Upgrade Responder Chart

Usage

1. Clone this repo

   git clone https://github.com/longhorn/upgrade-responder.git && cd upgrade-responder
   

2. Create a my_values.yaml file to hold customized Helm chart values. At the minimum my_values.yaml should contain:

   # Specify the name of the application that is using this Upgrade Responder server
   # This will be used to create a database named <application-name>_upgrade_responder
   # in the InfluxDB to store all data for this Upgrade Responder
   # The name must be in snake case format
   applicationName: awesome_app
   
   secret:
     name: upgrade-responder-secrets
     # Set this to false if you don't want to manage these secrets with helm
     managed: true
     influxDBUrl: "http://url-to-influxdb"
     influxDBUser: "username"
     influxDBPassword: "password"
   
   # This configmap contains information about the latest release
   # of the application that is using this Upgrade Responder
   configMap:
     responseConfig: |-
       {
          "Versions": [{
             "Name": "v1.1.1",
             "ReleaseDate": "2020-05-18T12:30:00Z",
             "Tags": ["latest"]
          }]
       }

3. Running

   helm upgrade --install awesome-app-upgrade-responder ./chart -f /path/to/my_values.yaml

Notes

1. If you use the same InfluxDB for multiple Upgrade Responder chart releases, you can manually create a secret with the name specified by secret.name and set secret.managed to false so Helm doesn't complain about duplicated secret name.
