# HashiCorp Consul packaged by Bitnami
HashiCorp Consul is a tool for discovering and configuring services in your infrastructure.
[Overview of HashiCorp Consul](https://consul.io)
Trademarks: This software listing is packaged by Bitnami. The respective trademarks mentioned in the offering are owned by the respective companies, and use of them does not imply any affiliation or endorsement.
## TL;DR
```console
helm install my-release oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/consul
```
## Introduction
This chart bootstraps a [HashiCorp Consul](https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami/consul) deployment on a [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io) cluster using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.
Bitnami charts can be used with [Kubeapps](https://kubeapps.dev/) for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters.
Looking to use HashiCorp Consul in production? Try [VMware Application Catalog](https://bitnami.com/enterprise), the enterprise edition of Bitnami Application Catalog.
## Prerequisites
- Kubernetes 1.23+
- Helm 3.8.0+
- PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure
## Installing the Chart
To install the chart with the release name `my-release`:
```console
helm install my-release oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/consul
```
These commands deploy HashiCorp Consul 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. Remove also the chart using `--purge` option:
```console
helm delete --purge my-release
```

```console
helm install my-release --set domain=consul-domain,gossipKey=secretkey oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/consul
```
The above command sets the HashiCorp Consul domain to `consul-domain` and sets the gossip key to `secretkey`.
> NOTE: Once this chart is deployed, it is not possible to change the application's access credentials, such as usernames or passwords, using Helm. To change these application credentials after deployment, delete any persistent volumes (PVs) used by the chart and re-deploy it, or use the application's built-in administrative tools if available.
Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the above parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,
```console
helm install my-release -f values.yaml oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/consul
```
> **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.
### Using custom configuration
This helm chart supports to customize the whole configuration file.
You can specify the Hashicorp Consul configuration using the `configuration` parameter.
In addition to this option, you can also set an external ConfigMap with all the configuration files. This is done by setting the `existingConfigmap` parameter. Note that this will override the previous option.
### Ingress
This chart provides support for Ingress resources. If you have an ingress controller installed on your cluster, such as [nginx-ingress-controller](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/main/bitnami/nginx-ingress-controller) or [contour](https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/main/bitnami/contour) you can utilize the ingress controller to serve your application.
To enable ingress integration, please set `ingress.enabled` to `true`.
#### Hosts
Most likely you will only want to have one hostname that maps to this ASP.NET Core installation. If that's your case, the property `ingress.hostname` will set it. However, it is possible to have more than one host. To facilitate this, the `ingress.extraHosts` object can be specified as an array. You can also use `ingress.extraTLS` to add the TLS configuration for extra hosts.
For each host indicated at `ingress.extraHosts`, please indicate a `name`, `path`, and any `annotations` that you may want the ingress controller to know about.
For annotations, please see [this document](https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/blob/master/docs/user-guide/nginx-configuration/annotations.md). Not all annotations are supported by all ingress controllers, but this document does a good job of indicating which annotation is supported by many popular ingress controllers.
### TLS Secrets
This chart will facilitate the creation of TLS secrets for use with the ingress controller, however, this is not required. There are three common use cases:
- Helm generates/manages certificate secrets
- User generates/manages certificates separately
- An additional tool (like cert-manager) manages the secrets for the application
In the first two cases, one will need a certificate and a key. We would expect them to look like this:
- certificate files should look like (and there can be more than one certificate if there is a certificate chain)
```console
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
MIID6TCCAtGgAwIBAgIJAIaCwivkeB5EMA0GCSqGSIb3DQEBCwUAMFYxCzAJBgNV
...
jScrvkiBO65F46KioCL9h5tDvomdU1aqpI/CBzhvZn1c0ZTf87tGQR8NK7v7
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```
- keys should look like:
```console
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
MIIEogIBAAKCAQEAvLYcyu8f3skuRyUgeeNpeDvYBCDcgq+LsWap6zbX5f8oLqp4
...
wrj2wDbCDCFmfqnSJ+dKI3vFLlEz44sAV8jX/kd4Y6ZTQhlLbYc=
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
```
If you are going to use Helm to manage the certificates, please copy these values into the `certificate` and `key` values for a given `ingress.secrets` entry.
If you are going to manage TLS secrets outside of Helm, please know that you can create a TLS secret (named `consul-ui.local-tls` for example).
Please see [this example](https://github.com/kubernetes/contrib/tree/master/ingress/controllers/nginx/examples/tls) for more information.
#### Enable TLS encryption between servers
You must manually create a secret containing your PEM-encoded certificate authority, your PEM-encoded certificate, and your PEM-encoded private key.
