you need to install Docker on your system. You can install Docker on Alpine Linux by running the following command.
sudo apk add docker
Next, you need to start and enable the Docker service to run automatically every time you start your system. You can do this by running the following commands.
sudo rc-service docker start
sudo rc-update add docker
Now you can install Tipi by running the following commands.
sudo apk add nodejs npm
sudo npm install -g tipi@latest
To check if Tipi has been successfully installed, you can run the following command which displays the version of Tipi on your system.
tipi -v
In this tutorial, we have gone through the steps required to install Tipi on Alpine Linux Latest. After installation, you can now manage multiple Docker stacks with ease using Tipi.
