# WordPress
[WordPress](https://wordpress.org/) is one of the most versatile open source content management systems on the market. A publishing platform for building blogs and websites.
## TL;DR;
```console
$ helm install stable/wordpress
```
## Introduction
This chart bootstraps a [WordPress](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-wordpress) deployment on a [Kubernetes](http://kubernetes.io) cluster using the [Helm](https://helm.sh) package manager.
It also packages the [Bitnami MariaDB chart](https://github.com/kubernetes/charts/tree/master/stable/mariadb) which is required for bootstrapping a MariaDB deployment for the database requirements of the WordPress application.
## Prerequisites
- Kubernetes 1.4+ with Beta APIs enabled
- PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure
## Installing the Chart
To install the chart with the release name `my-release`:
```console
$ helm install --name my-release stable/wordpress
```
The command deploys WordPress on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The [configuration](#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:
```console
$ helm delete my-release
```
The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.
## Configuration
The following tables lists the configurable parameters of the WordPress chart and their default values.
| Parameter | Description | Default |
| ------------------------------- | ------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| `image` | WordPress image | `bitnami/wordpress:{VERSION}` |
| `imagePullPolicy` | Image pull policy | `IfNotPresent` |
| `wordpressUsername` | User of the application | `user` |
| `wordpressPassword` | Application password | _random 10 character long alphanumeric string_ |
| `wordpressEmail` | Admin email | `user@example.com` |
| `wordpressFirstName` | First name | `FirstName` |
| `wordpressLastName` | Last name | `LastName` |
| `wordpressBlogName` | Blog name | `User's Blog!` |
| `allowEmptyPassword` | Allow DB blank passwords | `yes` |
| `smtpHost` | SMTP host | `nil` |
| `smtpPort` | SMTP port | `nil` |
| `smtpUser` | SMTP user | `nil` |
| `smtpPassword` | SMTP password | `nil` |
| `smtpUsername` | User name for SMTP emails | `nil` |
| `smtpProtocol` | SMTP protocol [`tls`, `ssl`] | `nil` |
| `mariadb.mariadbRootPassword` | MariaDB admin password | `nil` |
| `mariadb.mariadbDatabase` | Database name to create | `bitnami_wordpress` |
| `mariadb.mariadbUser` | Database user to create | `bn_wordpress` |
| `mariadb.mariadbPassword` | Password for the database | _random 10 character long alphanumeric string_ |
| `serviceType` | Kubernetes Service type | `LoadBalancer` |
| `healthcheckHttps` | Use https for liveliness and readiness | `false` |
| `ingress.enabled` | Enable ingress controller resource | `false` |
| `ingress.hostname` | URL to address your WordPress installation | `wordpress.local` |
| `ingress.tls` | Ingress TLS configuration | `[]` |
| `persistence.enabled` | Enable persistence using PVC | `true` |
| `persistence.storageClass` | PVC Storage Class | `nil` (uses alpha storage class annotation) |
| `persistence.accessMode` | PVC Access Mode | `ReadWriteOnce` |
| `persistence.size` | PVC Storage Request | `10Gi` | |
The above parameters map to the env variables defined in [bitnami/wordpress](http://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-wordpress). For more information please refer to the [bitnami/wordpress](http://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-wordpress) image documentation.
Specify each parameter using the `--set key=value[,key=value]` argument to `helm install`. For example,
```console
$ helm install --name my-release \
--set wordpressUsername=admin,wordpressPassword=password,mariadb.mariadbRootPassword=secretpassword \
stable/wordpress
```
The above command sets the WordPress administrator account username and password to `admin` and `password` respectively. Additionally it sets the MariaDB `root` user password to `secretpassword`.
Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the above parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,
```console
$ helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml stable/wordpress
```
> **Tip**: You can use the default [values.yaml](values.yaml)
## Persistence
The [Bitnami WordPress](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-wordpress) image stores the WordPress data and configurations at the `/bitnami` path of the container.
Persistent Volume Claims are used to keep the data across deployments. This is known to work in GCE, AWS, and minikube.
See the [Configuration](#configuration) section to configure the PVC or to disable persistence.
## Ingress
This chart provides support for Ingress resource. If you have available an Ingress Controller such as Nginx or Traefik you maybe want to set up `ingress.enabled` to true and choose a `ingress.hostname` for the URL. Then, you should be able to access the installation using that address.
