Install Uitsmijter on Kubernetes

Here are the steps to install Uitsmijter on Kubernetes:

• Make sure the following requirements are met:
  • Kubernetes is up and running.
  • Traefik is up and running.
  • Your cluster can obtain valid certificates for Ingresses, e.g. with cert-manager.
• Ensure that you have the following authorizations in the Kubernetes cluster:
  • Permissions to deploy ClusterRole, ClusterRoleBinding and ServiceAccount.
  • Permissions to deploy CustomResourceDefinition.
  • Permissions to deploy various Kubernetes resources, including Namespace, ConfigMap, Secret, Service, Deployment, StatefulSet, Ingress and HorizontalPodAutoscaler.
  • Permissions to set up Traefik middlewares.
  • Permissions to create, list and edit CustomResources (client and tenant) in your namespaces.
• Download the file values.yaml from the Uitsmijter Helm chart.
• Customize the values in the file values.yaml to your needs.

Add Uitsmijter Helm repository:

$ helm repo add uitsmijter https://charts.uitsmijter.io/

Update Helm:

$ helmet update

Install the Uitsmijter Helm chart:

$ helm install uitsmijter uitsmijter/uitsmijter

Make sure that your user has the permissions to edit clients and tenants in your namespaces.

Create a new namespace for your tenant:

$ kubectl create ns <tenant-name>

Define your tenant in a YAML file. Make sure you specify valid provider scripts that connect to your user authentication service.

Apply the tenant to the namespace you created:

$ kubectl apply -n <tenant-name> <tenant-yaml-file>

Define your client in a YAML file. Make sure that the tenant name matches the tenant you created and that the UUID “ident” is unique in the Uitsmijter universe in your cluster.

Apply the client to the namespace:

$ kubectl apply -n <tenant-name> <client-yaml-file>

Check the auth server logs to ensure that the tenant and client have been loaded without errors:

kubectl logs -n uitsmijter -l app=uitsmijter -l component=authserver

Once you have completed these steps, you should have successfully installed Uitsmijter on your Kubernetes cluster. You can now start implementing OAuth login flows in your applications.
