Deploying the controller

Issuers

Let's encrypt provides two environments: live and staging. The environment is chosen by creating the appropriate issuer.

Staging

Staging is meant for testing the controller or making sure you can try it out without the fear or exhausting your rate limits while trying it out and it will provide you with certificates signed by Let's Encrypt staging CA, making the certs not trusted!

Live

Live will provide you with trusted certificates signed by Let's Encrypt CA but has lower rate limits. This is what you want when you're done testing/evaluating the controller.

Deployment types

Cluster wide

This deployment will provide certificate management for all namespaces in your cluster. You need elevated (admin) privileges to deploy it.

If you have this repository checked out, deploy it like:

oc apply -fdeploy/cluster-wide/{clusterrole,serviceaccount,issuer-letsencrypt-live,deployment}.yaml
oc create clusterrolebinding openshift-acme --clusterrole=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="$( oc project -q ):openshift-acme" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -

If you want to deploy it directly from GitHub use:

oc apply -fhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/tnozicka/openshift-acme/master/deploy/cluster-wide/{clusterrole,serviceaccount,issuer-letsencrypt-live,deployment}.yaml
oc create clusterrolebinding openshift-acme --clusterrole=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="$( oc project -q ):openshift-acme" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -

Single namespace

This deployment will provide certificate management for the namespace it's deployed to. You have to make sure to give the SA correct permissions but you don't have to be cluster-admin. It works fine with regular user privileges.

If you have this repository checked out, deploy it like:

oc apply -fdeploy/single-namespace/{role,serviceaccount,issuer-letsencrypt-live,deployment}.yaml
oc create rolebinding openshift-acme --role=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="$( oc project -q ):openshift-acme" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -

If you want to deploy it directly from GitHub use:

oc apply -fhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/tnozicka/openshift-acme/master/deploy/single-namespace/{role,serviceaccount,issuer-letsencrypt-live,deployment}.yaml
oc create rolebinding openshift-acme --role=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="$( oc project -q ):openshift-acme" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -

Specific namespaces

This deployment will provide certificate management for the namespace it's deployed to and explicitly specified namespaces. You have to make sure to give the SA correct permissions but you don't have to be cluster-admin. It works fine with regular user privileges.

To set up more namespace the deployment needs extra --namespace=test flag and you need to give the openshift-acme serviceaccount appropriate privileges for the extra namespace, like in the example bellow for the extra namespace test.

If you have this repository checked out, deploy it like:

oc apply -fdeploy/specific-namespaces/{role,serviceaccount,issuer-letsencrypt-live,deployment}.yaml
oc create rolebinding openshift-acme --role=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="$( oc project -q ):openshift-acme" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -
oc create rolebinding openshift-acme --role=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="test:openshift-acme" -n "test" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -

If you want to deploy it directly from GitHub use:

oc apply -fhttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/tnozicka/openshift-acme/master/deploy/specific-namespaces/{role,serviceaccount,issuer-letsencrypt-live,deployment}.yaml
oc create rolebinding openshift-acme --role=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="$( oc project -q ):openshift-acme" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -
oc create rolebinding openshift-acme --role=openshift-acme --serviceaccount="test:openshift-acme" -n "test" --dry-run -o yaml | oc apply -f -
