jaeger-operator

jaeger-operator is a Kubernetes operator.

Install

$ helm install stable/jaeger-operator

Introduction

This chart bootstraps a jaeger-operator deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

Prerequisites

• Kubernetes 1.8+ with Beta APIs enabled

Installing the Chart

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

$ helm install --name my-release stable/jaeger-operator

The command deploys jaeger-operator 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 jaeger-operator chart and their default values.

Parameter	Description	Default
image.repository	Controller container image repository	jaegertracing/jaeger-operator
image.tag	Controller container image tag	1.11.0
image.pullPolicy	Controller container image pull policy	IfNotPresent
rbac.create	All required roles and rolebindings will be created	true
serviceAccount.create	Service account to use	true
serviceAccount.name	Service account name to use. If not set and create is true, a name is generated using the fullname template	``
resources	K8s pod resorces	None
nodeSelector	Node labels for pod assignment	{}
tolerations	Toleration labels for pod assignment	[]
affinity	Affinity settings for pod assignment	{}

Specify each parameter you'd like to override using a YAML file as described above in the installation section.

You can also specify any non-array parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install. For example,

$ helm install stable/jaeger-operator --name my-release \
    --set rbac.create=false

After the Helm Installation

Creating a new Jaeger instance

The simplest possible way to install is by creating a YAML file like the following:

apiVersion: jaegertracing.io/v1
kind: Jaeger
metadata:
  name: simplest

The YAML file can then be used with kubectl:

$ kubectl apply -f simplest.yaml

Creating a new Jaeger with ElasticSearch

To do that you need to have an ElasticSearch installed in your Kubernetes cluster or install one using the Helm Chart available for that.

After that just deploy the following manifest:

# setup an elasticsearch with `make es`
apiVersion: jaegertracing.io/v1
kind: Jaeger
metadata:
  name: simple-prod
spec:
  strategy: production
  storage:
    type: elasticsearch
    options:
      es:
        server-urls: http://elasticsearch:9200
        username: elastic
        password: changeme

The YAML file can then be used with kubectl:

$ kubectl apply -f simple-prod.yaml
