Quick Start with kinD

Manage your kinD clusters with Meshery. Deploy Meshery in your kinD cluster.

Available Deployment Methods

Follow the steps below to install Meshery in your kinD cluster.

Read through the following considerations prior to deploying Meshery on kinD.

Start the kinD, if not started using the following command:

`kind create cluster`

Check up on your kinD cluster :

`kind get clusters`

Verify your kubeconfig’s current context.

`kubectl config current-context`

If you are using port-forwarding, please refer to the port-forwarding guide for detailed instructions.
Customize your Meshery Provider Callback URL. Meshery Server supports customizing authentication flow callback URL, which can be configured in the following way:

`$ MESHERY_SERVER_CALLBACK_URL=https://custom-host mesheryctl system start`

Meshery should now be running in your kinD cluster and Meshery UI should be accessible at the INTERNAL IP of meshery service.

Once kinD cluster is configured as current cluster-context, execute the below command.

Before executing the below command, go to ~/.meshery/config.yaml and ensure that current platform is set to kubernetes.

`$ mesheryctl system start`

If you encounter any authentication issues, you can use mesheryctl system login. For more information, click here to learn more.
