Kubernetes

This page assumes that you have decided to install UnPoller onto a Kubernetes cluster. Installing a cluster is not in the scope of this guide.

First​

All the possible configuration can be found on the main page hosting the chart. This chart uses CRDs from the Prometheus Operator, which can be installed with their community repository.

Installation​

The two main ways to install the Helm chart are through the CLI or through a GitOps tool such as Flux.

helm repo add unpoller https://unpoller.github.io/helm-chart
helm repo update

If you are using Flux, you can rely on their CR:

apiVersion: source.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1
kind: HelmRepository
metadata:
  name: unpoller
  namespace: flux-system
spec:
  interval: 10m
  url: https://unpoller.github.io/helm-chart

Once the repository has been configured, you can proceed to install the chart.

helm install -f myvalues.yaml your-release-name unpoller/unpoller
apiVersion: helm.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v2
kind: HelmRelease
metadata:
  name: unpoller
  namespace: flux-system
spec:
  interval: 5m
  targetNamespace: unifi
  chart:
    spec:
      chart: unpoller
      sourceRef:
        kind: HelmRepository
        name: unpoller
        namespace: flux-system
      interval: 10m
  values:
    allPossibleValues:

Pin spec.chart.spec.version to a chart release if you do not want Flux to track latest.

Maintenance​

When a new release of the chart (or UnPoller) is generated you can update UnPoller by running Helm:

helm upgrade --reuse-values your-release-name unpoller/unpoller

In case of Flux or Argo CD, updating the version of the chart should be enough.
