Install guide for kubernetes

This guide will deploy jitsi in the most simple way: as several containers in a single pod. This is enough to start in case your hardware is enough. If you need to scale components to severa instance, you'll have to modify it to use several services and pods.

Create a namespace to deploy jitsi to:

kubectl create namespace jitsi

Add the secret with secret values (replace ... with some random strings):

kubectl create secret generic jitsi-config -n jitsi --from-literal=JICOFO_COMPONENT_SECRET=... --from-literal=JICOFO_AUTH_PASSWORD=... --from-literal=JVB_AUTH_PASSWORD=...

Deploy the service to listen for JVB UDP traffic on all cluster nodes port 30300:

kubectl create -f jvb-service.yaml

If PodSecurityPolicies were enabled, we would then install a PSP and Role for jitsi:

kubectl create -f rbac.yaml

Now we can deploy the rest of the application. First modify the DOCKER_HOST_ADDRESS env value in deployment.yaml to point to one of nodes in your cluster (or load-balancer for all nodes if you have one), and then deploy it:

kubectl create -f deployment.yaml

To expose the webapp, we can use Ingress (replace the host value with your actual hostname):

kubectl create -f web-service.yaml

You can either use "https" or "http" service port, depending on whether your ingress allows self-signed certs.
