TL;DR¶

使用加速地址添加仓库:

helm repo add bitnami "https://helm-charts.itboon.top/bitnami" --force-update
helm update bitnami

helm install my-release bitnami/gitea

Introduction¶

This chart bootstraps a Gitea deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

It also packages the Bitnami PostgreSQL chart which is required for bootstrapping a PostgreSQL deployment as a database for the Gitea application.

Bitnami charts can be used with Kubeapps for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters.

Looking to use Gitea in production? Try VMware Application Catalog, the enterprise edition of Bitnami Application Catalog.

Prerequisites¶

• Kubernetes 1.19+
• Helm 3.2.0+
• PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure
• ReadWriteMany volumes for deployment scaling

Installing the Chart¶

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

helm install my-release bitnami/gitea

The command deploys Gitea on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The Parameters section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

Tip: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart¶

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Parameters¶

Global parameters¶

Common parameters¶

Gitea parameters¶

Traffic Exposure Parameters¶

Other Parameters¶

Database parameters¶

Volume Permissions parameters¶

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

helm install my-release \
  --set adminUsername=user,giteaPassword=password,postgresql.auth.rootPassword=secretpassword \
    bitnami/gitea

The above command sets the Gitea administrator account username and password to user and password respectively. Additionally, it sets the PostgreSQL root user password to secretpassword.

NOTE: Once this chart is deployed, it is not possible to change the application's access credentials, such as usernames or passwords, using Helm. To change these application credentials after deployment, delete any persistent volumes (PVs) used by the chart and re-deploy it, or use the application's built-in administrative tools if available.

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

helm install my-release -f values.yaml bitnami/gitea

Tip: You can use the default values.yaml

Configuration and installation details¶

Rolling VS Immutable tags¶

It is strongly recommended to use immutable tags in a production environment. This ensures your deployment does not change automatically if the same tag is updated with a different image.

Bitnami will release a new chart updating its containers if a new version of the main container, significant changes, or critical vulnerabilities exist.

Image¶

The image parameter allows specifying which image will be pulled for the chart.

Private registry¶

If you configure the image value to one in a private registry, you will need to specify an image pull secret.

1. Manually create image pull secret(s) in the namespace. See this YAML example reference. Consult your image registry's documentation about getting the appropriate secret.

2. Note that the imagePullSecrets configuration value cannot currently be passed to helm using the --set parameter, so you must supply these using a values.yaml file, such as:

   imagePullSecrets:
     - name: SECRET_NAME
   

3. Install the chart

Setting Pod's affinity¶

This chart allows you to set your custom affinity using the affinity parameter. Find more information about Pod's affinity in the kubernetes documentation.

As an alternative, you can use of the preset configurations for pod affinity, pod anti-affinity, and node affinity available at the bitnami/common chart. To do so, set the podAffinityPreset, podAntiAffinityPreset, or nodeAffinityPreset parameters.

Persistence¶

The Bitnami Gitea image stores the Gitea data and configurations at the /bitnami/gitea path of the container.

Persistent Volume Claims are used to keep the data across deployments. This is known to work in GCE, AWS, and minikube. See the Parameters section to configure the PVC or to disable persistence.

Existing PersistentVolumeClaim¶

1. Create the PersistentVolume
2. Create the PersistentVolumeClaim
3. Install the chart

helm install my-release --set persistence.existingClaim=PVC_NAME bitnami/gitea

Host path¶

System compatibility¶

• The local filesystem accessibility to a container in a pod with hostPath has been tested on OSX/MacOS with xhyve, and Linux with VirtualBox.
• Windows has not been tested with the supported VM drivers. Minikube does however officially support Mounting Host Folders per pod. Or you may manually sync your container whenever host files are changed with tools like docker-sync or docker-bg-sync.

Mounting steps¶

1. The specified hostPath directory must already exist (create one if it does not).

2. Install the chart

   helm install my-release --set persistence.hostPath=/PATH/TO/HOST/MOUNT bitnami/gitea
   

   This will mount the gitea-data volume into the hostPath directory. The site data will be persisted if the mount path contains valid data, else the site data will be initialized at first launch. 3. Because the container cannot control the host machine's directory permissions, you must set the Gitea file directory permissions yourself
