# ZooKeeper

[ZooKeeper](https://zookeeper.apache.org/) is a centralized service for maintaining configuration information, naming, providing distributed synchronization, and providing group services. All of these kinds of services are used in some form or other by distributed applications.

## TL;DR

```console
$ helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
$ helm install my-release bitnami/zookeeper
```

## Introduction

This chart bootstraps a [ZooKeeper](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-zookeeper) deployment on a [Kubernetes](http://kubernetes.io) cluster using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.

Bitnami charts can be used with [Kubeapps](https://kubeapps.com/) for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters. This Helm chart has been tested on top of [Bitnami Kubernetes Production Runtime](https://kubeprod.io/) (BKPR). Deploy BKPR to get automated TLS certificates, logging and monitoring for your applications.

## Prerequisites

- Kubernetes 1.12+
- Helm 3.0-beta3+
- PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure

## Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name `my-release`:

```console
$ helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
$ helm install my-release bitnami/zookeeper
```

These commands deploy ZooKeeper on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The [Parameters](#parameters) section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

> **Tip**: List all releases using `helm list`

## Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the `my-release` deployment:

```console
$ helm delete my-release
```

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

## Parameters

The following tables lists the configurable parameters of the ZooKeeper chart and their default values per section/component:

Specify each parameter using the `--set key=value[,key=value]` argument to `helm install`. For example,

```console
$ helm install my-release \
  --set auth.clientUser=newUser \
    bitnami/zookeeper
```

The above command sets the ZooKeeper user to `newUser`.

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

```console
$ helm install my-release -f values.yaml bitnami/zookeeper
```

> **Tip**: You can use the default [values.yaml](values.yaml)

## Configuration and installation details

### [Rolling VS Immutable tags](https://docs.bitnami.com/containers/how-to/understand-rolling-tags-containers/)

It is strongly recommended to use immutable tags in a production environment. This ensures your deployment does not change automatically if the same tag is updated with a different image.

Bitnami will release a new chart updating its containers if a new version of the main container, significant changes, or critical vulnerabilities exist.

### Production configuration

This chart includes a `values-production.yaml` file where you can find some parameters oriented to production configuration in comparison to the regular `values.yaml`. You can use this file instead of the default one.

- Number of ZooKeeper nodes:

```diff
- replicaCount: 1
+ replicaCount: 3
```

- Enable prometheus metrics:

```diff
- metrics.enabled: false
+ metrics.enabled: true
```

### Log level

You can configure the ZooKeeper log level using the `ZOO_LOG_LEVEL` environment variable. By default, it is set to `ERROR` because of each readiness probe produce an `INFO` message on connection and a `WARN` message on disconnection.

## Persistence

The [Bitnami ZooKeeper](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-zookeeper) image stores the ZooKeeper data and configurations at the `/bitnami/zookeeper` path of the container.

Persistent Volume Claims are used to keep the data across deployments. This is known to work in GCE, AWS, and minikube.
See the [Parameters](#parameters) section to configure the PVC or to disable persistence.

### Adjust permissions of persistent volume mountpoint

As the image run as non-root by default, it is necessary to adjust the ownership of the persistent volume so that the container can write data into it.

By default, the chart is configured to use Kubernetes Security Context to automatically change the ownership of the volume. However, this feature does not work in all Kubernetes distributions.
As an alternative, this chart supports using an initContainer to change the ownership of the volume before mounting it in the final destination.

You can enable this initContainer by setting `volumePermissions.enabled` to `true`.

### Data Log Directory

You can use a dedicated device for logs (instead of using the data directory) to help avoiding competition between logging and snaphots. To do so, set the `dataLogDir` parameter with the path to be used for writing transaction logs. Alternatively, set this parameter with an empty string an it result in the log being written to the data directory (Zookeeper's default behavior).

When using a dedicated device for logs, you can use a PVC to persist the logs. To do so, set `persistence.enabled` to `true`. See the [Persistence Parameters](#persistence-parameters) section for more information.

### Setting Pod's affinity

This chart allows you to set your custom affinity using the `affinity` parameter. Find more information about Pod's affinity in the [kubernetes documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/assign-pod-node/#affinity-and-anti-affinity).

As an alternative, you can use of the preset configurations for pod affinity, pod anti-affinity, and node affinity available at the [bitnami/common](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/common#affinities) chart.

## Upgrading

### 6.1.0

This version introduces `bitnami/common`, a [library chart](https://helm.sh/docs/topics/library_charts/#helm) as a dependency. More documentation about this new utility could be found [here](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/common#bitnami-common-library-chart). Please, make sure that you have updated the chart dependencies before executing any upgrade.

### To 6.0.0

[On November 13, 2020, Helm v2 support was formally finished](https://github.com/helm/charts#status-of-the-project), this major version is the result of the required changes applied to the Helm Chart to be able to incorporate the different features added in Helm v3 and to be consistent with the Helm project itself regarding the Helm v2 EOL.

#### What changes were introduced in this major version?

- Previous versions of this Helm Chart use `apiVersion: v1` (installable by both Helm 2 and 3), this Helm Chart was updated to `apiVersion: v2` (installable by Helm 3 only). [Here](https://helm.sh/docs/topics/charts/#the-apiversion-field) you can find more information about the `apiVersion` field.
- The different fields present in the *Chart.yaml* file has been ordered alphabetically in a homogeneous way for all the Bitnami Helm Charts

#### Considerations when upgrading to this version

- If you want to upgrade to this version from a previous one installed with Helm v3, you shouldn't face any issues
- If you want to upgrade to this version using Helm v2, this scenario is not supported as this version doesn't support Helm v2 anymore
- If you installed the previous version with Helm v2 and wants to upgrade to this version with Helm v3, please refer to the [official Helm documentation](https://helm.sh/docs/topics/v2_v3_migration/#migration-use-cases) about migrating from Helm v2 to v3

### To 5.21.0

A couple of parameters related to Zookeeper metrics were renamed or disappeared in favor of new ones:

- `metrics.port` is renamed to `metrics.containerPort`.
- `metrics.annotations` is deprecated in favor of `metrics.service.annotations`.

### To 3.0.0

This new version of the chart includes the new ZooKeeper major version 3.5.5. Note that to perform an automatic upgrade
of the application, each node will need to have at least one snapshot file created in the data directory. If not, the
new version of the application won't be able to start the service. Please refer to [ZOOKEEPER-3056](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-3056)
in order to find ways to workaround this issue in case you are facing it.

### To 2.0.0

Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's statefulsets.
Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 2.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is `zookeeper`:

```console
$ kubectl delete statefulset zookeeper-zookeeper --cascade=false
```

### To 1.0.0

Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed unless you modify the labels used on the chart's deployments.
Use the workaround below to upgrade from versions previous to 1.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is zookeeper:

```console
$ kubectl delete statefulset zookeeper-zookeeper --cascade=false
```
