Using the ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator with Helm

Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes, which enables you to install various packages (include the ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator) into your Kubernetes cluster.

The benefit of helm (in the context of the ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator) is that it allows for a lot of flexibility in how you install the operator. For example you can install the operator in a namespace other than default.

Charts

The ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator is contained in helm chart kube-arangodb which contains the operator for the ArangoDeployment, ArangoLocalStorage and ArangoDeploymentReplication resource types.

Configurable values for ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator

The following values can be configured when installing the ArangoDB Kubernetes Operator with helm.

Values are passed to helm using an --set=<key>=<value> argument passed to the helm install or helm upgrade command.

operator.image

Image used for the ArangoDB Operator.

Default: arangodb/kube-arangodb:latest

operator.imagePullPolicy

Image pull policy for Operator images.

Default: IfNotPresent

operator.imagePullSecrets

List of the Image Pull Secrets for Operator images.

Default: []string

operator.service.type

Type of the Operator service.

Default: ClusterIP

operator.annotations

Annotations passed to the Operator Deployment definition.

Default: []string

operator.resources.limits.cpu

CPU limits for operator pods.

Default: 1

operator.resources.limits.memory

Memory limits for operator pods.

Default: 256Mi

operator.resources.requested.cpu

Requested CPI by Operator pods.

Default: 250m

operator.resources.requested.memory

Requested memory for operator pods.

Default: 256Mi

operator.replicaCount

Replication count for Operator deployment.

Default: 2

operator.updateStrategy

Update strategy for operator pod.

Default: Recreate

operator.features.deployment

Define if ArangoDeployment Operator should be enabled.

Default: true

operator.features.deploymentReplications

Define if ArangoDeploymentReplications Operator should be enabled.

Default: true

operator.features.storage

Define if ArangoLocalStorage Operator should be enabled.

Default: false

operator.features.backup

Define if ArangoBackup Operator should be enabled.

Default: false

operator.enableCRDManagement

If true and operator has enough access permissions, it will try to install missing CRDs.

Default: true

rbac.enabled

Define if RBAC should be enabled.

Default: true

certificate.enabled

Define if Cert via CertManager should be enabled.

Default: false

certificate.ca.duration

CA Duration.

Default: 43800h

certificate.ca.commonName

CA CommonName.

Default: kube-arangodb.operator.cert

certificate.cert.duration

Cert Duration.

Default: 8760h

Alternate namespaces

The kube-arangodb chart supports deployment into a non-default namespace.

To install the kube-arangodb chart is a non-default namespace, use the --namespace argument like this.

helm install --namespace=mynamespace kube-arangodb.tgz

Note that since the operators claim exclusive access to a namespace, you can install the kube-arangodb chart in a namespace once. You can install the kube-arangodb chart in multiple namespaces. To do so, run:

helm install --namespace=namespace1 kube-arangodb.tgz
helm install --namespace=namespace2 kube-arangodb.tgz

The kube-arangodb-storage chart is always installed in the kube-system namespace.

Common problems

Error: no available release name found

This error is given by helm install ... in some cases where it has insufficient permissions to install charts.
