Spring Boot Helm starter

This project provides a simple way to generate Kubernetes descriptors using Helm, in order to deploy a Spring Boot app. Using a single command, you create YAML files for your app: you just need to customize these descriptors to set your container image, and you’re done.

The generated descriptors support these features:

• app deployment with healthchecks & replication
• Spring Cloud Kubernetes support (ConfigMap, Secret, service discovery, client-side load balancing)
• default ConfigMap configuration
• Prometheus support

Using this Helm starter you don’t need to write YAML files anymore!

How to use it?

Install this repository in your local Helm starter repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/alexandreroman/spring-boot-helm-starter.git $HOME/.helm/starters/spring-boot

Create an Helm chart for your app:

$ helm create --starter=spring-boot myapp
Creating myapp

Edit generated file myapp/values.yml and set your Docker image:

image:
  repository: myrepo/myapp

As you can see, you can also set some properties in this file, such as ConfigMap entries.

You are now ready to deploy your app using Helm:

$ helm install --namespace myns myapp
