1) Install the MinIO Operator via Krew Plugin

Run the following commands to install the MinIO Operator and Plugin using the Kubernetes krew plugin manager:

kubectl krew update
kubectl krew install minio

See the krew installation documentation for instructions on installing krew.

Run the following command to verify installation of the plugin:

kubectl minio version

As an alternative to krew, you can download the kubectl-minio plugin from the Operator Releases Page. Download the kubectl-minio package appropriate for your operating system and extract the contents as kubectl-minio. Set the kubectl-minio binary to be executable (e.g. chmod +x) and place it in your system PATH.

For example, the following code downloads the latest stable version of the MinIO Kubernetes Plugin and installs it to the system $PATH. The example assumes a Linux operating system:

wget -qO- https://github.com/minio/operator/releases/latest/download/kubectl-minio_linux_amd64_v1.zip | sudo bsdtar -xvf- -C /usr/local/bin
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/kubectl-minio

Run the following command to verify installation of the plugin:

kubectl minio version

Run the following command to initialize the Operator:

kubectl minio init

Run the following command to verify the status of the Operator:

kubectl get pods -n minio-operator

The output resembles the following:

NAME                              READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
console-6b6cf8946c-9cj25          1/1     Running   0          99s
minio-operator-69fd675557-lsrqg   1/1     Running   0          99s

The console-* pod runs the MinIO Operator Console, a graphical user interface for creating and managing MinIO Tenants.

The minio-operator-* pod runs the MinIO Operator itself.

2) Access the Operator Console

Run the following command to create a local proxy to the MinIO Operator Console:

kubectl minio proxy -n minio-operator

The output resembles the following:

kubectl minio proxy
