Seq

Seq is the easiest way for development teams to capture, search and visualize structured log events!

TL;DR;

$ helm install seq

Introduction

This chart bootstraps a Seq deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.9+ with Beta APIs enabled
• PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

$ helm install --name my-release seq

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

Tip

: List all releases using helm list

Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

$ helm delete my-release

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 Seq chart and their default values.

Parameter	Description	Default
image.repository	Image repository	datalust/seq
image.tag	Seq image tag. Possible values listed here.	5.0.832-pre
image.pullPolicy	Image pull policy	IfNotPresent
acceptEULA	Accept EULA	Y
service.type	Kubernetes service type	ClusterIP
service.port	Kubernetes port where service is exposed	5341
persistence.enabled	Use persistent volume to store data	true
persistence.size	Size of persistent volume claim	8Gi
persistence.existingClaim	Use an existing PVC to persist data	nil
persistence.storageClass	Type of persistent volume claim	generic
persistence.accessMode	ReadWriteOnce or ReadOnly	ReadWriteOnce
persistence.subPath	Mount a sub directory of the persistent volume if set	""
resources	CPU/Memory resource requests/limits	Memory: 256Mi, CPU: 100m
nodeSelector	Node labels for pod assignment	{}
affinity	Affinity settings for pod assignment	{}
tolerations	Toleration labels for pod assignment	[]

Some of the parameters above map to the env variables defined in the Seq DockerHub image.

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install. For example,

$ helm install --name my-release \
  --set persistence.size=8Gi \
    seq

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

$ helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml seq

Tip

: You can use the default values.yaml

Persistence

The Seq image stores the Seq data and configurations at the /data path of the container.

By default, the chart mounts a Persistent Volume at this location. The volume is created using dynamic volume provisioning. If a Persistent Volume Claim already exists, specify it during installation.

Existing PersistentVolumeClaim

1. Create the PersistentVolume
2. Create the PersistentVolumeClaim
3. Install the chart

$ helm install --set persistence.existingClaim=PVC_NAME seq
