Deploy the aws-container-insight-fluent-bit helm chart on Kubernetes
TypeScriptTo deploy the
aws-container-insight-fluent-bit
Helm chart on a Kubernetes cluster using Pulumi, you can use theChart
resource from the@pulumi/kubernetes
package. This resource allows you to deploy Helm charts in a similar way you would with thehelm
CLI tool. Below, I'll explain the steps and provide you with a TypeScript program that completes this task.Before you proceed, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
- Pulumi CLI installed and set up.
- Access to a Kubernetes cluster and the
kubeconfig
file that provides access to the cluster. - The
@pulumi/pulumi
and@pulumi/kubernetes
packages installed in your project.
Now, let's break down the steps involved in the deployment process:
- Import necessary Pulumi libraries to interact with Kubernetes.
- Instantiate a
Chart
resource that points to theaws-container-insight-fluent-bit
Helm chart. - Specify the namespace where you would like the chart to be deployed, along with any other required configurations.
Here is the TypeScript program that accomplishes the deployment:
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi"; import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes"; // Create a new Helm chart instance for aws-container-insight-fluent-bit. const fluentBitChart = new k8s.helm.v3.Chart("aws-fluent-bit", { // Specify the chart repository and name. // Assuming aws-container-insight-fluent-bit is available in the 'stable' Helm repo. // Replace with the correct repo URL and chart name as necessary. chart: "aws-container-insight-fluent-bit", version: "X.Y.Z", // Specify the chart version you want to deploy. fetchOpts: { repo: "https://aws.github.io/eks-charts" // The repository URL where the chart is hosted. }, // If additional custom values are needed, specify them in the 'values' field // as an object. The keys and values here should represent the structure of the // Helm values file. Here's an example of configuring the log level. values: { logLevel: "info" }, // You can choose the namespace where the chart should be deployed. namespace: "kube-system" // If required, you can also perform transformations on the resources // that the Helm chart generates. // transformations: [ // (resource) => { // // Do transformations here if needed. // } // ] }, { provider: /* insert your k8s provider if necessary */ }); // Export the resources created by the chart for easy access. // This could be the service endpoint or any other important information. export const fluentBitResources = fluentBitChart.resources;
Please replace
"X.Y.Z"
with the actual version of theaws-container-insight-fluent-bit
Helm chart you intend to deploy.This program defines a Pulumi project that uses the
Chart
resource to deploy theaws-container-insight-fluent-bit
Helm chart to the specified namespace in your Kubernetes cluster. Modify thevalues
field with any custom values you would like to apply to the deployment. You can find these in the chart'svalues.yaml
file or the corresponding Helm chart documentation.Once the code is written, you can use the Pulumi CLI to preview (
pulumi preview
) and apply (pulumi up
) your infrastructure changes.Please note that for this deployment to work, you must have the appropriate role-based access control (RBAC) permissions set up in your Kubernetes cluster, as the
aws-container-insight-fluent-bit
Helm chart might create various Kubernetes resources that require elevated privileges.
