Deploy a chart with Flux on your Clustertool Cluster
This guide will explain briefly how to deploy a chart on your brand new Clustertool Cluster using Flux.
Create the files
- Your charts can be placed in the folder
clusters/main/kubernetes/apps/. - There will make a folder for your
chartand inside that folder anappfolder. - In this guide we will use as example
librespeed - So it will be like:
clusters/main/kubernetes/apps/librespeed/app/ - In this folder we will create two files,
helm-release.yamlandnamespace.yaml.
apiVersion: v1kind: Namespacemetadata: name: librespeed## Add this part when you need a privileged namespace# labels:# pod-security.kubernetes.io/enforce: privilegedPrivileged Namespace
Add the label for pod-security only when it is really needed. After deploying the chart and this part will be needed you will see this in your event logs.

- Run
clustertool genconfig. This will createskustomization.yamlandks.yamlfiles. - Also this will update the
kustomization.yamlin the folder above. - Push to git
- Wait for flux to get it deployed. This can be taken up to 30 minutes. Another option you can do is run flux reconcile or configure a flux webhook.
