Spinnaker Chart

Spinnaker is an open source, multi-cloud continuous delivery platform.

Chart Details

This chart will provision a fully functional and fully featured Spinnaker installation that can deploy and manage applications in the cluster that it is deployed to.

Redis and Minio are used as the stores for Spinnaker state.

For more information on Spinnaker and its capabilities, see it's documentation.

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

$ helm install --name my-release stable/spinnaker --timeout 600

Note that this chart pulls in many different Docker images so can take a while to fully install.

Configuration

Configurable values are documented in the values.yaml.

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install.

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

$ helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml stable/spinnaker

Tip: You can use the default values.yaml

Adding Kubernetes Clusters to Spinnaker

By default, installing the chart only registers the local cluster as a deploy target for Spinnaker. If you want to add arbitrary clusters need to do the following:

  1. Upload your kubeconfig to a secret with the key config in the cluster you are installing Spinnaker to.

    $ kubectl create secret generic --from-file=$HOME/.kube/config my-kubeconfig

  2. Set the following values of the chart:

    kubeConfig:
  enabled: true
  secretName: my-kubeconfig
  secretKey: config
  contexts:
  # Names of contexts available in the uploaded kubeconfig
  - my-context
  # This is the context from the list above that you would like
  # to deploy Spinnaker itself to.
  deploymentContext: my-context

Specifying Docker Registries and Valid Images (Repositories)

Spinnaker will only give you access to Docker images that have been whitelisted, if you're using a private registry or a private repository you also need to provide credentials. Update the following values of the chart to do so:

```yaml
dockerRegistries:
- name: dockerhub
  address: index.docker.io
  repositories:
    - library/alpine
    - library/ubuntu
    - library/centos
    - library/nginx
# - name: gcr
#   address: https://gcr.io
#   username: _json_key
#   password: '<INSERT YOUR SERVICE ACCOUNT JSON HERE>'
#   email: [email protected]
```

You can provide passwords as a Helm value, or you can use a pre-created secret containing your registry passwords. The secret should have an item per Registry in the format: <registry name>: <password>. In which case you'll specify the secret to use in dockerRegistryAccountSecret like so:

```yaml
dockerRegistryAccountSecret: myregistry-secrets
```

Customizing your installation

Manual

While the default installation is ready to handle your Kubernetes deployments, there are many different integrations that you can turn on with Spinnaker. In order to customize Spinnaker, you can use the Halyard command line hal to edit the configuration and apply it to what has already been deployed.

Halyard has an in-cluster daemon that stores your configuration. You can exec a shell in this pod to make and apply your changes. The Halyard daemon is configured with a persistent volume to ensure that your configuration data persists any node failures, reboots or upgrades.

For example:

$ helm install -n cd stable/spinnaker
$ kubectl exec -it cd-spinnaker-halyard-0 bash
spinnaker@cd-spinnaker-halyard-0:/workdir$ hal version list

Automated

If you have known set of commands that you'd like to run after the base config steps or if you'd like to override some settings before the Spinnaker deployment is applied, you can enable the halyard.additionalConfig.enabled flag. You will need to create a config map that contains a key containing the hal commands you'd like to run. You can set the key via the config map name via halyard.additionalConfig.configMapName and the key via halyard.additionalConfig.configMapKey. The DAEMON_ENDPOINT environment variable can be used in your custom commands to get a prepopulated URL that points to your Halyard daemon within the cluster. For example:

hal --daemon-endpoint $DAEMON_ENDPOINT config security authn oauth2 enable
