Trying to install eclipse che in Azure. Have created Kubernetes cluster and successfully crossed the DNS challenge. In the final step of installing eclipse che in kubernetes. Pre-requisite is chectl management tool. Could find document / steps of how to install chectl in Windows / Linux / Mac OS.

Not sure how to install the chectl tool inside the created kuberenetes cluster. How to install chectl tool using Cloud Shell ( Bash / Powershell) inside the Kubernetes cluster is the problem currently Im facing.

Any help / guidance would be great.

Thanking you in advance.

With Regards,
Nathan CSA.

    Hello @CSA Nathan ,

    You need not install chectl tool inside the created kuberenetes cluster. This chectl CLI utility needs to be installed after you connect to the azure subscription that is running using AKS cluster.

    This tool is just a client tool that can run from anywhere as documentation suggests it will read a valid config file for connection to a cluster so can be run from either Windows or Linux.

    In case if you are using windows, run this below command directly on PowerShell
    C:\Users> Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://www.eclipse.org/che/chectl/win/'))

    In case if you are using Linux Bash, follow the steps from here using-the-chectl-management-tool
