Openshift + Helm + Secure Route

Jump to solution

I am new to Helm and am trying to think how to configure a secure route with values.yaml.

Lets say I have templates/myapp-route.yaml which by default is not secure and I would like to use Edge route without passing any certificates.

I can see that helm has an option to enable TLS for Ingress, but I am confused how to enable TLS just by using that or should there be something else that would cover Openshift route?

If I have understood correctly values.yaml is just values you can basically make up from your mind to change or overwrite the values in the templates/myapp-route.yaml -file.

If I enable Edge route in the Openshift, the route.yaml will add the following lines:

spec:
   tls:
     insecureEdgeTermininationPolicy: None
     termination: edge

If values.yaml is just for changing or overwriting values and it can not add anything, how does one add those lines to the templates/myapp-route.yaml -file? I think they dont have any other values which would disable Edge route and TLS.

Hi,

This will depend on your chart you are using. For example, the etherpad chart in the redhat-cop repo:

https://github.com/redhat-cop/helm-charts/blob/main/charts/etherpad/templates/route.yaml

Has a template for creating a route; The addition of the route is controlled by the .route.enabled value, and you can further parameterize the route using other values. This charts does edge/redirect, but does not have any customization- however I think that's fine because those values are likely quite adequate for most cases.

However, for example the Bitnami Wordpress chart:

https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/main/bitnami/wordpress/

, does not seem to have support for enabling routes, and only provides ingress resources.

Cheers,

Álex
