Deploy the Kube-Prometheus-Stack-Crd Helm Chart on TypeScriptogle Kubernetes Engine (GKE)

Deploying kube-prometheus-stack-crd Helm Chart on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)

In this guide, we will deploy the kube-prometheus-stack-crd Helm chart on a GKE cluster using Pulumi with TypeScript. The key services involved are Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) for the Kubernetes cluster and Helm for managing the chart deployment.

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Set up Pulumi and Google Cloud Provider

   • Ensure you have Pulumi CLI installed.
   • Configure Pulumi to use Google Cloud Provider.
   • Set up authentication with Google Cloud.

2. Create a GKE Cluster

   • Define the GKE cluster resource in Pulumi.
   • Specify the necessary configurations such as node count, machine type, and region.

3. Install the kube-prometheus-stack-crd Helm Chart

   • Define the Helm chart resource in Pulumi.
   • Specify the chart name, repository, and version.
   • Configure any necessary values for the chart.

Summary

By following this guide, you will have a GKE cluster up and running with the kube-prometheus-stack-crd Helm chart deployed. This setup will allow you to monitor your Kubernetes cluster using Prometheus and Grafana.

Full Code Example

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as gcp from "@pulumi/gcp";
import * as k8s from "@pulumi/kubernetes";

// Create a GKE cluster
const cluster = new gcp.container.Cluster("gke-cluster", {
    initialNodeCount: 3,
    nodeConfig: {
        machineType: "e2-medium",
    },
    location: "us-central1",
});

// Export the Kubeconfig
export const kubeconfig = pulumi.all([cluster.name, cluster.endpoint, cluster.masterAuth]).apply(([name, endpoint, masterAuth]) => {
    const context = \`\${gcp.config.project}_\${gcp.config.zone}_\${name}\`;
    return \`apiVersion: v1
clusters:
- cluster:
    certificate-authority-data: \${masterAuth.clusterCaCertificate}
    server: https://\${endpoint}
  name: \${context}
contexts:
- context:
    cluster: \${context}
    user: \${context}
  name: \${context}
current-context: \${context}
kind: Config
preferences: {}
users:
- name: \${context}
  user:
    auth-provider:
      config:
        access-token: \${gcp.config.accessToken}
        cmd-args: config config-helper --format=json
        cmd-path: gcloud
        token-type: Bearer
      name: gcp
\`;
});

// Create a Kubernetes provider instance using the Kubeconfig
const k8sProvider = new k8s.Provider("k8s-provider", {
    kubeconfig: kubeconfig,
});

// Deploy the kube-prometheus-stack-crd Helm chart
const prometheusStack = new k8s.helm.v3.Release("kube-prometheus-stack-crd", {
    chart: "kube-prometheus-stack-crd",
    version: "15.4.6",
    repositoryOpts: {
        repo: "https://prometheus-community.github.io/helm-charts",
    },
    values: {},
}, { provider: k8sProvider });

// Export the status of the Helm release
export const helmReleaseStatus = prometheusStack.status;
