A juju charm deploying and managing Discourse on Kubernetes, configurable to use a PostgreSQL backend.
Supported features include SAML authentication, scaling to multiple pods and the storage of files and images in S3. This charm also offers seamless Discourse version upgrades, initiated by switching to an image with a newer version of Discourse than the one currently deployed.
For details on using Kubernetes with Juju see here, and for details on using Juju with MicroK8s for easy local testing see here.
To deploy into a Juju K8s model:
juju deploy postgresql-k8s
juju deploy redis-k8s
juju deploy discourse-k8s
juju relate discourse-k8s postgresql-k8s:db-admin
juju relate discourse-k8s redis-k8s
Then expose Discourse via the Kubernetes ingress:
juju deploy nginx-ingress-integrator
juju relate discourse-k8s nginx-ingress-integrator
Once the deployment is completed and the "discourse" workload state in juju status has changed to "active" you can add discourse-k8s to /etc/hosts
with the IP address of your Kubernetes cluster's ingress (127.0.0.1 if you're
using MicroK8s) and visit http://discourse-k8s in a browser and log in to
your Discourse instance.
