helm-charts/openshift-console

OpenShift Console (Bridge)

Bridge is the OpenShift console.

TL;DR

$ helm repo add av1o https://av1o.gitlab.io/charts
$ helm install bridge av1o/openshift-console

Introduction

This chart bootstraps a deployment of the OpenShift Console on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

The OpenShift Console is designed for running on OpenShift, however it works perfectly fine in native Kubernetes. Since the Console is unable to use the default OpenShift OAuth2, this chart is expecting a Dex deployment which is configured to generate OIDC tokens for the Kubernetes API server. This behaviour can be configured with the extraEnv map.

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.12+
• Helm 3

Installing the Chart

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

$ helm install my-release av1o/openshift-console

The command deploys the console on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration.

Tip

: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

$ helm delete my-release
