plantuml-sever-helm

A helm chart for PlantUML-Server

Requirements

Written for Helm 3.

Example use

You can clone this repo, enter the repository folder and then execute something like the start_plantuml-server.sh:

./start_plantuml-server.sh

The script will spin up PlantUML-Server using the example example_values.yaml values file. You will need to provide your own if you want to configure other settings, and ingress, etc. Look at the values.yaml file for what to place in your own.

To install via my chart repository

helm repo add nemonik https://nemonik.github.io/helm-charts/
helm repo update
helm search repo plantuml-server
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nemonik/plantuml-server-helm/master/example-values.yaml
helm install plantuml-server nemonik/plantuml-server --namespace plantuml-server --create-namespace -f example-values.yaml
watch -n 15 kubectl get pods -n plantuml-server

Accessing PlantUML-Server

If you've spun up PlantUML-Server using the start_plantuml-server.sh script, you can access it in your browser via exposing via kubectl port-forward like so

kubectl port-forward -n plantuml-server service/plantuml-server 8080:80

then open in your browser http://localhost:8080

Or configure an ingress via your values file by adding an ingress configuration under in your values file likes so:

ingress:
  enabled: true
  annotations:
    traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/router.entrypoints: web
  hosts:
    - host: plantuml.example.com
      paths:
        -  "/"
  tls: []

This example uses Traefik to expose the ingress. Configuring Traefik is out of scope of this readme.

In my forthcoming updated Hands-on DevOps class I do this exposing PlantUML-Server over https, so when that drops you can find some insight how to do so there.
