Installation on Kubernetes

Hey there,

I would like to ask you if there is some Developer Version of a taiga helm-Chart for a Kubernetes deployment.

We’re running on a k8s environment only and tried to use the GitHub - nemonik/taiga-helm: A helm chart for Taiga
project to evaluate the taiga solution, but after a few hours of debugging and hacking, we’ve decided to fail on this track :frowning: (Duplicate Volume Mounts, missing EnvironmentVariables for Postgres data paths, etc)

I would love to try taiga onprem, can someone help ?

greetings
Sven

Hi, @schmandforke

There is no official version right now but I recommend you try this one.

Will this type of a self-hosted option be part of the Taiga Next you have been working on?

Of course, it’s something that is on our roadmap for when we work on the installation system.

Don’t know if there are more people who run or try to run Taiga on Kubernetes. The mentioned helm chart did help me to get going, still I think people should be ready to do a bit of tweaking to their needs.

I’ll try to capture my tweaks and provide them in the PR here: Small tweaks by johbo · Pull Request #2 · jmferrer/taiga-docker · GitHub so that others have a chance to find them and pick things if there is anything useful in their for their needs.

Working for a DevOps Company that does a lot of self hosting, I had to set up a single node cluster running taiga. I stumbled upon a few issues, but following the docker compose files and the referred pull request by johbo, the team and I were able to set up a running instance.

Usually we package our findings in a clojure framework we call c4k, which generates all required resources. The linked gitlab repo contains these resource files under src/main/resources/taiga:

However, these deployments assume the existence of another postgres deployment.
This can be found under src/main/resources/postgres here:

Hope this provides some value to whoever tries something simillar :slight_smile:

its really so complicated to install on Kube
I installed the application with the Redis Rabbitmq Postgres Events front and back components.
The connection between Rabbitmq and the back never initiates, even if you use the service name or cluster FQDN
