第 6 篇 自定义 Helm Chart


🚀 本文内容:如何创建一个属于自己的 chart。

⭐ 详细步骤:

  • 使用 helm create mychart 创建 chart,chart 名称为 mychart,默认为 nginx
  • 修改 chart,以满足实际的自定义需求
  • 使用 helm lint mychart 检查格式
  • 使用 helm install 模拟运行/实际运行 chart,验证是否满足功能要求
  • 打包并生成 index.yaml

下面的例子,创建一个 Nginx chart。默认创建的 chart 是以 nginx 为例的。

第 1 步:创建 chart

使用 helm create mychart 创建 chart:

helm create mychart
# Creating mychart

查看创建的目录及文件:

mychart/
  Chart.yaml
  values.yaml
  templates/
    deployment.yaml
    hpa.yaml
    ingress.yaml
    serviceaccount.yaml
    service.yaml
    _helpers.tpl          # 可被复用的 chart 模板辅助对象
    NOTES.txt
    tests/
      test-connection.yaml
  charts/

Chart.yaml

内容不多:

apiVersion: v2
name: mychart
description: A Helm chart for Kubernetes
type: application
# chart 版本
version: 0.1.0
# nginx 版本
appVersion: "1.16.0"

values.yaml

可以看到,有很多是默认就存在的配置。

  • replicaCount:副本数量
  • image:容器镜像相关
  • serviceAccount:服务账号
  • podAnnotations、podSecurityContext:Pod 相关
  • securityContext:安全上下文
  • service、ingress
  • resources、autoscaling
  • nodeSelector、tolerations、affinity
# Default values for mychart.
# This is a YAML-formatted file.
# Declare variables to be passed into your templates.

replicaCount: 1

image:
  repository: nginx
  pullPolicy: IfNotPresent
  # Overrides the image tag whose default is the chart appVersion.
  tag: ""

imagePullSecrets: []
nameOverride: ""
fullnameOverride: ""

serviceAccount:
  # Specifies whether a service account should be created
  create: true
  # Annotations to add to the service account
  annotations: {}
  # The name of the service account to use.
  # If not set and create is true, a name is generated using the fullname template
  name: ""

podAnnotations: {}

podSecurityContext: {}
  # fsGroup: 2000

securityContext: {}
  # capabilities:
  #   drop:
  #   - ALL
  # readOnlyRootFilesystem: true
  # runAsNonRoot: true
  # runAsUser: 1000

service:
  type: ClusterIP
  port: 80

ingress:
  enabled: false
  className: ""
  annotations: {}
    # kubernetes.io/ingress.class: nginx
    # kubernetes.io/tls-acme: "true"
  hosts:
    - host: chart-example.local
      paths:
        - path: /
          pathType: ImplementationSpecific
  tls: []
  #  - secretName: chart-example-tls
  #    hosts:
  #      - chart-example.local

resources: {}
  # We usually recommend not to specify default resources and to leave this as a conscious
  # choice for the user. This also increases chances charts run on environments with little
  # resources, such as Minikube. If you do want to specify resources, uncomment the following
  # lines, adjust them as necessary, and remove the curly braces after 'resources:'.
  # limits:
  #   cpu: 100m
  #   memory: 128Mi
  # requests:
  #   cpu: 100m
  #   memory: 128Mi

autoscaling:
  enabled: false
  minReplicas: 1
  maxReplicas: 100
  targetCPUUtilizationPercentage: 80
  # targetMemoryUtilizationPercentage: 80

nodeSelector: {}

tolerations: []

affinity: {}

templates 模板文件

_helpers.tpl 模板辅助文件

_helpers.tpl 是一个模板辅助文件,比如最常见的 chart 名称的处理。

{{/*
Expand the name of the chart.
*/}}
{{- define "mychart.name" -}}
{{- default .Chart.Name .Values.nameOverride | trunc 63 | trimSuffix "-" }}
{{- end }}

{{/*

NOTES.txt

1. Get the application URL by running these commands:
{{- if .Values.ingress.enabled }}
{{- range $host := .Values.ingress.hosts }}
  {{- range .paths }}
  http{{ if $.Values.ingress.tls }}s{{ end }}://{{ $host.host }}{{ .path }}

  echo http://$NODE_IP:$NODE_PORT
{{- else if contains "LoadBalancer" .Values.service.type }}
     NOTE: It may take a few minutes for the LoadBalancer IP to be available.
           You can watch the status of by running 'kubectl get --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} svc -w {{ include "mychart.fullname" . }}'
  export SERVICE_IP=$(kubectl get svc --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} {{ include "mychart.fullname" . }} --template "{{"{{ range (index .status.loadBalancer.ingress 0) }}{{.}}{{ end }}"}}")

