App Infrastructure

< Home

The infrastructure has to be deployed before deploying any release-objects.

This readme assumes that your CLI's current directory is .k8s/infrastructure.

For now, this readme also assumes that you have nginx-ingress and cert-manager installed on your cluster. I wrote a little how-to on how to do this (it is easy peasy).

Namespaces

Change the namespaces.yml file to reflect the desired namespace.

Install the namespace

First change the <bracketed values> by your own.

Then deploy the namespace

kubectl apply -f ./namespaces.yml

Don't forget to switch the context to that namespace within kubectl

$ kubectl config set-context $(kubectl config current-context) --namespace=<namespace-name>
# Validate it
$ kubectl config view | grep namespace:

Secrets

The following secrets are required by this application

mysql-pass

password=<mysql root password>

kubectl create secret generic mysql-pass --from-literal=password=<SomeSecurePassword>

Ingress

First change the ingress resource to reflect your domain name. (look for the <bracketed values>)

Then deploy the ingress resource:

$ kubectl apply -f ./ingress.yml

It will create a Certificate resource which in turn will create TLS secret. Note that creating them yourself may block the ingress controller from doing so.

Check if the certificate was created:

$ kubectl describe ingress ingress

It should show Successfully created Certificate "<example-com-certificate>" as the last event.

Check if the certificate resource created the order, and whether it has been validated yet:

$ kubectl describe certificate <example-com-certificate>

Prepare deployments

Go the to .k8s/release folder and change the <bracketed values> with your own.
