Installation

Here is a minimal Helm chart usage example to install FleetDM on Kubernetes based on the official Fleet Helm chart and installation documentation:

text

# values.yaml (minimal example)

fleet:
  mysql:
    host: fleet-database-mysql
    port: 3306
    user: fleet
    password: yourpassword
    database: fleet

  redis:
    host: fleet-cache-redis-master
    port: 6379

  imageTag: latest

# Optional: enable ingress
ingress:
  enabled: true
  hosts:
    - host: fleet.yourdomain.com
      paths:
        - /

Minimal install steps

Create a namespace:

bash

kubectl create ns fleet-system

Install required MySQL and Redis with Helm (or provide existing):

bash

helm install fleet-database bitnamicharts/mysql \
  --namespace fleet-system \
  --set auth.username=fleet,auth.password=yourpassword,auth.database=fleet

helm install fleet-cache bitnamicharts/redis \
  --namespace fleet-system \
  --set persistence.enabled=false

Add Fleet Helm repo and install Fleet:

bash

helm repo add fleet https://fleetdm.github.io/fleet/charts/
helm repo update

helm install fleet fleet/fleet \
  --namespace fleet-system \
  --values values.yaml

Check pods to verify Fleet is running:

bash

kubectl get pods -n fleet-system

Access Fleet via the configured ingress host (e.g. https://fleet.yourdomain.com)

This setup uses external MySQL and Redis services installed in the cluster. Adjust credentials and hostnames as needed. You can also configure secrets instead of plain text passwords for production.

This is the minimal typical deployment approach for FleetDM on Kubernetes using Helm. For details and advanced configurations, see the official documentation at FleetDM.
