[Discovery] Figure out how we are going to make Helm charts for our new dev environment #471
Description
As we move towards k8s for development environments, we need Helm charts to run for all of our services. We don't know how we will deal with charts for our non-containerized services.
Acceptance Criteria
- A plan for creating Helm charts (see Implementation Details for some avenues of investigation)
- A ticket or tickets for creating Helm charts in the future.
Implementation Details
- As part of discovery, I ran Kompose on the devstack docker-compose.yml file. This produced a very large number of individual files that seem to contain too much boilerplate. It would be good to get the opinions of anyone with more experience with Helm charts (maybe Tyler on SRE) to review them and see if we can turn them into something usable. temp: results from running kompose on devstack openedx-unsupported/devstack#1192
- Look at the existing Helm charts in the private edx repo called helm-charts
- There's also a community-driven effort to create k8s charts, which are Tutor-based but might be useful: https://github.com/open-craft/tutor-contrib-multi
