Installing Helm chart for SonarQube Server's Developer or Enterprise Edition
Once you have customized the Helm chart, you can install it. You can also overwrite Helm chart parameters directly in the installation command (see OpenShift example below).
General installation command
Use the following command to install the latest SonarQube Server Helm chart:
helm repo add sonarqube https://SonarSource.github.io/helm-chart-sonarqube
helm repo update
kubectl create namespace sonarqube
export MONITORING_PASSCODE="yourPasscode"
helm upgrade --install -n sonarqube sonarqube sonarqube/sonarqube --set edition=developer,monitoringPasscode=$MONITORING_PASSCODE- You must explicitly set the
editionparameter to eitherdeveloperorenterprise. - The parameters after
--setcan also be defined in the values.yaml file. - If you want to deploy the SonarQube Server LTA version, you should install the LTA Helm chart, see the Helm chart documentation.
- See Setting up monitoring on Kubernetes for a better way to store the monitoring passcode used to authenticate to the Web API.
Example: installing on OpenShift
The command below:
- Enables OpenShift.
- Deploys a PostgreSQL database for test purposes.
helm repo add sonarqube https://SonarSource.github.io/helm-chart-sonarqube
helm repo update
kubectl create namespace sonarqube
export MONITORING_PASSCODE="yourPasscode"
helm upgrade --install -n sonarqube sonarqube sonarqube/sonarqube \
--set OpenShift.enabled=true \
--set postgresql.securityContext.enabled=false \
--set OpenShift.createSCC=false \
--set postgresql.containerSecurityContext.enabled=false \
--set edition=developer \
--set monitoringPasscode=$MONITORING_PASSCODE
