Deploy the haproxytech-haproxy-ingress helm chart on AWS EKS
TypeScriptTo deploy the
haproxytech-haproxy-ingress
Helm chart on AWS EKS using Pulumi, you will need to follow these steps:- Set up an EKS cluster using Pulumi's EKS package.
- Create an instance of the
awsx.ecr.Repository
to store your Docker images. - Deploy the
haproxytech-haproxy-ingress
Helm chart within the EKS cluster.
Below is the TypeScript program that demonstrates how to accomplish this task. We will use Pulumi's EKS package, which creates and manages the AWS EKS Kubernetes cluster resources, and then deploy the Helm chart using Pulumi's
helm.v3.Chart
resource from the@pulumi/kubernetes
package.First, let's explain the Pulumi resources we'll use:
eks.Cluster
: This is a high-level component that abstracts away the details of creating an EKS cluster. It automatically creates the necessary VPC, subnets, and NodeGroups.awsx.ecr.Repository
: This component resource is an abstraction over AWS's ECR Repository, allowing easier operations like building and pushing Docker images.helm.v3.Chart
: This resource is used to install Helm charts into a Kubernetes cluster managed by Pulumi. Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes, and it allows us to deploy pre-packaged applications easily.
Here's the full Pulumi program written in TypeScript:
import * as eks from "@pulumi/eks"; import * as awsx from "@pulumi/awsx"; import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes"; // Step 1: Create an EKS cluster const cluster = new eks.Cluster("my-cluster", { desiredCapacity: 2, minSize: 1, maxSize: 3, instanceType: "t2.medium", }); // Step 2: Create an ECR repository const repo = new awsx.ecr.Repository("my-repo"); // Step 3: Deploy the HAProxy Ingress Controller using Helm // Make sure the Helm chart is available in a Helm repository. const haproxyIngressChart = new k8s.helm.v3.Chart("haproxy-ingress", { chart: "haproxy-ingress", version: "1.0.0", // specify the version of the chart you want to deploy repositoryOpts: { repo: "https://haproxy-ingress.github.io/charts", // Helm chart repository URL }, // Use the EKS cluster created by Pulumi as the target for deploying the Helm chart kubeconfig: cluster.kubeconfig, }); // Export the cluster's kubeconfig and the repository URL export const kubeconfig = cluster.kubeconfig; export const repositoryUrl = repo.repositoryUrl;
This program performs the following actions:
- It initializes an EKS cluster with the desired number of nodes and a specified instance type.
- It creates an ECR repository that you could use for your Docker image storage.
- It installs the HAProxy Ingress Helm chart onto the EKS cluster from the HAProxy Helm chart repository.
To run this Pulumi program:
- Ensure you have the Pulumi CLI, AWS CLI, and
kubectl
installed and configured. - Save this code in a file named
index.ts
. - Run
pulumi up
in the same directory as yourindex.ts
file. This command will provision all the necessary infrastructure on AWS and deploy the HAProxy Ingress Controller.
Remember to check the Helm repository for the
haproxy-ingress
chart to ensure you have the correct chart name and repository URL and update the version if necessary.
