You can find instructions to deploy Verdaccio on a Kubernetes cluster on the verdaccio/docker-example repository. However, the recommended method to install Verdaccio on a Kubernetes cluster is to use Helm. Helm is a Kubernetes package manager which bring multiple advantages.
Helm
Setup Helm
If you haven't used Helm before, you need to setup the Helm controller called Tiller:
helm init
Install
Deploy the Helm stable/verdaccio chart. In this example we use npm
as release name:
helm install --name npm stable/verdaccio
Deploy a specific version
helm install --name npm --set image.tag=2.6.5 stable/verdaccio
Upgrading Verdaccio
helm upgrade npm stable/verdaccio
Uninstalling
helm del --purge npm
Note: this command delete all the resources, including packages that you may have previously published to the registry.
Custom Verdaccio configuration
You can customize the Verdaccio configuration using a Kubernetes configMap.
Prepare
Copy the existing configuration and adapt it for your use case:
wget https://github.com/verdaccio/verdaccio/blob/master/conf/full.yaml -O config.yaml
Note: Make sure you are using the right path for the storage that is used for persistency:
storage: /verdaccio/storage/data
auth:
htpasswd:
file: /verdaccio/storage/htpasswd
Deploy the configMap
Deploy the configMap
to the cluster
kubectl create configmap verdaccio-config --from-file ./config.yaml
Deploy Verdaccio
Now you can deploy the Verdaccio Helm chart and specify which configuration to use:
helm install --name npm --set customConfigMap=verdaccio-config stable/verdaccio
