Tsuru is an open-source Platform as a Service (PaaS) that allows you to deploy and manage your applications in a scalable and flexible way. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Tsuru on Elementary OS Latest.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, you need to have the following prerequisites:

Step 1: Installing dependencies

The first step is to install the required dependencies needed for Tsuru to function correctly. Run the following commands in your terminal.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg-agent software-properties-common

Next, add the Docker GPG key to your system using the following command.

curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -

Then add the Docker repository to your system.

sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"

Finally, update your package list and install Docker using the following commands.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

Step 2: Installing Tsuru

To install Tsuru, we need to add the Tsuru repository to our system.

curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/tsuru/main/script.deb.sh | sudo bash

Once the repository is installed, we can now install Tsuru and its command-line tool using the following commands.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install tsuru tsuru-client

Step 3: Configuring Tsuru

After installation, you need to configure Tsuru by running the following commands.

sudo tsuru install
sudo tsuru install-plugin docker

The first command sets up the Tsuru environment configuration files, and the second command installs the Docker plugin.

Step 4: Testing Tsuru

To test that Tsuru is installed correctly, you can run the following commands.

tsuru version
tsuru target-add default http://localhost:8080
tsuru app-list

The first command shows the Tsuru version, the second command sets up the default Tsuru target as localhost using port 8080, and the last command lists all the applications on Tsuru.
