Epinio

Let's see how to run Epinio (docs.epinio.io) in a Kubernetes cluster.

Epinio is an application Platform. It deploys on Kubernetes and allows application developers and operators to work together without stepping on each others work.

CLI

Download epinio (Epinio CLI).

Configuration

We'll use the official Helm chart:

• values.yaml

Deployment

💡 cert-manager must be installed

# adds Helm chart repository
helm repo add epinio https://epinio.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update

# installs
helm upgrade --install epinio epinio/epinio --namespace epinio --create-namespace

# uninstalls
helm uninstall epinio -n epinio
kubectl delete ns epinio

Examples

Kubernetes cluster with NGINX Ingress Controller, cert-manager and Let's Encrypt issuers

# retrieves public IP
NGINX_PUBLIC_IP=`kubectl get service -n ingress-nginx ingress-nginx-controller --output jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].ip}'`

# installs on a cluster
helm upgrade --install epinio epinio/epinio --namespace epinio --create-namespace \
  --set global.domain=${NGINX_PUBLIC_IP}.sslip.io \
  --set global.tlsIssuer=letsencrypt-prod \
  --set global.tlsIssuerEmail=<my_email_address>

# logs in Epinio (default password is "password")
epinio login -u admin 'https://epinio.${NGINX_PUBLIC_IP}.sslip.io'

# displays instance information
epinio settings show
