Prerequisites

• Kubernetes cluster must be on the running stage (Kubernetes 1.26+)
• Helm 3.1.0

Installing the Charts

Installing Nginx Ingress Controller

The Ingress is a Kubernetes resource that lets you configure an HTTP load balancer for applications running on Kubernetes, represented by one or more Services. Such a load balancer is necessary to deliver those applications to clients outside of the Kubernetes cluster

The Ingress resource supports the following features:

⦿ Content-based routing:

• Host-based routing: For example, routing requests with the host header foo.example.com to one group of services and the host header bar.example.com to another group.

• Path-based routing: For example, routing requests with the URI that starts with /serviceA to service A and requests with the URI that starts with /serviceB to service B.

⦿ TLS/SSL termination for each hostname, such as foo.example.com.

Before installing Iris-web install the Nginx ingress controller

helm repo add ingress-nginx https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx
helm install my-release ingress-nginx/ingress-nginx -n <Name_Space>

Info: my-release is the name that you choose

Installing Iris Web

Clone this Repository

$ git clone https://github.com/dfir-iris/iris-web.git      

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

$ helm install my-release charts/ --values charts/values.yaml  -n <Name_Space>  

The command deploys iris-web on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration.

Checking Dependencies

To check if Helm and kubectl are installed, run the following command:

make check-dependencies

If any of the dependencies are missing, the corresponding installation command will be executed automatically.

Installing Iris

To install Iris, run the following command:

make install-iris

This will upgrade or install the Iris application using Helm. The installation uses the provided charts/values.yaml file and installs it in the specified namespace.

Replace <name_space> with the desired namespace for the Iris application.

Deleting Iris

To delete the Iris application, run the following command:

make delete-iris

This will delete the Iris application using Helm. The application will be removed from the specified namespace.

Replace <name_space> with the namespace where the Iris application is installed.

Tip

: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Charts

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

$ helm delete my-release -n <Name_Space>
