# Introduction
|
||
|
||
This is a [Helm](https://helm.sh/) chart for installing Mastodon into a
|
||
Kubernetes cluster. The basic usage is:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
cp values.yaml.template values.yaml
|
||
edit values.yaml # configure required settings
|
||
helm dep update
|
||
helm upgrade --install my-mastodon ./
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This chart has been tested on Helm 3.0.1 and above.
|
||
|
||
# Configuration
|
||
|
||
The variables that _must_ be configured are:
|
||
|
||
- `ingress.hostname`; even if you aren’t using an Ingress, this value is used to
|
||
set `LOCAL_DOMAIN`.
|
||
|
||
- password and keys in the `secrets`, `postgresql`, and `redis` groups; if
|
||
left blank, some of those values will be autogenerated, but will not persist
|
||
across upgrades.
|
||
|
||
- SMTP settings for your mailer in the `smtp` group.
|
||
|
||
# Missing features
|
||
|
||
Currently this chart does _not_ support:
|
||
|
||
- Hidden services
|
||
- S3/Minio/GCS
|
||
- Single Sign-On
|
||
- Swift
|
||
- configurations using `WEB_DOMAIN`
|
||
|
||
# Upgrading
|
||
|
||
Because database migrations are managed as a Job separate from the Rails and
|
||
Sidekiq deployments, it’s possible they will occur in the wrong order. After
|
||
upgrading Mastodon versions, it may sometimes be necessary to manually delete
|
||
the Rails and Sidekiq pods so that they are recreated against the latest
|
||
migration.
