Deploy the tekton-operator helm chart on Opensshift
TypeScriptTo deploy the tekton-operator Helm chart on OpenShift using Pulumi, you need to follow these steps:
- Set up Pulumi with the necessary provider for Kubernetes.
- Create a new Pulumi project.
- Define resources using the Kubernetes provider to deploy the Helm chart.
Below is a detailed explanation of the Pulumi program which accomplishes the deployment of the tekton-operator Helm chart on OpenShift.
Firstly, you'll need to import the required Pulumi and Kubernetes packages. The
@pulumi/kubernetes
package is used to interact with Kubernetes resources, including deploying Helm charts.In the code, the
kubernetes.helm.v3.Chart
class from Pulumi's Kubernetes provider is instantiated to deploy the tekton-operator chart. This class is a high-level abstraction to deploy charts, and it requires some basic information such as the chart name and the repository where the chart can be found.For the
Chart
class:chart
parameter specifies the name of the chart ("tekton-operator").version
parameter specifies the version of the chart you want to deploy. (This is optional; if you omit it, the latest version will be used).fetchOpts
parameter specifies retrieval options, where you can define the repository's URL.- Using the
namespace
parameter, you can deploy the chart within a specific namespace on your OpenShift cluster.
Now let's write the Pulumi program:
import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi"; import * as kubernetes from "@pulumi/kubernetes"; // Define the OpenShift provider configuration. // This assumes you have the kubeconfig file in place. const provider = new kubernetes.Provider("openshift", { kubeconfig: '<KUBE_CONFIG_CONTENT>', }); // Deploy the tekton-operator Helm chart into the "tekton-operator" namespace. const tektonOperatorChart = new kubernetes.helm.v3.Chart("tekton-operator", { chart: "tekton-operator", // Use the version suitable for you or omit for the latest version. version: "0.0.1", namespace: "tekton-operator", fetchOpts: { repo: "https://tekton-charts.storage.googleapis.com", // replace with the correct repo if necessary }, }, { provider: provider }); // Export the resources name of the Chart export const chartName = tektonOperatorChart.metadata.name;
In the above code:
- A new instance of the Pulumi Kubernetes provider is created. The
kubeconfig
is passed directly here. Ensure to replace<KUBE_CONFIG_CONTENT>
with the actual content or the path of your kubeconfig file of your OpenShift cluster. - A new Helm chart resource named
tekton-operator
is declared. You need to replace"https://tekton-charts.storage.googleapis.com"
with the actual Helm repository URL for the tekton-operator chart if it's different. - The chart is deployed in the namespace
tekton-operator
. If this namespace doesn't exist in your OpenShift cluster, it should be created beforehand, or you can setcreateNamespace: true
in theChart
args to let Pulumi handle its creation.
Remember that you need to have appropriate permissions for deploying resources in your OpenShift cluster. This Pulumi program doesn't include role configurations or bindings.
To execute this program, you'll need to follow these basic steps:
- Install Pulumi and configure it for TypeScript.
- Create a new Pulumi project with
pulumi new kubernetes-typescript
. - Replace the content of
index.ts
with the code above. - Run
pulumi up
to preview and deploy these changes.
Please make sure that your Pulumi CLI is configured with access to your OpenShift cluster and that you have the necessary permissions to deploy and manage resources in the cluster.
