This starter sets up everything you need to get a container\nrunning in Istio correctly the first time.\n\n## Features\n\n* Fastest way to get a new service into the Istio mesh\n* Simplified Istio ingress configuration\n* Simplified Istio port configuration\n* ConfigMap driven by `values.yaml`, to facilitate easy Helm value overriding\n* Creates the following Kubernetes and Istio objects\n  * Service\n  * Deployment\n  * ConfigMap (optional)\n  * VirtualService\n  * DestinationRule\n  * PodDisruptionBudget\n  * HorizontalPodAutoscaler (optional)\n  * ServiceAccount (optional)\n  \n## Installation\n\n* Clone into `$helm-home/starters` or,\n* Install with the [`helm-starter`](https://github.com/salesforce/helm-starter) plugin.\n  * `helm plugin install https://github.com/salesforce/helm-starter.git`\n  * `helm starter fetch https://github.com/salesforce/helm-starter-istio.git`\n\n## Usage\n\nPick the starter you want to use:\n\n* `mesh-service` - creates a Helm chart for a mesh internal service (no ingress).\n* `ingress-service` - creates a Helm chart for sevice exposed through an Istio ingress gateway.\n* `mesh-egress` - creates a Helm chart for configuring mesh egress policies for external systems.\n* `auth-policy` - creates a Helm chart for managing authorization policy within the mesh.\n\n```sh\n# Create a helm chart from the starter\n\u003e helm create NAME --starter helm-starter-istio/[starter-name]\n\n# Deploy the helm chart to kubernetes\n\u003e helm template NAME | kubectl -apply -f -\n```\n\n## Samples\n\nThe `samples` directory contains example `values.yaml` files for installing the\n[Istio Bookinfo](https://istio.io/latest/docs/examples/bookinfo/) sample application.\n\n### Set up Istio\n\nThe samples assume you are running Kubernetes and Istio locally using Docker\nDesktop using the default profile.\n\n```sh\n\u003e istioctl install --set profile=default --set meshConfig.outboundTrafficPolicy.mode=REGISTRY_ONLY -y\n\u003e kubectl label namespace default istio-injection=enabled\n\u003e kubectl apply -f samples/gateway.yaml\n```\n\n### Bookinfo services\n\nTo install the Bookinfo services:\n\n```sh\n\u003e helm template --namespace default -f samples/bookinfo-product/values.yaml ingress-service | kubectl apply -f -\n\u003e helm template --namespace default -f samples/bookinfo-details/values.yaml mesh-service | kubectl apply -f -\n\u003e helm template --namespace default -f samples/bookinfo-reviews/values.yaml mesh-service | kubectl apply -f -\n```\n\nThen navigate to \u003chttp://lvh.me/productpage\u003e.\n\n### Bookinfo mTLS\n\nEnable mTLS authorization policies between the services:\n\n```sh\n\u003e helm template --namespace default -f samples/bookinfo-auth-policy/values.yaml auth-policy | kubectl apply -f -\n```\n\n### Mesh egress\n\nInstall mesh egress configuration:\n\n```sh\n\u003e helm template --namespace default -f samples/egress/values.yaml mesh-egress | kubectl apply -f -\n```\n\nInstall a `curl` pod in Kubernetes so you have a shell to log into to try curl testing\ndifferent egress routes.\n\n```sh\n\u003e kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/istio/istio/master/samples/sleep/sleep.yaml\n```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsalesforce%2Fhelm-starter-istio","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fsalesforce%2Fhelm-starter-istio","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fsalesforce%2Fhelm-starter-istio/lists"}
