Running minikube using hyperkit or xhyve on mac Mojave

Install kubectl
---------------
curl -LO curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.10.0/bin/darwin/amd64/kubectl
chmod +x ./kubectl
sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl


Install minikube
---------------
$ curl -Lo minikube https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/v0.35.0/minikube-darwin-amd64 && chmod +x minikube && sudo mv minikube /usr/local/bin/

Install virtulization driver
----------------------------
brew install xhyve
brew install docker-machine-driver-xhyve
sudo chown root:wheel /usr/local/opt/docker-machine-driver-xhyve/bin/docker-machine-driver-xhyve
sudo chmod u+s /usr/local/opt/docker-machine-driver-xhyve/bin/docker-machine-driver-xhyve

Start minikube
--------------
minikube start --vm-driver=xhyve (ideally this should work here, for me it was already installed so had to first remove the config)
rm -rf $HOME/.minikube
minikube start --vm-driver=xhyve

Verification :

kubectl run hello-minikube --image=gcr.io/google_containers/echoserver:1.4 --port=8080
kubectl expose deployment hello-minikube --type=NodePort
kubectl get pod  [If kubectl version is 1.11 this step fails]

Delete existing vm
------------------

minikube delete -p minikube

Update:

Was able to run minikube with hyperkit, by deleting the existing xhyve vm and starting minikube with hyperkit.

1. minikube delete -p minikube
2. brew tap markeissler/hyperkit 
3. brew install hyperkit
4. minikube start --vm-driver hyperkit.
5. minikube dashboard (get the dashboard opened in a browser)
