Installing Werf on Ubuntu Server Latest

Werf is an open-source tool designed to build and deploy applications via a container-based workflow. This tutorial will teach you how to install Werf on Ubuntu Server Latest using the command line interface.

Prerequisites

Before proceeding with the installation, make sure that:

Steps

  1. Update Ubuntu

    sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
    
  2. Install Docker

    Werf requires Docker to be installed in order to function properly. To install Docker on Ubuntu, you can follow the instructions provided in the official Docker documentation.

    sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg lsb-release
    curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
    echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
    sudo systemctl start docker
    sudo systemctl enable docker
    
  3. Install Werf

    wget -O werf https://dl.bintray.com/flant/werf/v1.*+/werf-linux-amd64-v1.*+ && \
    chmod a+x werf && \
    sudo mv werf /usr/local/bin/
    

    This command downloads the latest version of Werf and moves it into the /usr/local/bin/ directory, where it can be accessed system-wide.
