ilum 0.0.4.2

CLI installer and management tool for the Ilum Data Lakehouse platform

ilum CLI

Deploy and manage the Ilum Data Lakehouse platform on Kubernetes — from a single command.

What is ilum?

The ilum CLI wraps Helm and kubectl into a single tool purpose-built for the Ilum platform. It manages 32 modules with automatic dependency resolution, detects configuration drift between upgrades, and provides interactive wizards, health checks, and structured output — so you never have to hand-edit Helm values or chase dependency order again.

Quickstart

Install

Linux / macOS

curl -fsSL https://get.ilum.cloud/cli | bash

Windows (PowerShell)

irm https://get.ilum.cloud/cli/windows | iex

pip / pipx / uv

pip install ilum        # or: pipx install ilum / uv tool install ilum

Deploy

ilum quickstart

One command that:

• Checks prerequisites (Helm, kubectl, Docker)
• Detects an existing cluster or creates a local one (k3d/minikube/kind)
• Installs the Ilum platform with sensible defaults
• Shows deployment status when complete

Once running:

ilum status        # release info, pod readiness, enabled modules
ilum access open   # open the Ilum UI in your browser

Step-by-step alternative

Prefer full control? Use the interactive wizard instead:

ilum init       # configure cluster, select modules, set options
ilum install    # deploy with your configuration
