This is my first official repo in Github and I am accepting the Digital Ocean Kubernetes Challenge
Kubernetes does not provide an internal container registry but it is often useful to add one. There are many projects which enable you to deploy an internal container registry, such as Harbour or Trow.
Install Kubernetes command-line tool kubectl and DigitalOcean CLI tool doctl in your local machine.
DO offer clean UI and simplify the process to bring up a kubernetes cluster. Login to DO dashboard, and start your kubernetes journey.
Copy and paste the command from into your terminal to connect to your kubernetes cluster.
Once the k8s cluster created, you can verify it from DO dashboard, or from terminal.
kubectl get nodes
Output
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION
pool-harbor-u6n58 Ready <none> 6m52s v1.21.5
pool-harbor-u6n5c Ready <none> 6m55s v1.21.5
pool-harbor-u6n5u Ready <none> 6m48s v1.21.5
Install Helm in my local machine.
brew install helm
The real challenge start here. I am using Bitnami Helm chart to deploy harbor.
Add Bitnami repo to Helm.
helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
Output
% helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
"bitnami" has been added to your repositories
Create and edit harbor yaml file.
helm show values bitnami/harbor > harbor-values.yaml
If you own a domain name, edit the externalURL and commonName in harbor-values.yaml to your designated subdomain for harbor.
externalURL: https://core.harbor.domain
commonName: 'core.harbor.domain'
Install harbor with helm
helm install harbor -f harbor-values.yaml bitnami/harbor -n harbor --create-namespace
Output
NAME: harbor
LAST DEPLOYED: Sun Dec 26 11:05:15 2021
NAMESPACE: harbor
STATUS: deployed
REVISION: 1
TEST SUITE: None
NOTES:
CHART NAME: harbor
CHART VERSION: 11.1.6
APP VERSION: 2.4.1
** Please be patient while the chart is being deployed **
1. Get the Harbor URL:
NOTE: It may take a few minutes for the LoadBalancer IP to be available.
Watch the status with: 'kubectl get svc --namespace harbor -w harbor'
export SERVICE_IP=$(kubectl get svc --namespace harbor harbor --template "{{ range (index .status.loadBalancer.ingress 0) }}{{.}}{{ end }}")
echo "Harbor URL: http://$SERVICE_IP/"
2. Login with the following credentials to see your Harbor application
echo Username: "admin"
echo Password: $(kubectl get secret --namespace harbor harbor-core-envvars -o jsonpath="{.data.HARBOR_ADMIN_PASSWORD}" | base64 --decode)
Get harbor pods deployment and ensure all pods running.
kubectl get pods -n harbor
Output

Get the external IP with this command,
kubectl get svc -n harbor -w harbor
Output
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
harbor LoadBalancer 10.245.100.223 144.126.241.233 80:31786/TCP,443:30983/TCP,4443:30188/TCP 41m
Create A record in DNS with the EXTERNAL-IP.
I am using Cloudflare to provision a public signed SSL certificate and proxied to harbor. Since I am using LoadBalancer mode to deploy my harbor, it will redirect http to https. Remember to set the SL/TLS encryption mode to Full.
I would like to thank you Digital Ocean again by offering such a great challenge and I can finally get my hands into Kubernetes. Digital Ocean offer a very convenient way for those who want to setup any Kubernetes cluster environment in minutes!
