DSS Helm Chart

This Helm Chart deploys the DSS and datastore (CockroachDB or Yugabyte) kubernetes resources.

Requirements

  1. A Kubernetes cluster should be running and you should be properly authenticated. Requirements and instructions to create a new Kubernetes cluster can be found here.
  2. Create the certificates and apply them to the cluster using the instructions of section 6 and 7
  3. Install Helm version 3.11.3 or higher

Usage

  1. Copy values.example.yaml to values.dev.yaml and edit it. In particular, the key dss.image must be set manually. See values.schema.json for schema definition. The root key cockroachdb supports all values supported by the cockroachdb Chart). Note that values.yaml contains the default values and are always passed to helm.
  2. Validate the configuration: helm lint -f values.dev.yaml .
  3. Set a RELEASE_NAME to dss: export RELEASE_NAME=dss It is temporarily the only release name possible.
  4. Set the kube client context of your system, example: export KUBE_CONTEXT=gke_interuss-deploy-example_europe-west6-a_dss-dev-w6
  5. Run helm dep update --kube-context=$KUBE_CONTEXT
  6. Install the chart: helm install --kube-context=$KUBE_CONTEXT -f values.dev.yaml $RELEASE_NAME .

Update the chart

When changing the values in values.dev.yaml, values.yaml, the templates or upgrading the helm chart dependencies, changes can be applied to the cluster using the following command:

  1. Run helm upgrade --kube-context=$KUBE_CONTEXT -f values.dev.yaml $RELEASE_NAME .
