I was inspired by my success in optimizing the Docker image (https://codeberg.org/fitpub/fitpub/pulls/340) and have now decided to tackle a slightly more complex task.
Sooo. I'm working on a Helm chart for @fitpub
Right now it's in my personal repository. I'm gradually building it based on the existing Kubernetes manifests from the project, adding proper configuration, PV support, and secrets management.
I'd like to bring CNPG as well, since I do very like it, but maybe later.
Next steps:
- Finish the main configuration
- Test it on Infomaniak KaaS (the cheapest Swiss-managed Kubernetes)
- Once it's stable, I'll try to contribute it back to the main project on Codeberg.
Repo (work in progress): https://github.com/oliinykdm/fitpub-helm
