How to Install Tsuru on Windows 11

Tsuru is an open-source Platform as a Service (PaaS) that makes it easier to deploy and manage applications. It provides an easy-to-use command line interface that allows developers to deploy their apps without worrying about infrastructure management. In this tutorial, we will be installing Tsuru on Windows 11.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have:

• A Windows 11 machine with administrative privileges
• The Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) enabled
• Ubuntu installed on WSL

Step 1: Install Docker Desktop

Tsuru uses Docker for containerization. So, we need to install Docker Desktop on our Windows 11 machine.

1. Go to https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop and download and install Docker Desktop for Windows 11.

2. Once the installation is complete, open Docker Desktop and make sure it's running.

Step 2: Install Tsuru CLI

Next, we need to install the Tsuru command-line interface (CLI). This will allow us to interact with Tsuru from the terminal.

To install the Tsuru CLI, open the WSL terminal and run the following commands:

1. Add the Tsuru repository to your system's list of package sources:

$ curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/tsuru/stable/script.deb.sh | sudo bash

2. Install the Tsuru CLI:

$ sudo apt-get install tsuru-client

3. Verify that the Tsuru CLI is installed by running the following command:

$ tsuru version

Step 3: Set Up Tsuru

Now we need to set up Tsuru. We will need to create a Tsuru user account, and then add any SSH keys we want to use to authenticate with Tsuru.

1. Create a Tsuru account by running the following command:

$ tsuru target-add default https://tsuru.yourdomain.com
$ tsuru login

2. In the login process, you will be asked to provide your email address and password for Tsuru. Once you have done that, you can verify your login by running the following command:

$ tsuru user-info

3. Now we need to add our SSH key to Tsuru. First, we need to generate an SSH key by running the following command:

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[email protected]"

4. Copy the public key to the clipboard:

$ cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | clip.exe

5. Now go to the Tsuru web interface and navigate to Settings > SSH Keys. Click on "Add a key" and paste your public key in the provided field.

Step 4: Deploy Your First App

Now we're ready to deploy our first app to Tsuru!

1. Create a new directory for your app and navigate to it:

$ mkdir myapp
$ cd myapp

2. Create a new Flask app by running the following command:

$ flask init myapp

3. Add a new Git remote for Tsuru and push your app:

$ git remote add tsuru [email protected]:myapp.git
$ git push tsuru master

4. Tsuru will build and deploy your app. You can view its status by running the following command:

$ tsuru app-status myapp

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Tsuru and deployed your first app.
