Deploy the elastictranscoder helm chart on Kubernetes
TypeScriptTo deploy an Elastic Transcoder Helm chart on Kubernetes using Pulumi, you need to include the
@pulumi/kubernetes
package in your project to work with Kubernetes resources. Additionally, you will utilize the Helm support provided by Pulumi's Kubernetes package to deploy a Helm chart. Specifically, you can use theChart
class from the@pulumi/kubernetes/helm/v3
module.Here's a detailed explanation followed by the TypeScript program to deploy the Elastic Transcoder Helm chart:
-
Create a New Pulumi Project: First, you'd create a new Pulumi project. You can do this by executing
pulumi new typescript
in your CLI and following the prompts. -
Install Dependencies: Install the necessary Pulumi Kubernetes package by running the command
npm install @pulumi/kubernetes
. -
Define the Configuration: We will define the necessary configuration like namespace, chart version, and any custom values that are specific to the Elastic Transcoder chart.
-
Instantiate the Chart: We will create a new instance of the
Chart
class and pass the chart name and other configurations. The Pulumi program will manage the Helm chart like it does with other Kubernetes resources. -
Export Any Outputs: You can export certain fields from the deployed resources to view them easily, such as service endpoints.
Below you will find a Pulumi program written in TypeScript to accomplish this:
import * as k8s from '@pulumi/kubernetes'; // This is a program to deploy an Elastic Transcoder Helm chart on a Kubernetes cluster. // It assumes that you already have a Kubernetes cluster configured and Pulumi set up to interact with it. // Define the configuration for the Helm release. const elasticTranscoderChart = new k8s.helm.v3.Chart('elastic-transcoder', { chart: 'elastictranscoder', version: '1.0.0', // Specify the version of the chart you wish to deploy. Change this to the desired version. fetchOpts: { // Specify the repository from which to fetch the chart. // Replace the repo URL with the actual repository hosting the Elastic Transcoder Helm chart. repo: 'https://charts.example.com/', }, // You can specify a namespace or use the default namespace. namespace: 'default', // If needed, you can provide additional configuration for the chart as key-value pairs in the 'values' property. values: { // Place any values you want to override here. For example: // resources: { // limits: { // cpu: "200m", // memory: "256Mi" // } // }, // Other chart-specific values... } }); // Export the status URL of the service. Make sure to replace `serviceName` with the actual name used by the chart. export const serviceUrl = elasticTranscoderChart.getResourceProperty('v1/Service', 'serviceName', 'status').apply(status => status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].hostname); // After running `pulumi up`, Pulumi will perform the deployment to the Kubernetes cluster, // and as a result of the deployment, it will output the service URL.
In this program, we import the necessary Pulumi Kubernetes package and define a new chart using Pulumi’s Helm integration. We define the repository where our Helm chart is hosted and any specific values you might need to override by default. After we deploy the chart, we export the URL of the service that is created so that you can easily access the Elastic Transcoder service.
Remember to customize this code based on the actual Elastic Transcoder Helm chart, including filling in specific configuration values under the
values
property and the correct repository URL underfetchOpts.repo
.To run this Pulumi program:
- Ensure you've installed Pulumi and configured it to connect to your Kubernetes cluster.
- Create a new Pulumi TypeScript project and place the code in the
index.ts
file. - Run
npm install @pulumi/kubernetes
to get the required Kubernetes package. - Run
pulumi up
to deploy the Helm chart to your Kubernetes cluster.
Pulumi will take care of communicating with your Kubernetes cluster and deploying the specified Helm chart with the given configuration. The output of
pulumi up
will contain the exportedserviceUrl
which you can use to access your Elastic Transcoder service.-
