Chapter 2. Installing Developer Hub on EKS with the Helm chart When you install the Developer Hub Helm chart in Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), it orchestrates the deployment of a Developer Hub instance, which provides a robust developer platform within the AWS ecosystem. Prerequisites You have an EKS cluster with AWS Application Load Balancer (ALB) add-on installed. For more information, see Application load balancing on Amazon Developer Hub and Installing the AWS Load Balancer Controller add-on . You have configured a domain name for your Developer Hub instance. The domain name can be a hosted zone entry on Route 53 or managed outside of AWS. For more information, see Configuring Amazon Route 53 as your DNS service documentation. You have an entry in the AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) for your preferred domain name. Make sure to keep a record of your Certificate ARN. You have subscribed to registry.redhat.io . For more information, see Red Hat Container Registry Authentication . You have set the context to the EKS cluster in your current kubeconfig . For more information, see Creating or updating a kubeconfig file for an Amazon EKS cluster . You have installed kubectl . For more information, see Installing or updating kubectl . You have installed Helm 3 or the latest. For more information, see Using Helm with Amazon EKS . Procedure Go to your terminal and run the following command to add the Helm chart repository containing the Developer Hub chart to your local Helm registry: helm repo add openshift-helm-charts https://charts.openshift.io/ Create a pull secret using the following command: kubectl create secret docker-registry rhdh-pull-secret \ --docker-server=registry.redhat.io \ --docker-username=<user_name> \ 1 --docker-password=<password> \ 2 --docker-email=<email> 3 1 Enter your username in the command. 2 Enter your password in the command. 3 Enter your email address in the command. The created pull secret is used to pull the Developer Hub images from the Red Hat Ecosystem. Create a file named values.yaml using the following template: global: # TODO: Set your application domain name. host: <your Developer Hub domain name> route: enabled: false upstream: service: # NodePort is required for the ALB to route to the Service type: NodePort ingress: enabled: true annotations: kubernetes.io/ingress.class: alb alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/scheme: internet-facing # TODO: Using an ALB HTTPS Listener requires a certificate for your own domain. Fill in the ARN of your certificate, e.g.: alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/certificate-arn: arn:aws:acm:xxx:xxxx:certificate/xxxxxx alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/listen-ports: '[{"HTTP": 80}, {"HTTPS":443}]' alb.ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: '443' # TODO: Set your application domain name. external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/hostname: <your rhdh domain name> backstage: image: pullSecrets: - rhdh-pull-secret podSecurityContext: # you can assign any random value as fsGroup fsGroup: 2000 postgresql: image: pullSecrets: - rhdh-pull-secret primary: podSecurityContext: enabled: true # you can assign any random value as fsGroup fsGroup: 3000 volumePermissions: enabled: true Run the following command in your terminal to deploy Developer Hub using the latest version of Helm Chart and using the values.yaml file created in the step: helm install rhdh \ openshift-helm-charts/redhat-developer-hub \ [--version 1.4.2] \ --values /path/to/values.yaml Note For the latest chart version, see https://github.com/openshift-helm-charts/charts/tree/main/charts/redhat/redhat/redhat-developer-hub Verification Wait until the DNS name is responsive, indicating that your Developer Hub instance is ready for use.

Commands:
helm repo add openshift-helm-charts https://charts.openshift.io/
create secret docker-registry rhdh-pull-secret --docker-server=registry.redhat.io --docker-username=<user_name> \ 1 --docker-password=<password> \ 2 --docker-email=<email> 3
