Deploy the keycloak-setup helm chart on AWS EKS
TypeScriptTo deploy the
keycloak-setup
Helm chart on AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), we will go through the process step by step. The process involves setting up an EKS cluster and then deploying the Helm chart onto it.First, we'll need to create an EKS cluster. The EKS cluster will be the Kubernetes environment where your Keycloak instance will run. Pulumi's EKS package simplifies the creation of an EKS cluster.
Once the EKS cluster is in place, we'll use the
kubernetes
package from Pulumi to deploy thekeycloak-setup
Helm chart to it. You need to make sure you have the right Helm chart available and know the necessary configuration parameters for your Keycloak setup.Here's an example of how you might write this Pulumi program in TypeScript:
import * as eks from "@pulumi/eks"; import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes"; // Create an EKS cluster with the desired settings const cluster = new eks.Cluster("my-cluster", { // Specify the desired version of Kubernetes for your EKS cluster here version: "1.21", // Define other parameters like the desired node size, min/max scaling size, etc. instanceType: "t2.medium", desiredCapacity: 2, minSize: 1, maxSize: 3, }); // Export the cluster's kubeconfig. export const kubeconfig = cluster.kubeconfig; // Create a Kubernetes provider instance using the cluster's kubeconfig const provider = new k8s.Provider("k8s-provider", { kubeconfig: cluster.kubeconfig, }); // Deploy the keycloak-setup Helm chart to the EKS cluster const keycloakChart = new k8s.helm.v3.Chart("keycloak-setup", { chart: "keycloak", version: "11.0.1", // Define the chart version; ensure it's a valid Keycloak chart version fetchOpts: { repo: "https://codecentric.github.io/helm-charts", // Set the Helm chart repository }, // You can provide additional configuration for Keycloak here using the 'values' property values: { // Custom values to configure Keycloak }, }, { provider }); // Export the endpoint of the Keycloak instance export const keycloakEndpoint = keycloakChart.getResourceProperty("v1/Service", "keycloak-setup-keycloak-http", "status").apply(s => `http://${s.loadBalancer.ingress[0].hostname}`);
In this program, we are using the
@pulumi/eks
package to create a cluster. We set properties such asversion
,instanceType
,desiredCapacity
,minSize
, andmaxSize
to configure our cluster. You can modify these values according to your requirements. Be sure to check Pulumi EKS Cluster documentation for additional configurations you might need.After we've set up the cluster, we set up a
Provider
using the kubeconfig generated by the cluster, which allows Pulumi to communicate with our cluster.The
keycloak-setup
Helm chart is then deployed using Pulumi'sChart
resource from the@pulumi/kubernetes
package, which is a way to deploy packaged applications to Kubernetes. You need to specify the chart version you wish to install and also the Helm repository URL where the chart can be found. Here, thevalues
property would be a place where you can put the configuration for your Keycloak setup like a database configuration, replicas, resource requirements, etc. Check the Helm chart's documentation for the supported values.Finally, we export the
kubeconfig
required to manage the Kubernetes cluster withkubectl
and the Keycloak endpoint so that you can access the Keycloak UI from a web browser.You'll need to install the Pulumi CLI, set up your AWS credentials, and then run
pulumi up
to deploy this code to AWS.Remember, deploying infrastructure like an EKS cluster results in actual cloud resources being created and managed by AWS, which may incur costs. Always review the execution plan that
pulumi up
provides before confirming the deployment to understand what actions Pulumi will take and what resources will be created.
