2. Installing cert-manager¶
With Helm¶
Using Helm is the recommended way to deploy cert-manager. We publish a stable version of the chart to the public charts repository.
You can install the chart with the following command:
$ helm install \
--name cert-manager \
--namespace kube-system \
stable/cert-manager
The default cert-manager configuration is good for the majority of users, but a full list of the available options can be found in the Helm chart README.
Note
If your cluster does not use RBAC (Role Based Access Control), you
will need to disable creation of RBAC resources by adding
--set rbac.create=false
to your helm install
command above.
Note
If you are upgrading from a previous release, please check the upgrading guide for special considerations.
With static manifests¶
As some users may not be able to run Tiller in their own environment, static Kubernetes deployment manifests are provided which can be used to install cert-manager.
You can get a copy of the static manifests from the deploy directory.
