wf install

wf install

Installs a production grade Wayfinder management plane in the cloud

Synopsis

Install Wayfinder and any cloud infrastructure it depends on.

On first run, this will create two files in your current directory - wf-install.yaml and wf-install-secrets.yaml. These contain the values you choose during the install and can be used in future for a non-interactive re-install or upgrade.

You can prepare these files without installing by using --init-only. Note that this will create reserved IP addresses in your cloud provider to enable you to set up DNS - if you decide not to continue, these can be removed using wf install --remove.

You should store these files as appropriate, ensuring that the secrets file is encrypted or provided from a secrets management system. Alternatively, you can provide the secret values using CLI options and discard the wf-install-secrets.yaml file.

For these commands to work, you must be logged into the specific cloud account you wish to install Wayfinder in:

wf install [flags]

Examples


# Install Wayfinder, being prompted for all values - if you have existing wf-install.yaml and
# wf-install-secrets.yaml files in the current directory, these will provide defaults and be updated
# with any changes you make, else new files will be created:
$ wf install

# Prepare (or update) wf-install.yaml and wf-install-secrets.yaml files in the current directory,
# but do not install:
$ wf install --init-only

# Install using a prepared wf-install.yaml and wf-install-secrets.yaml in the current directory
# without prompting (can also be used to upgrade):
$ wf install --non-interactive

# Install using a non-default wf-install.yaml / wf-install-secrets.yaml:
$ wf install --non-interactive --values /path/to/wf-install.yaml --secrets /path/to/wf-install-secrets.yaml

# Alternatively, provide the secrets on the CLI instead of using the secrets file:
$ wf install --non-interactive --values /path/to/wf-install.yaml --idp-client-secret SECRET_VALUE
