The goal of adding a namespace in the templates
is to ensure that resources are deployed
in a specific, possibly isolated part of the Kubernetes cluster.
This helps in organizing resources, managing
permissions, and applying configurations or
limits appropriately within the cluster.
First, thanks a LOT @rouja for your help along the way.
This commit propose a first draft of Helm chart to prepare deployment.
It follows Plane's Helm Chart, hosted on the shared team repo,
please https://github.com/numerique-gouv/helm-charts, PR #11
It offers advanced templating function under _helpers.tpl, an auto-generated
README file when running ./generate-readme.sh, and a clear files structure.
The chart itself is quite simple. We have two deployments, one for the
frontend and one for the backend. Both need a dedicated service, which are
exposed using a common ingress. Frontend is accessible from the / path and
backend's from /api path.
Please note, we added a backend job to migrate the database when deploying
backend's pods. This job should be auto-cleaning itself 100s after it completes
to avoid any error when syncing helm.
values.yaml file is quite pristine, all common env variables will be set
in helmfile configuration.
Deploying frontend static files through kubernetes is temporary, we plan to
either remplace it by an external CDN or use minio to host static output in
a S3 bucket within the cluster.
