Chapter 18. Creating a site on local systems using YAML

Create a site CR YAML file named my-site.yaml in an empty directory, for example, local:

apiVersion: skupper.io/v2alpha1
kind: Site
metadata:
  name: my-site

apiVersion: skupper.io/v2alpha1
kind: Site
metadata:
  name: my-site

This YAML creates a site named my-site in the default namespace.

Create the site:

skupper system setup --path ./local

skupper system setup --path ./local

Skupper attempts to process any files in the local directory. Typically, you create all resources you require for a site before running skupper system setup.

Check the status of the site:

skupper site status

skupper site status

You might need to issue the command multiple times before the site is ready:

NAME    STATUS  MESSAGE
default Ready   OK

NAME    STATUS  MESSAGE
default Ready   OK

You can now link this site to another site to create an application network.
