Helm Setup

Install Zendrite using the devxy/helm-zendrite Helm chart.

Using OCI:

helm install zendrite oci://codefloe.com/devxy/zendrite

Or using a classic Helm repository:

helm repo add codefloe.com https://codefloe.com/api/packages/devxy/helm
helm install zendrite codefloe.com/zendrite

Create a values.yaml file and configure it to your liking. All possible values can be found in the chart README, but at least you need to configure a server_name:

zendrite_config:
  global:
    server_name: "localhost"

If you are going to use an existing Postgres database, you’ll also need to configure this connection:

zendrite_config:
  global:
    database:
      connection_string: "postgresql://PostgresUser:PostgresPassword@PostgresHostName/ZendriteDatabaseName"
      max_open_conns: 90
      max_idle_conns: 5
      conn_max_lifetime: -1

The chart comes with a dependency on Postgres, which can be installed alongside Zendrite. Enable it in your values.yaml:

postgresql:
  enabled: true # this installs Postgres
  primary:
    persistence:
      size: 1Gi # defines the size for $PGDATA

zendrite_config:
  global:
    server_name: "localhost"

Using this option, the database.connection_string will be set for you automatically.
