Deployment

[phette23]

Update 2024-10-04: Mark is working on deployment and leaning towards not using helm. Below are my notes on getting the Invenio helm chart to work.

---

See helm-invenio but helm repo add doesn't work yet. We'll write our own values.yml file. Deployments will be like cat values.yaml | envsubst | helm install --namespace $NS invenio /path/to/helm-invenio/charts/invenio -f - and we populate the env with our secrets.

Local issues with minikube:

• opensearch pods readiness probe failing (try disabling them) — problem went away on its own!
• image architecture mismatch for invenio pods (build my own)
  • add image pull secret
  • script to tag and push image to Artifact Registry (see below)
• exec error on invenio containers (probably from building on MacOS? try to explicitly specify arch)

General outline:

• create deploy dir for main script and values file
• ci.sh script for everything like cca.edu does
• scripts builds and pushes to AR
• script does a helm install/upgrade
• .gitlab-ci.yml with tasks for builds and helm deploys

I'm unable to get the helm chart running locally on minikube. The base almalinux image from CERN is available for arm64 and amd64 architectures docker manifest inspect --verbose registry.cern.ch/inveniosoftware/almalinux:latest. Minikube runs as aarch64 minikube ssh 'uname -m' but for some reason even the arm64 image does not run:

¿ minikube ssh
docker@minikube:~$ docker pull registry.cern.ch/inveniosoftware/almalinux:latest
docker@minikube:~$ docker inspect registry.cern.ch/inveniosoftware/almalinux:latest | grep Architecture
        "Architecture": "arm64",
docker@minikube:~$ docker run -it registry.cern.ch/inveniosoftware/almalinux:latest sh
exec /usr/bin/sh: exec format error

I've tried using a qemu driver for minikube instead but the problem persists.
