vim values.yaml # Edit to enable persistent storage
helm install gitea cdrage/gitea -f values.yaml
```
### Database Configuration
By default, we will launch a Mariadb database:
```yaml
mariadb:
enabled: true
```
To use an external database, disable the in-pod database and fill in the "externalDB" values:
```yaml
mariadb:
enabled: false
#Connect to an external database
externalDB:
dbUser: "postgres"
dbPassword: "<MY_PASSWORD>"
dbHost: "db-service-name.namespace.svc.cluster.local" # or some external host
dbPort: "5432"
dbDatabase: "gitea"
```
## Persistent Data
By default, persistent data is not enabled and thus you'll have to enable it from within the `values.yaml`.
Unless otherwise set to true, data will be deleted when the Pod is restarted.
To prevent data loss, we will enable persistent data.
First, enable persistency:
```yaml
persistence:
enabled: true
```
If you wish for helm **NOT** to replace data when re-deploying (updating the chart), add the `resource-policy` annotation:
```yaml
persistence:
annotations:
"helm.sh/resource-policy": keep
```
To use a previously created PVC / volume, use the following:
```yaml
existingGiteaClaim: gitea-gitea
```
## Ingress And External Host/Ports
Gitea requires ports to be exposed for accessibility. The recommended way is using **ingress**, however, you can supply `LoadBalancer` to your values alternatively.
By default, we expose via an ingress:
To expose via an ingress:
```yaml
ingress:
enabled: true
```
To expose the web application this chart will generate an ingress using the ingress controller of choice if specified. If an ingress is enabled services.http.externalHost must be specified. To expose SSH services it relies on either a LoadBalancer or NodePort.
## Upgrading
When upgrading, make sure you have the following enabled:
- Persistency for both mariadb + Gitea
- Using `existingGiteaClaim`
- Due to using the [bitnami/mariadb](https://github.com/helm/charts/tree/master/stable/mariadb) chart, make sure to HARDCODE your passwords within `values.yaml`. Or else you'll be unable to update mariadb
