CluedIn Setup

deployment installation setup azure

Install PowerShell 7 locally.
Install Azure CLI for the specific OS you are using (Windows, MacOS or Linux)
Create a folder where you can store the different tools & files you will need for the installation, for example C:\Users\$env:username\AzureTools, where $env:username contains your user name.
- Open a PowerShell 7 session
- Create a new folder using the following command:
```
mkdir C:\Users\$env:username\AzureTools
```
  Navigate to the new folder
```
cd C:\Users\$env:username\AzureTools
```
- Assign the path of your folder to a new Environment Variable, that you can name AzureTools for example:
```
$env:AzureTools = "C:\Users\$env:username\AzureTools"
```
- Add the newly created variable to your machine’s PATH variable:
```
$env:PATH += ";C:\Users\$env:username\AzureTools"
```
  Moving forwards, make sure you are inside the newly created folder.
Install kubectl locally: Windows, MacOS or Linux.
- Example for Windows:
  - In your PowerShell session, run the following commands one by one:
    Command to install kubectl.exe
    curl -LO "https://dl.k8s.io/release/v1.22.0/bin/windows/amd64/kubectl.exe"
    Command to install the kubectl Checksum file
    curl -LO "https://dl.k8s.io/v1.22.0/bin/windows/amd64/kubectl.exe.sha256"
    Command to check the validity of the installation (should return True)
    $($(CertUtil -hashfile .\kubectl.exe SHA256)[1] -replace " ", "") -eq $(type .\kubectl.exe.sha256)
    Command to check the installed version
    kubectl version --client
    The results should look like the following Make sure kubectl is added to your PATH through the AzureTools folder
    $env:PATH -split ';'
Install Helm
- Choose the latest release that suits your OS here
- Download the appropriate zip, for example: helm-vX.Y.Z-windows-amd64.zip for Windows x64
- Extract the content on the zip into your AzureTools folder
After performing the above steps, your Azure Folder should look like the following:
Check your Azure access & permissions:
- You must be added as a user in your company’s Azure tenant
- You must have the Contributor role on the Azure Subscription you will be using for the installation.
Provision a hostname for the CluedIn application, for example: cluedin-dev.companyName.com, this will be the hostname used in the remainder of the installation.
Purchase or generate an SSL certificate bound to *.hostname, for example: *.cluedin-dev.companyName.com. If you choose not to use HTTPS immediately (despite its importance, especially for production environments), you can reconfigure CluedIn later to use HTTPS.
You own a Docker Hub account, for which you requested access to CluedIn’s Docker images. Please contact support@cluedin.com if you have not gotten the access enabled yet.
