Deploy the atlassian-jira helm chart on Opensshift

Question

Pulumi · Accepted Answer

To deploy the Atlassian JIRA Helm chart on OpenShift using Pulumi, you can use the `kubernetes.helm.sh/v3.Chart` class from the Pulumi Kubernetes provider. This class allows you to deploy resources on Kubernetes clusters using Helm charts.

Below is a step-by-step guide that walks you through the process of deploying Atlassian JIRA on OpenShift using Pulumi in TypeScript:

### Step by Step Guide

1. **Install Pulumi CLI**: Make sure you have the Pulumi CLI installed. You can find the installation instructions [here](https://www.pulumi.com/docs/get-started/install/).
   
2. **Configure OpenShift**: Before running the Pulumi program, ensure that you have access to your OpenShift cluster and that `kubectl` is correctly configured to communicate with it.

3. **Set Up New Pulumi Project**: Create a new Pulumi project using `pulumi new` with the Kubernetes TypeScript template.

4. **Add Kubernetes Package**: You'll need the Pulumi Kubernetes package, which you can add to your project by running `npm install @pulumi/kubernetes` or adding it to your `package.json` file.

5. **Write Pulumi Program**: The program below defines a Helm chart resource that points to the Atlassian JIRA Helm chart.

6. **Deploy**: Run `pulumi up` to deploy the Helm chart to your OpenShift cluster.

Here's how you would write the Pulumi program in TypeScript:

```typescript
import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes";

// Create an instance of the Helm chart for Atlassian JIRA.
// Note: You must replace 'CHART_VERSION' with the actual version number of the Atlassian JIRA Helm chart.
const jiraChart = new k8s.helm.v3.Chart("atlassian-jira", {
  chart: "jira",
  version: "CHART_VERSION", // specify the chart version
  fetchOpts: {
    repo: "https://atlassian.github.io/data-center-helm-charts", // Helm chart repository for Atlassian products
  },
  // Values in this object override the default chart values.
  values: {
    // Specify any values required for the JIRA Helm chart here.
    // For example, you can specify the number of replicas, resources, or any configuration specific to the chart.
    // See the chart's values.yaml for a full list of configurable options.
  },
  namespace: "default", // specify the namespace where JIRA should be installed (adjust if needed)
}, {
  // Custom resource options (if needed)
});

// Export any important information about the deployment, such as the chart's status or any computed endpoints.
export const jiraStatus = jiraChart.status;
```

Remember to replace `CHART_VERSION` with the version number of the Atlassian JIRA Helm chart you intend to deploy. Also, adjust the `values` object with the appropriate values for your specific JIRA deployment, such as resource limits or other configurations that you need to override from the default chart.

This program assumes that you have configured your Pulumi environment to target your OpenShift cluster and that you have the required permissions to deploy Helm charts to it. After running this program with Pulumi, the specified version of Atlassian JIRA should be deployed within your OpenShift cluster.

If you encounter any issues, make sure that your Helm repository URL is correct, you have specified a valid chart version, your OpenShift cluster is reachable, and you have the right permissions set up.
