Deploy the s3manager helm chart on Rancher
TypeScriptTo deploy the
s3manager
helm chart on a Rancher-managed Kubernetes cluster using Pulumi, we will be using therancher2
package. Therancher2
package provides the necessary resources to interact with a Rancher server and deploy Helm charts to the Kubernetes clusters it manages.Before proceeding with the Pulumi program, ensure that:
- You have access to a Rancher server and the Kubernetes cluster is already provisioned and managed by Rancher.
- You have installed Pulumi and configured it with credentials that allow it to authenticate with Rancher.
- You have the
s3manager
Helm chart available in a Helm repository or as a local chart that can be pointed to during deployment.
Here is a program that accomplishes the deployment of a Helm chart to a Rancher-managed cluster using Pulumi with TypeScript:
import * as rancher2 from "@pulumi/rancher2"; import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes"; // The Rancher cluster where you want to deploy the s3manager Helm chart. const clusterName = "my-rancher-cluster"; // Obtain a reference to the target Rancher cluster. const cluster = new rancher2.Cluster(clusterName, {/* ... */}); // Helm chart installation details. const s3managerChart = new k8s.helm.v3.Chart("s3manager-chart", { chart: "s3manager", version: "1.0.0", // Change to the desired chart version. fetchOpts: { repo: "http://my-helm-repo.org/charts", // Replace with the location of your Helm chart. }, // Include any custom values for configuring the s3manager Helm chart. // values: { // serviceType: "ClusterIP", // ... // } }, { provider: cluster }); // Make sure to pass the Rancher cluster as the provider. export const chartName = s3managerChart.metadata.name; // An output that gives you the name of the Helm chart.
This Pulumi program does the following:
- It imports the necessary Pulumi packages,
rancher2
for interacting with Rancher andkubernetes
for working with Kubernetes objects. - Declares a constant
clusterName
which should be set to the name of the Rancher cluster you want to target. - Retrieves the existing Rancher cluster managed by Rancher using
new rancher2.Cluster
. - Deploys the
s3manager
Helm chart to the Kubernetes cluster usingnew k8s.helm.v3.Chart
. - Specifies the location of the Helm chart repository where
s3manager
is hosted withfetchOpts.repo
. - Optionally, you can pass configuration values to customize the deployment of the s3manager helm chart within the
values
section. - Sets the provider context to the imported Rancher cluster to ensure that operations are performed on the correct cluster.
After preparing this program, you would run
pulumi up
to execute the deployment. Make sure to replace placeholders (like the chart version, chart repository URL, and configuration values) with actual values relevant to your use case.If you want to know more about the available configurations for the
rancher2
package and the Helm chart deployment, you can refer to the documentation:Remember that this program will make changes to your Rancher-managed cluster when executed, and it should be reviewed carefully to ensure that it meets your exact specifications before running it in a production environment.
