NDS Labs API/CLI requirements

Starting the API server

eval $(docker run --rm -t ndslabs/system-shell usage docker)
git clone https://github.com/craig-willis/ndslabs-startup
cd ndslabs-startup
./kube-up.sh
./ndslabs-up.sh

...

If needed, download the latest

...

copy of

...

ndslabsctl

...

- wget

- https://github.com/nds-org/ndslabs/releases/

...

- download/v1.0-alpha

...

If the API server is running under docker or Kubernetes, you will need to specify the server address. This can be done on the commandline using the --server flag or by creating a .ndslabsctl.yaml file in your home directory. For example:

APISERVER=`kubectl describe svc ndslabs-apiserver | grep ^IP | awk '{print $2}'`

...

- /ndslabsctl-linux-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/ndslabsctl
- chmod +x ndslabsctl
If testing a new version of API server
- vi /usr/local/lib/ndslabs/apiserver
- Change latest -> test
- docker rmi ndslabs/apiserver:test
ndslabs-up.sh
"ndslabsctl list projects" to confirm things are working

Global preconditions
