In this quickstart, you will deploy a sample Cloud Foundry app on an existing Kf cluster.

Before you begin

Complete the Install Kf guide.

Push an application

Prerequisites

The following are required to complete this section:

1. The kf CLI installed and in your path. See Install Kf CLI for instructions.

2. You have connected to the Kf cluster:

   gcloud container clusters get-credentials CLUSTER_NAME \
     --project=CLUSTER_PROJECT_ID \
     --zone=CLUSTER_LOCATION

3. The git CLI installed and in your path.

Prepare space

1. Create new space:

   kf create-space test-space

2. Target the space:

   kf target -s test-space

Push the Cloud Foundry test app

1. Clone the test-app repo.

   git clone https://github.com/cloudfoundry-samples/test-app go-test-app
   cd go-test-app

2. Push the app.

   Note: It will take a few minutes for the build to complete.

   kf push test-app

3. Get the application's URL.

   kf apps

4. Open the URL in your browser where you should see the app running.
