# Installation on a k8s cluster
|
||
|
||
This document is a step-by-step guide that describes how to install Conversations on a k8s cluster without AI features. It's a teaching document to learn how it works. It needs to be adapted for a production environment.
|
||
|
||
## Prerequisites
|
||
|
||
- k8s cluster with an nginx-ingress controller
|
||
- an OIDC provider (if you don't have one, we provide an example)
|
||
- a PostgreSQL server (if you don't have one, we provide an example)
|
||
- a Redis server (if you don't have one, we provide an example)
|
||
- a S3 bucket (if you don't have one, we provide an example)
|
||
|
||
### Test cluster
|
||
|
||
If you do not have a test cluster, you can install everything on a local Kind cluster. In this case, the simplest way is to use our script **bin/start-kind.sh**.
|
||
|
||
To be able to use the script, you need to install:
|
||
|
||
- Docker (https://docs.docker.com/desktop/)
|
||
- Kind (https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/quick-start/#installation)
|
||
- Mkcert (https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert#installation)
|
||
- Helm (https://helm.sh/docs/intro/quickstart/#install-helm)
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
./bin/start-kind.sh

|
||
0. Create ca
|
||
The local CA is already installed in the system trust store! 👍
|
||
The local CA is already installed in the Firefox and/or Chrome/Chromium trust store! 👍
|
||
|
||
|
||
Created a new certificate valid for the following names 📜
|
||
- "127.0.0.1.nip.io"
|
||
- "*.127.0.0.1.nip.io"
|
||
|
||
Reminder: X.509 wildcards only go one level deep, so this won't match a.b.127.0.0.1.nip.io ℹ️
|
||
|
||
The certificate is at "./127.0.0.1.nip.io+1.pem" and the key at "./127.0.0.1.nip.io+1-key.pem" ✅
|
||
|
||
It will expire on 24 March 2027 🗓
|
||
|
||
1. Create registry container unless it already exists
|
||
2. Create kind cluster with containerd registry config dir enabled
|
||
Creating cluster "suite" ...
|
||
✓ Ensuring node image (kindest/node:v1.27.3) 🖼
|
||
✓ Preparing nodes 📦
|
||
✓ Writing configuration 📜
|
||
✓ Starting control-plane 🕹️
|
||
✓ Installing CNI 🔌
|
||
✓ Installing StorageClass 💾
|
||
Set kubectl context to "kind-suite"
|
||
You can now use your cluster with:
|
||
|
||
kubectl cluster-info --context kind-suite
|
||
|
||
Thanks for using kind! 😊
|
||
3. Add the registry config to the nodes
|
||
4. Connect the registry to the cluster network if not already connected
|
||
5. Document the local registry
|
||
configmap/local-registry-hosting created
|
||
Warning: resource configmaps/coredns is missing the kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration annotation which is required by kubectl apply. kubectl apply should only be used on resources created declaratively by either kubectl create --save-config or kubectl apply. The missing annotation will be patched automatically.
|
||
configmap/coredns configured
|
||
deployment.apps/coredns restarted
|
||
6. Install ingress-nginx
|
||
namespace/ingress-nginx created
|
||
serviceaccount/ingress-nginx created
|
||
serviceaccount/ingress-nginx-admission created
|
||
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx created
|
||
role.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx-admission created
|
||
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx created
|
||
clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx-admission created
|
||
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx created
|
||
rolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx-admission created
|
||
clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx created
|
||
clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/ingress-nginx-admission created
|
||
configmap/ingress-nginx-controller created
|
||
service/ingress-nginx-controller created
|
||
service/ingress-nginx-controller-admission created
|
||
deployment.apps/ingress-nginx-controller created
|
||
job.batch/ingress-nginx-admission-create created
|
||
job.batch/ingress-nginx-admission-patch created
|
||
ingressclass.networking.k8s.io/nginx created
|
||
validatingwebhookconfiguration.admissionregistration.k8s.io/ingress-nginx-admission created
|
||
secret/mkcert created
|
||
deployment.apps/ingress-nginx-controller patched
|
||
7. Setup namespace
|
||
namespace/conversations created
|
||
Context "kind-suite" modified.
|
||
secret/mkcert created
|
||
$ kubectl -n ingress-nginx get po
|
||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
ingress-nginx-admission-create-t55ph 0/1 Completed 0 2m56s
|
||
ingress-nginx-admission-patch-94dvt 0/1 Completed 1 2m56s
|
||
ingress-nginx-controller-57c548c4cd-2rx47 1/1 Running 0 2m56s
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
When your k8s cluster is ready (the ingress nginx controller is up), you can start the deployment. This cluster is special because it uses the `*.127.0.0.1.nip.io` domain and mkcert certificates to have full HTTPS support and easy domain name management.
|
||
|
||
Please remember that `*.127.0.0.1.nip.io` will always resolve to `127.0.0.1`, except in the k8s cluster where we configure CoreDNS to answer with the ingress-nginx service IP.
|
||
|
||
## Preparation
|
||
|
||
### What do you use to authenticate your users?
|
||
|
||
Conversations uses OIDC, so if you already have an OIDC provider, obtain the necessary information to use it. In the next step, we will see how to configure Django (and thus Conversations) to use it. If you do not have a provider, we will show you how to deploy a local Keycloak instance (this is not a production deployment, just a demo).
