karydia can be installed as a webhook into any Kubernetes cluster.
The installation processes uses Helm to get karydia up and running and is split up into two parts.
You can also do an installation by hand without Tiller.
First, create a Helm service account and initiate Tiller on the cluster. Thus, run:
kubectl apply -f ./install/helm-service-account.yaml
and afterwards execute:
helm init --service-account tiller
Next, to deploy karydia simply run:
helm install ./install/charts --name karydia
Afterwards, you can check if karydia is running by taking a look at the logs:
kubectl logs -n kube-system $(kubectl get pods -n kube-system -l app=karydia -o jsonpath='{.items[0].metadata.name}') -f -c karydia
karydia is up and running, if the following information is logged:
{"component":"server","level":"info","msg":"[INFO] Listening on 0.0.0.0:33333","time":"2019-08-22T10:47:50Z"}
[...]
If you want to install the development image, simply run:
helm install ./install/charts --name karydia --set dev.active=true
Otherwise, you can set dev.active to true in the values.yaml file.