  export CONTAINER_PORT=$(kubectl get pod --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} $POD_NAME -o jsonpath="{.spec.containers[0].ports[0].containerPort}")
  echo "Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080 to use your application"
  kubectl --namespace {{ .Release.Namespace }} port-forward $POD_NAME 8080:$CONTAINER_PORT
{{- end }}

tests/test-connection.yaml

Chart Test,用于测试验证 chart 是否按预期运行。也可以具体划分下,放在 tests 目录下【这样可以定义更多的 Test,且能更好的与模板隔离开】。

test 放在 templates/ 目录下,其会指定容器并执行特定的任务,任务的定义必须包含测试钩子的注释:"helm.sh/hook": test

test 本质就是一个 Helm 钩子,所以类似于 helm.sh/hook-weighthelm.sh/hook-delete-policy的注释也可用于 test。

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: "{{ include "mychart.fullname" . }}-test-connection"
  labels:
    {{- include "mychart.labels" . | nindent 4 }}
  annotations:
    "helm.sh/hook": test
spec:
  containers:
    - name: wget
      image: busybox
      command: ['wget']
      args: ['{{ include "mychart.fullname" . }}:{{ .Values.service.port }}']
  restartPolicy: Never

运行方式:

helm install demo demo --namespace default

# 执行 Chart 测试
helm test demo

第 2 步:检查 chart 格式

helm lint mychart/
# ==> Linting mychart/
# [INFO] Chart.yaml: icon is recommended
# 
# 1 chart(s) linted, 0 chart(s) failed

第 3 步:模拟运行

helm install 时添加 – dry-run,即可模拟运行。命令如下:

helm install --debug --dry-run goodly-guppy ./mychart

  kubectl --namespace default port-forward $POD_NAME 8080:$CONTAINER_PORT

模拟运行或实际运行符合预期后,即可打包上传到仓库了。

第 4 步:打包并上传到仓库

打包并上传

先进行打包,打包后手动将 mychart-0.1.0.tgz 上传到 chart 仓库。

# 第 1 步:打包:未做签名哦
helm package mychart/
# Successfully packaged chart and saved it to: /home/userlocal/mychart-0.1.0.tgz

# 第 2 步:移动到 mychart/:不移动的话,后面生成的 index.yaml 是空的!!!
mv mychart-0.1.0.tgz mychart/

生成 index.yaml 并上传

生成 index.yaml 有两种方式:

  • 直接生成,index.yaml 里只有一个 chart
  • 合并生产,根据现有仓库的 index.yaml,添加当前 chart 进去

生成仅一个 chart 的 index.yaml

命令如下:

# 生成 index.yaml 
helm repo index mychart/ --url http://nexus.hengtiansoft.space/repository/helm-repo/

# 查看 index.yaml
cat mychart/index.yaml 
# apiVersion: v1
# entries:
#   mychart:
#   - apiVersion: v2
#     appVersion: 1.16.0
#     created: "2024-05-27T15:01:22.810201593+08:00"
#     description: A Helm chart for Kubernetes
#     digest: 0a07369207529008da67a724dda35b86b4721b3dfe9dffcabb2ce767c2267b9d
#     name: mychart
#     type: application
#     urls:
#     - http://nexus.hengtiansoft.space/repository/helm-repo/mychart-0.1.0.tgz
#     version: 0.1.0
# generated: "2024-05-27T15:01:22.808723439+08:00"

合并生成 index.yaml

# 跳转到 chart 目录
cd mychart/

# 下载仓库 index.yaml
wget http://nexus.xxx.space/repository/helm-repo/index.yaml

# 合并生成 index.yaml
helm repo index . --merge index.yaml

# 查看合并生成的 index.yaml
cat index.yaml | grep -A 5  mychart
#   mychart:
#   - apiVersion: v2
#     appVersion: 1.16.0
#     created: "2024-05-27T15:09:00.3621419+08:00"
#     description: A Helm chart for Kubernetes
#     digest: 0a07369207529008da67a724dda35b86b4721b3dfe9dffcabb2ce767c2267b9d
#     name: mychart
#     type: application
#     urls:
#     - mychart-0.1.0.tgz
#     version: 0.1.0
#   mysql:
#   - apiVersion: v1
#     appVersion: 8.0.33
#     created: "2023-10-30T02:54:37.437Z"

如果你使用 Nexus 作为 chart 仓库,则直接上传 chart tgz 包,然后 Rebuild Index 即可刷新 index.yaml 文件。
