Cloud Foundry is an open-source cloud application platform for building, deploying, and running applications in the cloud. This tutorial will guide you on how to install Cloud Foundry on MXLinux Latest.
Before we start, there are some prerequisites that you need to have in order to install Cloud Foundry on your MXLinux Latest:
Cloud Foundry Command Line Interface (CLI) is a tool that allows you to interact with Cloud Foundry installations from the command line.
To install the CF CLI, follow the below command:
wget -q -O - https://packages.cloudfoundry.org/debian/cli.cloudfoundry.org.key | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://packages.cloudfoundry.org/debian stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cloudfoundry-cli.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install cf-cli
Bosh is a tool for release engineering, deployment, lifecycle management, and monitoring of distributed systems. To install the Bosh CLI, follow the below commands:
wget -q -O - https://s3.amazonaws.com/bosh-cli-artifacts/bosh-cli-6.4.4-linux-amd64 > /tmp/bosh
chmod 755 /tmp/bosh
sudo mv /tmp/bosh /usr/local/bin/bosh
Spiff is a lightweight tool for generating BOSH deployment manifests from a set of YAML templates. To install the Spiff CLI, follow the below commands:
wget -q -O - https://github.com/cloudfoundry-incubator/spiff/releases/download/v1.0.9/spiff_linux_amd64.zip > spiff_linux_amd64.zip
unzip spiff_linux_amd64.zip
sudo mv spiff /usr/local/bin
Now that you have installed the required tools, you are ready to install Cloud Foundry. To install Cloud Foundry, follow the below commands:
wget -q -O - https://packages.cloudfoundry.org/debian/cli.cloudfoundry.org.key | sudo apt-key add -

sudo apt update
sudo apt install cloudfoundry-client
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Cloud Foundry on MXLinux Latest. Now you can start building, deploying, and running your applications in the cloud.
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!
