This is a fork by @lalamove merging the incubator elasticsearch chart found here: https://github.com/kubernetes/charts/tree/master/incubator/elasticsearch together with some open pull requests on https://github.com/clockworksoul/helm-elasticsearch

Features

• RBAC support
• TLS support using Kubernetes certificate API
• Elasticsearch Curator (to prune old indicies)
• Install Elasticsearch Addons through init container
• Compatible with any vanilla elasticsearch install
• Latest version of Elasticsearch in an Alpine image (blacktop/elasticsearch)

Deploying with Helm

Read the comments in values.yaml and customise them to suit your needs. The sizes and resource limits are suitable for a minikube deploy. Production deploys will require significantly more resources. With Helm properly installed and configured, standing up a complete cluster is almost trivial:

$ git clone https://github.com/lalamove/helm-elasticsearch.git elasticsearch
$ helm install elasticsearch

Enabling TLS

If you enable TLS you need to keep two things in mind. First, make sure the clusterDomain is correct. And second, make sure you approve the certificate requests by using kubectl certificate approve ...
