charts README

The project's README from github.com/bitnami/charts. As one markdown file: README.md.

The Bitnami Library for Kubernetes

Popular applications, provided by Bitnami, ready to launch on Kubernetes using Kubernetes Helm.

TL;DR

helm install my-release oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/<chart>

Why use Bitnami Secure Images?

Those are hardened, minimal CVE images built and maintained by Bitnami. Bitnami Secure Images are based on the cloud-optimized, security-hardened enterprise OS Photon Linux. Why choose BSI images?

Each image comes with valuable security metadata. You can view the metadata in our public catalog here. Note: Some data is only available with commercial subscriptions to BSI.

If you are looking for our previous generation of images based on Debian Linux, please see the Bitnami Legacy registry.

Vulnerabilities scanner

Each Helm chart contains one or more containers. Those containers use images provided by Bitnami through its test & release pipeline and whose source code can be found at bitnami/containers.

As part of the container releases, the images are scanned for vulnerabilities, here you can find more info about this topic.

Since the container image is an immutable artifact that is already analyzed, as part of the Helm chart release process we are not looking for vulnerabilities in the containers but running different verifications to ensure the Helm charts work as expected, see the testing strategy defined at TESTING.md.

Before you begin

Prerequisites

Setup a Kubernetes Cluster

The quickest way to set up a Kubernetes cluster to install Bitnami Charts is by following the "Bitnami Get Started" guides for the different services:

For setting up Kubernetes on other cloud platforms or bare-metal servers refer to the Kubernetes getting started guide.

Install Helm

Helm is a tool for managing Kubernetes charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources.

To install Helm, refer to the Helm install guide and ensure that the helm binary is in the PATH of your shell.

Using Helm

Once you have installed the Helm client, you can deploy a Bitnami Helm Chart into a Kubernetes cluster.

Please refer to the Quick Start guide if you wish to get running in just a few commands, otherwise, the Using Helm Guide provides detailed instructions on how to use the Helm client to manage packages on your Kubernetes cluster.

这是干什么的?这是 Bitnami 的 Helm chart 库:一些现成的软件包,不用手写 YAML,只需几条 helm 命令就能在 Kubernetes 集群上部署热门应用。
这是一个应用,还是一整套应用目录?是一个目录。仓库里包含很多 chart,每个应用对应一个,每个 chart 都是一组预先配置好的 Kubernetes 资源包,用 Helm 就能安装。
怎么部署其中一个 chart?先安装 Helm 客户端,然后运行:helm install my-release oci://registry-1.docker.io/bitnamicharts/ 。更新也是同样的方式,用 helm upgrade 即可。
集群需要满足什么条件才能安装这些 chart?需要一个 1.23 或更新版本的 Kubernetes 集群,以及 3.8.0 或更新版本的 Helm,并且 helm 命令要在你的 shell PATH 里。
这里的东西都是免费的,还是有一部分要付费?chart 本身是免费的,但 Bitnami Secure Images 相关的一些安全元数据是商业内容——公开目录中的某些数据需要付费的 BSI 订阅才能获取。
这些 chart 部署的容器镜像和上游官方原版镜像有什么不同?它们以 Bitnami Secure Images 的形式发布:基于 Photon Linux 操作系统的加固、低 CVE 精简构建,通过 VEX/KEV/EPSS 进行漏洞分诊,提供 FIPS 和 STIG 合规选项,并带有 SBOM 和 in-toto 供应链证明。
容器镜像是在这个仓库里构建的吗?不是——镜像来自单独的 bitnami/containers 仓库,由 Bitnami 的测试和发布流水线产出;这个仓库只按照 TESTING.md 中描述的策略,验证 chart 是否按预期工作。
Bitnami 镜像以前不是基于 Debian 的吗?那些镜像去哪了?以前基于 Debian 的那一代镜像仍然存在,但已迁移到单独的 Bitnami Legacy 仓库(registry);现在的 chart 对应的是基于 Photon 的加固版 Secure Images。
我还没有 Kubernetes 集群——该从哪里入手?README 里链接了 Bitnami 针对 TKG、Tanzu Mission Control、Azure Marketplace、EKS 和 GKE 的入门指南;如果是其他云或裸机,它指向 Kubernetes 官方的入门指南。
