+# This shell will create a openyurt cluster locally with kind. The yurt-tunnel will be

+#
+# It uses the following env variables:
+# REGION
+# Affect the GOPROXY. You can set it to "cn" to use GOPROXY="https://goproxy.cn".
+# Default value is "us", which means using GOPROXY="https://goproxy.io"
+# The default value is "us".
+#
+# KIND_KUBECONFIG
+# KIND_KUBECONFIG represents the path to store the kubeconfig file of the cluster
+# which is created by this shell. The default value is "$HOME/.kube/config"
+#
+# NODES_NUM
+# NODES_NUM represents the number of nodes to be included in the new-created cluster.
+# There are one control-plane node and NODES_NUM-1 worker nodes. Thus, NODES_NUM must
+# be greater than 2. The default value is 2.
+#
+# KUBERNETESVERSION
+# It declares the kubernetes version the cluster will use. The format is "1.XX". 
+# Now only 1.18, 1.19 and 1.20 are supported. The default value is 1.20
+#
+# TIMEOUT
+# TIMEOUT represents the time to wait for the kind control-plane, yurt-tunnel and
+# yurt-server to be ready. If it is not ready after the duration, the shell will exit.
+# The default value is 120s.
+#
+# YURTTUNNEL
+# If set YURTTUNNEL=disable, the yurt-tunnel-agent and yurt-tunnel-server will not be
+# deployed in the openyurt cluster.
