Juju is a powerful and flexible tool that allows users to deploy, configure, manage and scale complex applications in any cloud environment. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to install Juju on Elementary OS, a popular Linux distribution.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
First, update the system and its packages:
sudo apt-get update
sudo ap-get upgrade
Juju is distributed as a snap package, so you'll need to install snapd, the package manager for snaps.
sudo apt install snapd
Install Juju using the command below:
sudo snap install juju --classic
The --classic option is required because Juju needs privileged access to your system.
Once the installation is complete, you can verify the Juju version by running the following command:
juju version
This should return the version number of Juju.
The Juju GUI provides a graphical interface for managing Juju models, applications and units.
sudo snap install juju-gui --channel=2.16/stable
You can access the GUI by opening your browser and navigating to http://localhost:6080.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Juju on your Elementary OS system. You can now start using Juju to manage complex applications in any cloud environment.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
