Deploy the teleport-plugin-discord helm chart on Opensshift
TypeScriptTo deploy the
teleport-plugin-discord
Helm chart on an OpenShift cluster using Pulumi, we'll be leveraging the Pulumi Kubernetes provider. OpenShift is fundamentally Kubernetes; thus, you can use Pulumi's Kubernetes provider to manage resources in an OpenShift cluster just as you would in a standard Kubernetes environment.Before jumping into the Pulumi code, ensure you have the following prerequisites in place:
- An existing OpenShift cluster where you have permissions to deploy resources.
- Configured
kubectl
to communicate with your OpenShift cluster. - Pulumi CLI installed and configured for your OpenShift cluster.
- Helm chart details, including the repository and the chart name for
teleport-plugin-discord
.
The code below creates a Pulumi program that deploys a Helm chart to your OpenShift cluster. It specifies the chart's repository, name, version (if necessary), and any custom values you'd like to apply.
Let's walk through the program:
import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes"; // Define the settings for the Helm chart. const chartName = "teleport-plugin-discord"; const chartVersion = "0.1.0"; // Replace with the appropriate chart version const chartRepository = "https://charts.releases.teleport.dev"; // Replace with the appropriate repository URL const releaseName = "teleport-plugin-discord-release"; const namespace = "default"; // Replace with the namespace you wish to deploy into // Instantiate the Helm chart. const discordPluginChart = new k8s.helm.v3.Chart(releaseName, { chart: chartName, version: chartVersion, fetchOpts: { repo: chartRepository, }, namespace: namespace, // If the Helm chart requires additional values, define them here as an object. // values: { // key: "value", // }, }, { provider: /* If you've explicitly created a Kubernetes provider for Pulumi, pass it here. */ }); // Optional: Export any resources you want to easily access. export const chartStatus = discordPluginChart.status;
In this code:
- We import the Pulumi Kubernetes library which allows us to interact with Kubernetes resources, including deploying Helm charts.
- We define some constants with settings for the Helm chart we want to deploy, such as its name, version, and repository.
- We use the
k8s.helm.v3.Chart
class to create a Helm chart resource. This tells Pulumi to deploy the specified chart from the given repository, optionally with a specified version and custom values. Note that you should provide the correct repository URL for the chart. - Optionally, at the end of the file, we export the
chartStatus
for easy access to the deployment status of the Helm chart after running the Pulumi program.
Here's the documentation for Pulumi's Kubernetes provider, which can give you more information on the available options when deploying a Helm chart.
To deploy this application, save the program to a file, such as
index.ts
, in a new Pulumi project directory. Then, executepulumi up
within that directory to create the resources on OpenShift. Make sure that yourkubectl
is configured to communicate with your OpenShift cluster and that your Pulumi setup has the necessary permissions.This Pulumi program assumes you are deploying to the
default
namespace and have no unique values to supplement the Helm chart. You will need to adjust these parameters to match your environment and the Helm chart's requirements. If there are any particular values you'd like to override from the chart's default set, include them in thevalues: { key: "value" }
object in thediscordPluginChart
declaration.
