Install process

Shipa installs its services in the default namespace of your local clusters.

To check its progress, run kubectl get pods.

Once the dashboard-web-1-x service is running, Shipa is ready to be used!

With Shipa installed and running, the next step is to add route to the ngnix ingress. To do this, use the following command:

sudo route -n add -host -net 10.100.10.10/32 $(minikube ip )

Now, add the route to the Traefik ingress:

sudo route -n add -host -net 10.100.10.20/32 $(minikube ip )

Once the route to ngnix and Traefik have been added, next add your local Shipa instance as a target to your Shipa CLI:

shipa target-add -s shipa-v101 10.100.10.10
