Helm Chart Examples

This directory contains examples of Helm charts that can be used to deploy NGINX Gateway Fabric in a Kubernetes cluster.

Prerequisites

  • Helm 3.x

Examples

  • Default - deploys NGINX Gateway Fabric with NGINX OSS with default configuration.
  • NGINX Plus - deploys NGINX Gateway Fabric with NGINX Plus as the data plane. The image is pulled from the NGINX Plus Docker registry, and the imagePullSecretName is the name of the secret to use to pull the image. The secret must be created in the same namespace as the NGINX Gateway Fabric deployment.
  • Experimental - deploys NGINX Gateway Fabric with the Gateway API experimental features enabled and NGINX OSS as the data plane.
  • Experimental with NGINX Plus - deploys NGINX Gateway Fabric with the Gateway API experimental features enabled and NGINX Plus as the data plane. The image is pulled from the NGINX Plus Docker registry, and the imagePullSecretName is the name of the secret to use to pull the image. The secret must be created in the same namespace as the NGINX Gateway Fabric deployment.
  • AWS NLB - deploys NGINX Gateway Fabric with NGINX OSS using a Service of type LoadBalancer to allocate an AWS Network Load Balancer (NLB).
  • Azure - deploys NGINX Gateway Fabric with NGINX OSS using a nodeSelector to deploy the gateway on Linux nodes in an Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster.
  • NodePort - deploys NGINX Gateway Fabric with NGINX OSS using a Service of type NodePort to expose the gateway on a specific port on each node.

Manifests generation

These examples are used to generate the manifests for the NGINX Gateway Fabric located in the deploy directory here.

If you want to generate manifests for a specific example, or need to customize one of the examples, run the following command from the root of the project:

helm template nginx-gateway --namespace nginx-gateway --values examples/helm/<example>/values.yaml charts/nginx-gateway-fabric
