1. Installed and configured [kubernetes ](https://kubernetes.io/ ) cluster.
```
2. Installed [kubectl ](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/#kubectl )
## How to change embedded postgresql password?
3. Installed [Helm ](https://helm.sh/ ).
There are several passwords used here, for security reasons - better change them all.
4. Installed [dependencies ](#installing-dependencies )
### Installing dependencies
To install and/or update run:
```sh
helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
helm repo update
helm dependency update
```
```
### Optional steps
1. Install ingress of your choice (for example: < https: / / github . com / kubernetes / ingress-nginx > )
2. Create certificates for https (for example: < https: / / github . com / jetstack / cert-manager / > )
## Configuration
1. Create `values.override.yaml` file inside `helm-chart` directory.
2. Fill `values.override.yaml` with new parameters for chart.
3. Override [postgresql password ](#postgresql-password )
4. (Optional) Add [ingress parameters ](#ingress-parameters )
### Postgresql password?
Put below into your `values.override.yaml`
```yaml
postgresql:
postgresql:
secret:
secret:
password: cvat_postgresql
password: < insert_password >
postgres_password: cvat_postgresql_postgres
postgres_password: < insert_postgres_password >
replication_password: cvat_postgresql_replica
replication_password: < insert_replication_password >
```
Or, if you know how to work with k8s - you could create your own secret and use it here:
```
```
Or create your own secret and use it with:
```yaml
postgresql:
postgresql:
global:
global:
postgresql:
postgresql:
existingSecret: cvat-postgres-secret
existingSecret: < secret >
```
### Ingress parameters
Paste below parameters to `values.override.yaml`
```yaml
ingress:
enabled: true
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
kubernetes.io/tls-acme: "true"
ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "true"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/use-regex: "true"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/secure-backends: "true"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size: "0"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-send-timeout: "120"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-read-timeout: "120"
cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer: < issuer_name >

- host: < your_domain >
paths:
- path: "/api/.*|git/.*|tensorflow/.*|auto_annotation/.*|analytics/.*|static/.*|admin|admin/.*|documentation/.*|dextr/.*|reid/.*"
service:
name: < release_name > -backend-service
port: 8080
- path: "/"
pathType: "Prefix"
service:
name: < release_name > -frontend-service
port: 80
tls:
- hosts:

secretName: ingress-tls-cvat
```
```
## How to describe ingress:
## Deployment
Make sure you are using correct kubernetes context. You can check it with `kubectl config current-context` .
Execute following command from repo root directory
### With overrides:
```helm upgrade -n < desired_namespace > < release_name > -i --create-namespace ./helm-chart -f ./helm-chart/values.yaml -f ./helm-chart/values.override.yaml```
### Without overrides:
```helm upgrade -n < desired_namespace > < release_name > -i --create-namespace ./helm-chart -f ./helm-chart/values.yaml```
## Post-deployment configuration
1. Create [super user ](#how-to-create-superuser )
### How to create superuser?
```sh
HELM_RELEASE_NAMESPACE="< desired_namespace > " & & \
HELM_RELEASE_NAME="< release_name > " & & \
BACKEND_POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pod --namespace $HELM_RELEASE_NAMESPACE -l tier=backend,app.kubernetes.io/instance=$HELM_RELEASE_NAME -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') & & \
kubectl exec -it --namespace $HELM_RELEASE_NAMESPACE $BACKEND_POD_NAME -c cvat-backend-app-container -- python manage.py createsuperuser
```
