I have quite a few applications that are already containerized and managed by Docker Compose. Maintaining the application-level Docker Compose YAML files is a minor task. However, there are a few small pieces of the puzzle that still require manual updates or upgrades from time to time. So, I’ve made the decision to migrate, and this is my first blog post documenting the process.

Install k3s

        
curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -s - --no-deploy=traefik --default-local-storage-path=/opt/k3s
# setup kubectl autocompletion
echo "source <(kubectl completion bash)" >> ~/.bashrc
