Invenio versioning

[jwhite-home]

Is this helm chart expecting a maximum or minimum version of invenio?

Versioning:
Helm master pulled on sept 25, 2024
container version derived from registry.cern.ch/inveniosoftware/almalinux:latest including default latest invenio from pip (invenio-3.4.1)

Describe the bug

Installer pod outright fails:

jwhite@proxmox0:~/invenio$ kubectl logs install-init-l5vtw -n invenio
Usage: invenio [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
Try 'invenio --help' for help.

Error: No such command 'db'.

Steps to Reproduce

1. git clone https://github.com/inveniosoftware/helm-invenio.git; cd helm-invenio/charts/invenio
2. customize overrides.yml for site including local docker repo with above-mentioned versioning for container
3. helm install -f overrides.yaml -n invenio invenio .
4. check kubectl logs for installer pod

Expected behavior

installer pod completes without error

I'm not sure the init Job works. It's been there since before I did my pretty significant rewrites of the chart and I never used the init Job so maybe it's broken. I might look into it some day, unless someone fixes it before I do.

What I typically do exec into the pod and run the wipe_recreate.sh script. It's similar to what the init Job does.

WORKER_POD_NAME="$(kubectl get pods -l app=worker -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}')"
kubectl exec -it "${WORKER_POD_NAME:?}" -- bash -c 'yes | /opt/invenio/src/wipe_recreate.sh'

Thanks for that. Do you folks have a recommended base dockerfile for the web/worker/etc? Or even "what packages should I be jamming on top of registry.cern.ch/inveniosoftware/almalinux:latest ? I keep running into paths missing, etc.

jwhite@proxmox0:~/invenio$ kubectl -n invenio exec -it "${WORKER_POD_NAME:?}" -- bash -c 'yes | /opt/invenio/src/wipe_recreate.sh'
bash: line 1: /opt/invenio/src/wipe_recreate.sh: No such file or directory
command terminated with exit code 127

I have requested that they set a "known good image" by default, so it's easier to get started. I think it was delayed because v12 was not released. Now it is, so perhaps it's possible to revisit that topic.

When I've been testing things, I've used ghcr.io/inveniosoftware/demo-inveniordm/demo-inveniordm@sha256:2193abc2caec9bc599061d6a5874fd2d7d201f55d1673a545af0a0406690e8a4 I think that should work! Except maybe for this bug which (if it's still an issue) is resolved by removing the health probes for web.

@jwhitelbl we have set a default image for the chart nowadays, which I think goes a long way towards resolving this issue.

As soon as we get around to updating the README, we'll provide some notes on which versions of Invenio we support also. Currently, it's aimed at Invenio v12.