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ kubectl create namespace conversations
|
||
$ kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=conversations
|
||
$ helm install keycloak oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/keycloak -f examples/keycloak.values.yaml
|
||
$ #wait until
|
||
$ kubectl get po
|
||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
keycloak-0 1/1 Running 0 6m48s
|
||
keycloak-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 6m48s
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
From here the important information you will need are:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
OIDC_OP_JWKS_ENDPOINT: https://keycloak.127.0.0.1.nip.io/realms/conversations/protocol/openid-connect/certs
|
||
OIDC_OP_AUTHORIZATION_ENDPOINT: https://keycloak.127.0.0.1.nip.io/realms/conversations/protocol/openid-connect/auth
|
||
OIDC_OP_TOKEN_ENDPOINT: https://keycloak.127.0.0.1.nip.io/realms/conversations/protocol/openid-connect/token
|
||
OIDC_OP_USER_ENDPOINT: https://keycloak.127.0.0.1.nip.io/realms/conversations/protocol/openid-connect/userinfo
|
||
OIDC_OP_LOGOUT_ENDPOINT: https://keycloak.127.0.0.1.nip.io/realms/conversations/protocol/openid-connect/session/end
|
||
OIDC_RP_CLIENT_ID: conversations
|
||
OIDC_RP_CLIENT_SECRET: ThisIsAnExampleKeyForDevPurposeOnly
|
||
OIDC_RP_SIGN_ALGO: RS256
|
||
OIDC_RP_SCOPES: "openid email"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can find these values in **examples/keycloak.values.yaml**
|
||
|
||
### Find redis server connection values
|
||
|
||
Conversations needs a redis so we start by deploying one:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ helm install redis oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/redis -f examples/redis.values.yaml
|
||
$ kubectl get po
|
||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
keycloak-0 1/1 Running 0 26m
|
||
keycloak-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 26m
|
||
redis-master-0 1/1 Running 0 35s
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Find postgresql connection values
|
||
|
||
Conversations uses a postgresql database as backend, so if you have a provider, obtain the necessary information to use it. If you don't, you can install a postgresql testing environment as follow:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ helm install postgresql oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/postgresql -f examples/postgresql.values.yaml
|
||
$ kubectl get po
|
||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
keycloak-0 1/1 Running 0 28m
|
||
keycloak-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 28m
|
||
postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 14m
|
||
redis-master-0 1/1 Running 0 42s
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
From here the important information you will need are:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
DB_HOST: postgres-postgresql
|
||
DB_NAME: conversations
|
||
DB_USER: dinum
|
||
DB_PASSWORD: pass
|
||
DB_PORT: 5432
|
||
POSTGRES_DB: conversations
|
||
POSTGRES_USER: dinum
|
||
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: pass
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Find s3 bucket connection values
|
||
|
||
Conversations uses an s3 bucket to store documents, so if you have a provider obtain the necessary information to use it. If you don't, you can install a local minio testing environment as follow:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ helm install minio oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/minio -f examples/minio.values.yaml
|
||
$ kubectl get po
|
||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
keycloak-0 1/1 Running 0 38m
|
||
keycloak-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 38m
|
||
minio-84f5c66895-bbhsk 1/1 Running 0 42s
|
||
minio-provisioning-2b5sq 0/1 Completed 0 42s
|
||
postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 24m
|
||
redis-master-0 1/1 Running 0 10m
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Deployment
|
||
|
||
Now you are ready to deploy Conversations without AI. AI requires more dependencies (OpenAI API). To deploy Conversations you need to provide all previous information to the helm chart.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ helm repo add conversations https://suitenumerique.github.io/conversations/
|
||
$ helm repo update
|
||
$ helm install conversations conversations/conversations -f examples/conversations.values.yaml
|
||
$ kubectl get po
|
||
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
|
||
conversations-conversations-backend-96558758d-xtkbp 0/1 Running 0 79s
|
||
conversations-conversations-backend-createsuperuser-r7ltc 0/1 Completed 0 79s
|
||
conversations-conversations-backend-migrate-c949s 0/1 Completed 0 79s
|
||
conversations-conversations-frontend-6749f644f7-p5s42 1/1 Running 0 79s
|
||
keycloak-0 1/1 Running 0 48m
|
||
keycloak-postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 48m
|
||
minio-84f5c66895-bbhsk 1/1 Running 0 10m
|
||
minio-provisioning-2b5sq 0/1 Completed 0 10m
|
||
postgresql-0 1/1 Running 0 34m
|
||
redis-master-0 1/1 Running 0 20m
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Test your deployment
|
||
|
||
In order to test your deployment you have to log into your instance. If you exclusively use our examples you can do:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ kubectl get ingress
|
||
NAME CLASS HOSTS ADDRESS PORTS AGE
|
||
conversations-conversations <none> conversations.127.0.0.1.nip.io localhost 80, 443 114s
|
||
conversations-conversations-admin <none> conversations.127.0.0.1.nip.io localhost 80, 443 114s
|
||
conversations-conversations-media <none> conversations.127.0.0.1.nip.io localhost 80, 443 114s
|
||
conversations-conversations-ws <none> conversations.127.0.0.1.nip.io localhost 80, 443 114s
|
||
keycloak <none> keycloak.127.0.0.1.nip.io localhost 80 49m
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can use Conversations at https://conversations.127.0.0.1.nip.io. The provisionning user in keycloak is conversations/conversations.
