heimdall2-helm

A helm chart for Heimdall2 project found at https://github.com/mitre/heimdall2.

Requirements

Written for Helm 3.

Example use

You can clone this repo, enter the repository folder and then execute something like the start_heimdall2.sh:

./start_heimdall2.sh

The script will spin up Heimdall2 using the example values.yaml values file. You will need to provide your own if you want to configure other settings, and ingress, etc. Look at the values.yaml file for what to place in your own.

To generate the postgres user's password consider using

openssl rand -hex 33

And to to generate a value for JWS_SECRET consider using

openssl rand -hex 64

The start_heimdall.sh script generates some of these values for you, and demonstrates how to pass in values from the cli instead of using the values.yaml file via the --set flag.

To install via MITRE chart repository

helm repo add heimdall2-helm https://mitre.github.io/heimdall2-helm/
helm repo update
helm search repo heimdall2
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mitre/heimdall2-helm/main/values.yaml
vi values.yaml # configure values.yaml for your organization
helm install heimdall heimdall2-helm/heimdall --namespace heimdall --create-namespace -f values.yaml
watch -n 15 kubectl get pods -n heimdall

Give it time for Heimdall2 to come fully up. It has to "migrate" data, and the frontend site needs to build. It takes a few minutes.

Accessing Heimdall2

If you've spun up Heimdall2 using the start_heimdall2.sh script, you can access it in your browser via exposing via kubectl port-forward like so

kubectl port-forward -n heimdall service/heimdall 8081:3000

then open in your browser http://localhost:8081

Or configure an ingress via your values file by adding an ingress configuration under heimdall in your values file likes so:

heimdall:
  ingress:
    enabled: true
    annotations:
      traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/router.entrypoints: web
    hosts:
      - host: heimdall.example.com
        paths:
          -  "/"
    tls: []

This example uses Traefik to expose the ingress. Configuring Traefik is out of scope of this readme.
