Install Devtron
In this section, we describe on how you can install Helm Dashboard by Devtron without any integrations. Integrations can be added later using Devtron Stack Manager.
helm repo add devtron https://helm.devtron.ai
Note: This installation command will not install CI/CD integration. For CI/CD, refer install Devtron with CI/CD section.
Run the following command to install Helm Dashboard by Devtron:
helm install devtron devtron/devtron-operator \
--create-namespace --namespace devtroncd
To install Devtron on clusters with the multi-architecture nodes (ARM and AMD), append the Devtron installation command with
--set installer.arch=multi-arch.Run the following command to get the dashboard URL:
kubectl get svc -n devtroncd devtron-service -o jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress}'
You will get the result something as shown below:
[test2@server ~]$ kubectl get svc -n devtroncd devtron-service -o jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress}'
[map[hostname:aaff16e9760594a92afa0140dbfd99f7-305259315.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com]]
The hostname
aaff16e9760594a92afa0140dbfd99f7-305259315.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com as mentioned above is the Loadbalancer URL where you can access the Devtron dashboard.You can also do a CNAME entry corresponding to your domain/subdomain to point to this Loadbalancer URL to access it at a custom domain.
Host | Type | Points to |
|---|---|---|
devtron.yourdomain.com | CNAME | aaff16e9760594a92afa0140dbfd99f7-305259315.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com |
When you install Devtron for the first time, it creates a default admin user and password (with unrestricted access to Devtron). You can use that credentials to log in as an administrator.
After the initial login, we recommend you set up any SSO service like Google, GitHub, etc., and then add other users (including yourself). Subsequently, all the users can use the same SSO (let's say, GitHub) to log in to Devtron's dashboard.
The section below will help you understand the process of getting the administrator credentials.
Username:
admin
Password: Run the following command to get the admin password:kubectl -n devtroncd get secret devtron-secret \
-o jsonpath='{.data.ADMIN_PASSWORD}' | base64 -d
Note: If you want to uninstall Devtron or clean Devtron helm installer, refer our uninstall Devtron.
To use the CI/CD capabilities with Devtron, you can Install the Devtron with CI/CD or Devtron with CI/CD along with GitOps (Argo CD).
