The fastest way to get KubeOne is to use our installation script:
curl -sfL https://get.kubeone.io | sh
The installation script downloads the release archive from GitHub, installs
the KubeOne binary in your /usr/local/bin directory and unpacks the example
Terraform configs in your current working directory. If you want to inspect the
script before running it, you can use a command such as
curl -sfL https://get.kubeone.io | less or check it on GitHub.
You can download the binary from the GitHub Releases.
Find the archive for your operating system and architecture, and download it
or grab the URL and use it with wget or curl.
Version: version of KubeOne
Operating system: linux or darwin for macOS
curl -LO https://github.com/kubermatic/kubeone/releases/download/v<version>/kubeone_<version>_<operating_system>_amd64.zip
Extract the archive. On Linux and macOS, you can use unzip.
unzip kubeone_<version>_<operating_system>_amd64.zip -d kubeone_<version>_<operating_system>_amd64
Move the kubeone binary to your $PATH, so you can easily invoke it from
your terminal.
sudo mv kubeone_<version>_<operating_system>_amd64/kubeone /usr/local/bin
For a quick way to install the latest version of KubeOne, use the following commands:
OS=$(uname)
VERSION=$(curl -w '%{url_effective}' -I -L -s -S https://github.com/kubermatic/kubeone/releases/latest -o /dev/null | sed -e 's|.*/v||')
curl -LO "https://github.com/kubermatic/kubeone/releases/download/v${VERSION}/kubeone_${VERSION}_${OS}_amd64.zip"
unzip kubeone_${VERSION}_${OS}_amd64.zip -d kubeone_${VERSION}_${OS}_amd64
sudo mv kubeone_${VERSION}_${OS}_amd64/kubeone /usr/local/bin
Support for packages managers is still work in progress. For more details about the progress follow the issue #471
KubeOne can be found in the official Arch Linux repositories.
Use pacman or your preferred package manager to install it.
pacman -S kubeone
If you have the Go toolchain configured, you can use go get to obtain KubeOne.
To get the latest stable release:
GO111MODULE=on go get k8c.io/kubeone@main
To get other releases, such as alpha, beta, and RC releases, you can provide a
tag to the go get command. Check out the GitHub Releases for
the list of available tags.
GO111MODULE=on go get k8c.io/kubeone@<insert-tag>
For releases before v1.0.0-rc.1, you have to use the following go get
command.
GO111MODULE=on go get github.com/kubermatic/kubeone@<insert-tag>
If you already have KubeOne repository cloned, you can use make
to install it.
make install
While running of the main branch is a great way to peak at and test the new features before they are released, note that main branch can break at any time or may contain bugs. Official releases are considered stable and recommended for the production usage.
KubeOne comes with commands for generating scripts for the shell completion and for the documentation in format of man pages and more.
To active completion for your current session, run the following command.
source <(kubeone completion bash)
To active completion permanently, add the command to your ~/.bashrc file.

To active completion for your current session, run the following command.
source <(kubeone completion zsh)
To active completion permanently, add the command to your ~/.zshrc file.
