Helm chart for Whatspp Business api

WhatsApp Business API

Introduction

This chart bootstraps a single node or multiconnect WhatsApp Business API deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

Some features available in chart comparing to official manifests:

• Ingress resource
• Provides preconfigured database deployment (mysql/postgres)
• Database upgrades runs on any helm release upgrade (post-upgrade hook)
• Might be configured to use shared storages (EFS/NFS/Ceph) for media files
• Cronjob which delete media files by schedule from volume
• Changes admin password after installation (post-install hook)
• Web deployment has liveness Probe using WA_API_KEY

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.9+
• PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure

Installing the Chart

Add repo first:

helm repo add whatsapp https://goodsmileduck.github.io/kubernetes-whatsapp/

To install the chart with the release name whatsapp:

$ helm install whatsapp whatsapp/kubernetes-whatsapp

The command deploys WhatsApp Business API on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The configuration section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

By default helm deploys multiconnect node deployment.

To deploy single node deployment use file values-single.yaml

Tip: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the whatsapp deployment:

$ helm delete --purge whatsapp

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

Configuration

The following table lists the configurable parameters of the WhatsApp chart and their default values.

Parameter	Description	Default
multiconnect	Multiconnect mode. Could be MYSQL or PGSQL	False
db.engine	Database engine	MYSQL
db.host	Hostname to access database	[]

TODO

• Update docs for configuration
• Add Healthcheck for core/web containers
• Update volume configuration
• Add affinitiy support
• Add tests

Config of scripts.repository is missing

Hi Guy,
What kind of image do you have used here?

Thanks.
