The Qlik Sense installations and operations CLI provides capabilities for installing the Qlik Sense on Kubernetes packaging and performing operations on qliksense.

Getting started

Download the appropriate executable for your platform from the releases page. When used, the CLI will check to see if porter is installed, if not, will download and install it. Once done, you can find porter through echo $HOME/.porter on Linux and MacOS and in $Env:USERPROFILE\.porter on Windows. You can also install it in advance, release > 0.22.1-beta.1 is required.

To make sure everything is order, you can fetch the Qlik Sense bundle version and corresponding image list from:

qliksense about --tag qlik/qliksense-cnab-bundle:latest

Running Preflight checks

You can run preflight checks to ensure that the cluster is in a healthy state before installing Qliksense.

qliksense preflight -c <credential_name>

The above command runs the checks in the default namespace. If you want to specify the namespace to run preflight checks on:

qliksense preflight --param namespace=<value> -c <credential_name>

Qliksense Packaging

Packaging of Qlik Sense on Kubernetes is done through a Porter definition in the Qlik Sense on Kubernetes configuration repository, the resulting bundle published on DockerHub as a Cloud Natvie Application Bundle called qliksense-cnab-bundle.

Versioning

A version of qliksense-cnab-bundle is published corresponding to an edge release. To get the latest edge release simply specify qliksense-cnab-bundle:latest