> Take into account that you will need to create a config map with the proper configuration.
If the secret is specified, the chart will locate those files at `/opt/bitnami/consul/certs/`, so you will want to use the below snippet to configure HashiCorp Consul TLS encryption in your config map:
```json
"ca_file": "/opt/bitnami/consul/certs/ca.pem",
"cert_file": "/opt/bitnami/consul/certs/consul.pem",
"key_file": "/opt/bitnami/consul/certs/consul-key.pem",
"verify_incoming": true,
"verify_outgoing": true,
"verify_server_hostname": true,
```
After creating the secret, you can install the helm chart specyfing the secret name using `tlsEncryptionSecretName=consul-tls-encryption`.
### Metrics
The chart can optionally start a metrics exporter endpoint on port `9107` for [prometheus](https://prometheus.io). The data exposed by the endpoint is intended to be consumed by a prometheus chart deployed within the cluster and as such the endpoint is not exposed outside the cluster.
### Adding extra environment variables
In case you want to add extra environment variables (useful for advanced operations like custom init scripts), you can use the `extraEnvVars` property.
```yaml
extraEnvVars:
- name: LOG_LEVEL
value: error
```
Alternatively, you can use a ConfigMap or a Secret with the environment variables. To do so, use the `.extraEnvVarsCM` or the `extraEnvVarsSecret` properties.
### 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/main/bitnami/common#affinities) chart. To do so, set the `podAffinityPreset`, `podAntiAffinityPreset`, or `nodeAffinityPreset` parameters.
### Sidecars and Init Containers
If you have a need for additional containers to run within the same pod as MongoDB&reg;, you can do so via the `sidecars` config parameter. Simply define your container according to the Kubernetes container spec.
```yaml
sidecars:
- name: your-image-name
image: your-image
imagePullPolicy: Always
ports:
- name: portname
containerPort: 1234
```
Similarly, you can add extra init containers using the `initContainers` parameter.
```yaml
initContainers:
- name: your-image-name
image: your-image
imagePullPolicy: Always
ports:
- name: portname
containerPort: 1234
```
## Persistence
The [Bitnami HashiCorp Consul](https://github.com/bitnami/containers/tree/main/bitnami/consul) image stores the HashiCorp Consul data at the `/bitnami` 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`.

## Upgrading
### To 10.0.0
This major release renames several values in this chart and adds missing features, in order to be inline with the rest of assets in the Bitnami charts repository.
Affected values:
- `service.port` renamed as `service.port.http`.
- `service.nodePort` renamed as `service.nodePorts.http`.
- `updateStrategy` changed from String type (previously default to 'rollingUpdate') to Object type, allowing users to configure other updateStrategy parameters, similar to other charts.
### To 9.0.0
[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.
- Move dependency information from the *requirements.yaml* to the *Chart.yaml*
- After running `helm dependency update`, a *Chart.lock* file is generated containing the same structure used in the previous *requirements.lock*
- 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 8.0.0
- Several parameters were renamed or disappeared in favor of new ones on this major version:
- `securityContext.*` is deprecated in favor of `podSecurityContext` and `containerSecurityContext`.
- `replicas` is renamed to `replicaCount`.
- `updateStrategy.type` is renamed to `updateStrategy`.
- `configmap` is renamed to `configuration`.
- Chart labels were adapted to follow the [Helm charts standard labels](https://helm.sh/docs/chart_best_practices/labels/#standard-labels).
- This version also 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/main/bitnami/common#bitnami-common-library-chart). Please, make sure that you have updated the chart dependencies before executing any upgrade.
### To 7.0.0
Consul pods are now deployed in parallel in order to bootstrap the cluster and be discovered.
The field `podManagementPolicy` can't be updated in a StatefulSet, so you need to destroy it before you upgrade the chart to this version.
```console
kubectl delete statefulset consul
helm upgrade <DEPLOYMENT_NAME> oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/consul
```
### To 6.0.0
This release updates the Bitnami Consul container to `1.6.1-debian-9-r6`, which is based on Bash instead of Node.js.
### To 3.1.0
Consul container was moved to a non-root approach. There shouldn't be any issue when upgrading since the corresponding `securityContext` is enabled by default. Both the container image and the chart can be upgraded by running the command below:
```console
helm upgrade my-release oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/consul
```
If you use a previous container image (previous to **1.4.0-r16**) disable the `securityContext` by running the command below:
```console
helm upgrade my-release oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/consul --set securityContext.enabled=false,image.tag=XXX
```
### To 2.0.0
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 2.0.0. The following example assumes that the release name is consul:
```console
kubectl delete statefulset consul --cascade=false
```
