SEAWEEDFS - helm chart (2.x+)

Getting Started

Add the helm repo

helm repo add seaweedfs https://seaweedfs.github.io/seaweedfs/helm

Install the helm chart

helm install seaweedfs seaweedfs/seaweedfs

helm install --values=values.yaml seaweedfs seaweedfs/seaweedfs

Info:

  • master/filer/volume are stateful sets with anti-affinity on the hostname, so your deployment will be spread/HA.
  • chart is using memsql(mysql) as the filer backend to enable HA (multiple filer instances) and backup/HA memsql can provide.
  • mysql user/password are created in a k8s secret (secret-seaweedfs-db.yaml) and injected to the filer with ENV.
  • cert config exists and can be enabled, but not been tested, requires cert-manager to be installed.

Prerequisites

Database

leveldb is the default database this only supports one filer replica.

To have multiple filers a external datastore is recommened.

Such as MySQL-compatible database, as specified in the values.yaml at filer.extraEnvironmentVars. This database should be pre-configured and initialized by running:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `filemeta` (
  `dirhash`   BIGINT NOT NULL       COMMENT 'first 64 bits of MD5 hash value of directory field',
  `name`      VARCHAR(766) NOT NULL COMMENT 'directory or file name',
  `directory` TEXT NOT NULL         COMMENT 'full path to parent directory',
  `meta`      LONGBLOB,
  PRIMARY KEY (`dirhash`, `name`)
) DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_bin;

Alternative database can also be configured (e.g. leveldb, postgres) following the instructions at filer.extraEnvironmentVars.

Node Labels

Kubernetes nodes can have labels which help to define which node(Host) will run which pod:

Here is an example:

  • s3/filer/master needs the label sw-backend=true
  • volume need the label sw-volume=true

to label a node to be able to run all pod types in k8s:

kubectl label node YOUR_NODE_NAME sw-volume=true,sw-backend=true

on production k8s deployment you will want each pod to have a different host, especially the volume server and the masters, all pods (master/volume/filer) should have anti-affinity rules to disallow running multiple component pods on the same host.

If you still want to run multiple pods of the same component (master/volume/filer) on the same host please set/update the corresponding affinity rule in values.yaml to an empty one:

affinity: ""

PVC - storage class

On the volume stateful set added support for k8s PVC, currently example with the simple local-path-provisioner from Rancher (comes included with k3d / k3s) https://github.com/rancher/local-path-provisioner

you can use ANY storage class you like, just update the correct storage-class for your deployment.

current instances config (AIO):

1 instance for each type (master/filer+s3/volume)

You can update the replicas count for each node type in values.yaml, need to add more nodes with the corresponding labels if applicable.

Most of the configuration are available through values.yaml any pull requests to expand functionality or usability are greatly appreciated. Any pull request must pass chart-testing.
