FLAP is a cloud-native platform that can be used to deploy and manage containerized applications. Installing FLAP on Fedora CoreOS Latest is a relatively straightforward process. The following tutorial will outline the steps required to get FLAP up and running on your system.
Before we begin, ensure you meet the following prerequisites:
The first step is to download the FLAP binary. You can do this by navigating to the FLAP project page at https://www.flap.cloud and selecting the appropriate download link for your operating system. For Fedora CoreOS Latest, choose the Linux option.
Once the download is complete, extract the contents of the archive to a folder of your choice.
FLAP is built on top of Kubernetes, so you will need to have a functioning Kubernetes cluster set up before you can use FLAP.
If you do not already have a Kubernetes cluster, the easiest way to get started is to use the kubeadm tool. Follow the instructions for your particular environment to create a new cluster.
Once you have a functioning cluster, you will need to install the Kubernetes command-line tool, kubectl. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo dnf install kubernetes-client
With the Kubernetes cluster set up, the next step is to install the FLAP operator. This is the component that will control the deployment and management of your application.
To install the FLAP operator, navigate to the folder where you extracted the FLAP binary and run the following command:
kubectl apply -f deploy/crds/flap_v1alpha1_flap_crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/namespace.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/service_account.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/role.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/role_binding.yaml
kubectl apply -f deploy/operator.yaml
This will create the necessary Kubernetes resources for the FLAP operator.
Now that the FLAP operator is installed, you can create your first FLAP instance.
To do this, navigate to the folder where you extracted the FLAP binary and run the following command:
kubectl apply -f examples/flap.yaml
This will create a new instance of FLAP in your Kubernetes cluster.
To verify that FLAP is running correctly, you can check the logs for the FLAP operator pod. You can do this by running the following command:
kubectl logs -n flap-system deploy/flux-1
If everything is working correctly, you should see a log output indicating that the FLAP instance has started.
That's it! You have now successfully installed FLAP on Fedora CoreOS Latest. With FLAP, you can now deploy and manage containerized applications with ease.
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!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
