move keycloakx helm-chart to upstream keycloak project?

[jkleinlercher]

Hey,

it seems this keycloakx helm chart is quite popular! Used by vshn, also referenced in other documentations and blogs ... what do you think about bringing this chart upsream to https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak and lets maintain it from a broader community and keep it up-do-date with the current keycloak versions?

@jkleinlercher I recommend going ahead and doing it by either moving it or forking it. The only other popular chart for Keycloak is Bitnami's and that is going away on Aug 28.

Currently the keycloak maintainers would prefer to provide a helm chart for the keycloak operator, see keycloak/keycloak#37636

However, maybe on the long-term both options are part of the official keycloak project

I have cloned this one and create a helm chart that includes as deps bitnami/postgresqsl :)
Because for me this chart works almost flawless (8 realms/AzureAD as identity provider, ~20 apps registered )

bu that would mean it will not work anymore in two weeks when bitnami removes their images? A helm chart including a postgres image that is not from Bitnami would probably be better.

As far as I know, only certain charts/images will be migrated to bitnami premium... postresql seems to be still on "free" support.
However I have cloned also the postgress charts, but , I don't have som uch spare time, to rebuild the container from deb to redhat ubi :)

Change bitnami to bitnamilegacy in the image path, and the chart will technically still work. It just won't ever get a new version of postgres after that.

There are other better options. The Percona postgres chart works great.

Regarding Bitnami:

The KeycloakX chart is not dependent on Bitnami. There is only one example on how to use the Bitnami Postgres as database for our chart. However, you can use any database, not just Bitnami. We should revise this example in the near future. But as I said, the KeycloakX chart runs fine without Bitnami.

Our old keycloak chart, which still provides the old Wildfly version, is affected by/dependent on Bitnami. We have not maintained this for a long time and should deprecate it. By now, everyone should have switched to KeycloakX.

After all, to resume, this chart is doing its job flawless :)

no complains form users ( ~300 now sync from Azure, no delays for logins (~36 apps that are connected to keycloak)
