FIWARE Data Space Connector

Connector bundling all components

Deployment with Helm

Even thought a gitops-approach, following the app-of-apps pattern, with ArgoCD, is the preferred way to deploy the Data-Space-Connector, not everyone has has it available. Therefor, the Data-Space-Connector is also provided as an Umbrella-Chart, containing all the sub-charts and their dependencies.

The chart is available at the repository https://fiware-ops.github.io/data-space-connector/. You can install it via:

    # add the repo
    helm repo add dsc https://fiware-ops.github.io/data-space-connector/
    # install the chart
    helm install dsc/data-space-connector

The chart also contains the argo-cd applications support, thus it can be used to generate argo-deployments, too. In plain Helm deployments, this should be disabled in the values.yaml:

argoApplications: false

Configurations for all sub-charts(and sub-dependencies) can be managed through the top-level values.yaml of the chart. It contains the default values of each application. The configuration of the applications can be changed under the key <APPLICATION_NAME>, please see the individual applications and there sub-charts for the available options. Example: In order to change the image-tag of Keycloak and the issuer did used by it, the values.yaml looks as following:

keycloak:
    # configuration directly in the application chart, extending the original keycloak chart
    didConfig:
        domain: "my-new-did-domain.org"
    # configuration for the keycloak-sub-chart. Its used as a dependency to the application, thus all config is accessible under the dependency name
    keycloak:
        image:
            tag: LATEST_GREATEST

The chart is generated on each merge to master from the current app-of-apps, thus no source is constantly available. For details, unpack the chart directly and check its contents:

    # set version you are interested in
    version=0.0.1
    wget https://github.com/FIWARE-Ops/data-space-connector/releases/download/data-space-connector-$version/data-space-connector-$version.tgz | && tar -xzvf data-space-connector-$version.tgz
