6. Installing Skipper

This section will cover installing Skipper on your local machine as it is the easiest way to get started. Installing Skipper on other platforms will be covered separately.

wget http://repo.spring.io/milestone/org/springframework/cloud/spring-cloud-skipper-server/1.0.0.M1/spring-cloud-skipper-server-1.0.0.M1.jar

wget http://repo.spring.io/milestone/org/springframework/cloud/spring-cloud-skipper-shell/1.0.0.M1/spring-cloud-skipper-shell-1.0.0.M1.jar
java -jar spring-cloud-skipper-server-1.0.0.M1.jar


java -jar spring-cloud-skipper-shell-1.0.0.M1.jar

The default port that the server listens on is 7577. That is SKPR on a telephone keypad. :)

There is also a docker image hosted on dockerhub
