| sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
Then add Armory’s official repository:
echo "deb https://dl.bintray.com/armory/spinnaker-debians \
trusty spinnaker" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
Download the public PGP key:
curl -s -f https://bintray.com/user/downloadSubjectPublicKey?username=spinnaker\
| sudo apt-key add -
Add preferences file for apt to retrieve the correct packages:
curl -s -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/imosquera/spinnaker/master/etc/apt/preferences.d/0.61.0/spinnaker \
| sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/spinnaker
Add the Open JDK PPA:

sudo apt-get updateInstall Spinnaker and it’s dependencies:
apt-get install --allow-unauthenticated spinnakerStart Spinnaker!
sudo service spinnaker startGo to http://${PUBLIC_IP}:9000 on the host machine and you should see the Spinnaker screen greeting you. If you need to find your public IP of the box exec the following:
curl https://ifconfig.co/You should now see the Spinnaker greeting page
From here you’ll need to configure Spinnaker. There are a few steps you’ll need to complete:
- Set up Spinnaker
- We suggest that you use Elasticache from AWS or if you would like you can [set up Redis] (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-configure-redis-on-ubuntu-16-04) on your own.
- [Use Redis as the backend] for Front50 (http://www.spinnaker.io/docs/front50-cassandra-to-s3)
