Overview

Note: The kubectl installation method is no longer supported. Please use Helm. If you require a manifest please generate one using Helm.

To generate a Kubernetes manifest from the helm chart:

helm template edgedelta edgedelta/edgedelta \
  --version vX.XX.X \
  --set secretApiKey.value=12345678987654321 \
  --set edApiEndpoint="https://api.edgedelta.com" \
  -n edgedelta > edgedelta-manifest.yaml

Replace the X.XX.X with the version number and 12345678987654321 with your pipeline’s key.

See Helm documentation for more details on using this command.
