What's in the Chart

By default, this chart installs a highly available ZITADEL deployment.

Install the Chart

Either follow the guide for deploying ZITADEL on Kubernetes or follow one of the example guides:

• Insecure Postgres Example
• Secure Postgres Example
• Insecure Cockroach Example
• Secure Cockroach Example
• Referenced Secrets Example
• Machine User Setup Example

Upgrade from v6

• Now, you have the flexibility to define resource requests and limits separately for the machineKeyWriter, distinct from the setupJob. If you don't specify resource requests and limits for the machineKeyWriter, it will automatically inherit the values used by the setupJob.

• To maintain consistency in the structure of the values.yaml file, certain properties have been renamed. If you are using any of the following properties, kindly review the updated names and adjust the values accordingly:

  Old Value	New Value
  setupJob.machinekeyWriterImage.repository	setupJob.machinekeyWriter.image.repository
  setupJob.machinekeyWriterImage.tag	setupJob.machinekeyWriter.image.tag

Upgrade from v5

• CockroachDB is not in the default configuration anymore. If you use CockroachDB, please check the host and ssl mode in your ZITADEL Database configuration section.

• The properties for database certificates are renamed and the defaults are removed. If you use one of the following properties, please check the new names and set the values accordingly:

  Old Value	New Value
  zitadel.dbSslRootCrt	zitadel.dbSslCaCrt
  zitadel.dbSslRootCrtSecret	zitadel.dbSslCaCrtSecret
  zitadel.dbSslClientCrtSecret	zitadel.dbSslAdminCrtSecret
  -	zitadel.dbSslUserCrtSecret

Uninstalling the Chart

The ZITADEL chart uses Helm hooks, which are not garbage collected by helm uninstall, yet. Therefore, to also remove hooks installed by the ZITADEL Helm chart, delete them manually:

helm uninstall my-zitadel
for k8sresourcetype in job configmap secret rolebinding role serviceaccount; do
    kubectl delete $k8sresourcetype --selector app.kubernetes.io/name=zitadel,app.kubernetes.io/managed-by=Helm
done
