Getting started
In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through the process of deploying the SMTP Integrator charm. We’ll be deploying the charm on top of Kubernetes although a machine substrate could also be used.
Requirements
You will need:
- A laptop or desktop running Ubuntu (or you can use a VM).
- Juju and Microk8s installed.
Deploy this charm
The charm will the deployed in a new model named smtp-tutorial:
# Add the model
juju add-model smtp-tutorial
# Deploy the charm
juju deploy smtp-integrator
# Provide the mandatory configurations
juju config smtp-integrator host=smtp.example.com
By running juju status --relations the current state of the deployment can be queried, with the charm eventually reaching Active state:
Model Controller Cloud/Region Version SLA Timestamp
smtp-tutorial microk8s-localhost microk8s/localhost 3.1.6 unsupported 12:54:25+02:00
App Version Status Scale Charm Channel Rev Address Exposed Message
smtp-integrator active 1 smtp-integrator 0 10.152.183.65 no
Unit Workload Agent Address Ports Message

Run kubectl get pods -n smtp-tutorial to see the pods that are being created by the charms:
