+# Gerrit replica on Kubernetes
+
+Gerrit is a web-based code review tool, which acts as a Git server. On large setups
+Gerrit servers can see a sizable amount of traffic from git operations performed by
+developers and build servers. The major part of requests are read-only requests
+(e.g. by `git fetch` operations). To take some load of the Gerrit server,
+Gerrit replicas can be deployed to serve read-only requests.
+
+This helm chart provides a Gerrit replica setup that can be deployed on Kubernetes.
+The Gerrit replica is capable of receiving replicated git repositories from a
+Gerrit. The Gerrit replica can then serve authenticated read-only requests.
+
+***note
+Gerrit versions before 3.0 are no longer supported, since the support of ReviewDB
+was removed.
+***
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Helm (>= version 3.0)
+
+    (Check out [this guide](https://docs.helm.sh/using_helm/#quickstart-guide)
+    how to install and use helm.)
+
+- Access to a provisioner for persistent volumes with `Read Write Many (RWM)`-
+  capability.
+
+    A list of applicaple volume types can be found
+    [here](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/persistent-volumes/#access-modes).
+    This project was developed using the
+    [NFS-server-provisioner helm chart](https://github.com/helm/charts/tree/master/stable/nfs-server-provisioner),
+    a NFS-provisioner deployed in the Kubernetes cluster itself. Refer to
+    [this guide](/helm-charts/gerrit-replica/docs/nfs-provisioner.md) of how to
+    deploy it in context of this project.
+
+- A domain name that is configured to point to the IP address of the node running
+  the Ingress controller on the kubernetes cluster (as described
+  [here](http://alesnosek.com/blog/2017/02/14/accessing-kubernetes-pods-from-outside-of-the-cluster/)).
+
+- (Optional: Required, if SSL is configured)
+  A [Java keystore](https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/config-gerrit.html#httpd.sslKeyStore)
+  to be used by Gerrit.
+
+## Installing the Chart
+
+***note
+**ATTENTION:** The value for `ingress.host` is required for rendering
+the chart's templates. The nature of the value does not allow defaults.
+Thus a custom `values.yaml`-file setting this value is required!
+***
+
+To install the chart with the release name `gerrit-replica`, execute:
+
+```sh
+cd $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/helm-charts
+helm install \
+  gerrit-replica \  # release name
+  ./gerrit-replica \  # path to chart
+  -f <path-to-custom-values>.yaml
+```
+
+The command deploys the Gerrit replica on the current Kubernetes cluster. The
+[configuration section](#Configuration) lists the parameters that can be
+configured during installation.
+
+The Gerrit replica requires the replicated `All-Projects.git`- and `All-Users.git`-
+repositories to be present in the `/var/gerrit/git`-directory. The `gerrit-init`-
+InitContainer will wait for this being the case. A way to do this is to access
+the Gerrit replica pod and to clone the repositories from the primary Gerrit (Make
+sure that you have the correct access rights do so.):
+
+```sh
+kubectl exec -it <gerrit-replica-pod> -c gerrit-init ash
+gerrit@<gerrit-replica-pod>:/var/tools$ cd /var/gerrit/git
+gerrit@<gerrit-replica-pod>:/var/gerrit/git$ git clone "http://gerrit.com/All-Projects" --mirror
+Cloning into bare repository 'All-Projects.git'...
+gerrit@<gerrit-replica-pod>:/var/gerrit/git$ git clone "http://gerrit.com/All-Users" --mirror
+Cloning into bare repository 'All-Users.git'...
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+The following sections list the configurable values in `values.yaml`. To configure
+a Gerrit replica setup, make a copy of the `values.yaml`-file and change the
+parameters as needed. The configuration can be applied by installing the chart as
+described [above](#Installing-the-chart).
+
+In addition, single options can be set without creating a custom `values.yaml`:
+
+```sh
+cd $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/helm-charts
+helm install \
+  gerrit-replica \  # release name
+  ./gerrit-replica \  # path to chart
+  --set=gitRepositoryStorage.size=100Gi,gitBackend.replicas=2
+```
+
+### Container images
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |

+| `images.busybox.registry` | The registry to pull the busybox container images from | `docker.io` |
+| `images.busybox.tag` | The busybox image tag to use | `latest` |
+| `images.registry.name` | The image registry to pull the container images from | `` |
+| `images.registry.ImagePullSecret.name` | Name of the ImagePullSecret | `image-pull-secret` (if empty no image pull secret will be deployed) |
+| `images.registry.ImagePullSecret.create` | Whether to create an ImagePullSecret | `false` |
+| `images.registry.ImagePullSecret.username` | The image registry username | `nil` |
+| `images.registry.ImagePullSecret.password` | The image registry password | `nil` |
+| `images.version` | The image version (image tag) to use | `latest` |
+| `images.imagePullPolicy` | Image pull policy | `Always` |
+| `images.additionalImagePullSecrets` | Additional image pull policies that pods should use | `[]` |
+
+### Labels
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `additionalLabels` | Additional labels for resources managed by this Helm chart | `{}` |
+
+### Storage classes
+
+For information of how a `StorageClass` is configured in Kubernetes, read the
+[official Documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/storage/storage-classes/#introduction).
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `storageClasses.default.name` | The name of the default StorageClass (RWO) | `default` |
+| `storageClasses.default.create` | Whether to create the StorageClass | `false` |
+| `storageClasses.default.provisioner` | Provisioner of the StorageClass | `kubernetes.io/aws-ebs` |
+| `storageClasses.default.reclaimPolicy` | Whether to `Retain` or `Delete` volumes, when they become unbound | `Delete` |
+| `storageClasses.default.parameters` | Parameters for the provisioner | `parameters.type: gp2`, `parameters.fsType: ext4` |
+| `storageClasses.default.mountOptions` | The mount options of the default StorageClass | `[]` |
+| `storageClasses.default.allowVolumeExpansion` | Whether to allow volume expansion. | `false` |
+| `storageClasses.shared.name` | The name of the shared StorageClass (RWM) | `shared-storage` |
+| `storageClasses.shared.create` | Whether to create the StorageClass | `false` |
+| `storageClasses.shared.provisioner` | Provisioner of the StorageClass | `nfs` |
+| `storageClasses.shared.reclaimPolicy` | Whether to `Retain` or `Delete` volumes, when they become unbound | `Delete` |

+| `storageClasses.shared.mountOptions` | The mount options of the shared StorageClass | `[]` |
+| `storageClasses.shared.allowVolumeExpansion` | Whether to allow volume expansion. | `false` |
+
+### CA certificate
+
+Some application may require TLS verification. If the default CA built into the
+containers is not enough a custom CA certificate can be given to the deployment.
+Note, that Gerrit will require its CA in a JKS keytore, which is described below.
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `caCert` | CA certificate for TLS verification (if not set, the default will be used) | `None` |
+
+### Workaround for NFS
+
+Kubernetes will not always be able to adapt the ownership of the files within NFS
+volumes. Thus, a workaround exists that will add init-containers to
+adapt file ownership. Note, that only the ownership of the root directory of the
+volume will be changed. All data contained within will be expected to already be
+owned by the user used by Gerrit. Also the ID-domain will be configured to ensure
+correct ID-mapping.
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `nfsWorkaround.enabled` | Whether the volume used is an NFS-volume | `false` |
+| `nfsWorkaround.chownOnStartup` | Whether to chown the volume on pod startup | `false` |
+| `nfsWorkaround.idDomain` | The ID-domain that should be used to map user-/group-IDs for the NFS mount | `localdomain.com` |
+
+### Network policies
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `networkPolicies.enabled` | Whether to enable preconfigured NetworkPolicies | `false` |
+| `networkPolicies.dnsPorts` | List of ports used by DNS-service (e.g. KubeDNS) | `[53, 8053]` |
+
+The NetworkPolicies provided here are quite strict and do not account for all
+possible scenarios. Thus, custom NetworkPolicies have to be added, e.g. for
+connecting to a database. On the other hand some defaults may be not restrictive
+enough. By default, the ingress traffic of the git-backend pod is not restricted.
+Thus, every source (with the right credentials) could push to the git-backend.
+To add an additional layer of security, the ingress rule could be defined more
+finegrained. The chart provides the possibility to define custom rules for ingress-
+traffic of the git-backend pod under `gitBackend.networkPolicy.ingress`.
+Depending on the scenario, there are different ways to restrict the incoming
+connections.
+
+If the replicator (e.g. Gerrit) is running in a pod on the same cluster,
+a podSelector (and namespaceSelector, if the pod is running in a different
+namespace) can be used to whitelist the traffic:
+
+```yaml
+gitBackend:
+  networkPolicy:
+    ingress:
+    - from:
+      - podSelector:
+          matchLabels:
+            app: gerrit
+```
+
+If the replicator is outside the cluster, the IP of the replicator can also be
+whitelisted, e.g.:
+
+```yaml
+gitBackend:
+  networkPolicy:
+    ingress:
+    - from:
+      - ipBlock:
+          cidr: xxx.xxx.0.0/16
+```
+
+The same principle also applies to other use cases, e.g. connecting to a database.
+For more information about the NetworkPolicy resource refer to the
+[Kubernetes documentation](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/network-policies/).
+
+### Storage for Git repositories
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `gitRepositoryStorage.externalPVC.use` | Whether to use a PVC deployed outside the chart | `false` |
+| `gitRepositoryStorage.externalPVC.name` | Name of the external PVC | `git-repositories-pvc` |
+| `gitRepositoryStorage.size` | Size of the volume storing the Git repositories | `5Gi` |
+
+If the git repositories should be persisted even if the chart is deleted and in
+a way that the volume containing them can be mounted by the reinstalled chart,
+the PVC claiming the volume has to be created independently of the chart. To use
+the external PVC, set `gitRepositoryStorage.externalPVC.enabled` to `true` and
+give the name of the PVC under `gitRepositoryStorage.externalPVC.name`.
+
+### Storage for Logs
+
+In addition to collecting logs with a log collection tool like Promtail, the logs
+can also be stored in a persistent volume. This volume has to be a read-write-many
+volume to be able to be used by multiple pods.
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `logStorage.enabled` | Whether to enable persistence of logs | `false` |
+| `logStorage.externalPVC.use` | Whether to use a PVC deployed outside the chart | `false` |
+| `logStorage.externalPVC.name` | Name of the external PVC | `gerrit-logs-pvc` |
+| `logStorage.size` | Size of the volume | `5Gi` |
+| `logStorage.cleanup.enabled` | Whether to regularly delete old logs | `false` |
+| `logStorage.cleanup.schedule` | Cron schedule defining when to run the cleanup job | `0 0 * * *` |
+| `logStorage.cleanup.retentionDays` | Number of days to retain the logs | `14` |
+| `logStorage.cleanup.resources` | Resources the container is allowed to use | `requests.cpu: 100m` |
+| `logStorage.cleanup.additionalPodLabels` | Additional labels for pods | `{}` |
+| | | `requests.memory: 256Mi` |
+| | | `limits.cpu: 100m` |
+| | | `limits.memory: 256Mi` |
+
+Each pod will create a separate folder for its logs, allowing to trace logs to
+the respective pods.
+
+### Istio
+
+Istio can be used as an alternative to Kubernetes Ingresses to manage the traffic
+into the cluster and also inside the cluster. This requires istio to be installed
+beforehand. Some guidance on how to set up istio can be found [here](/Documentation/istio.md).
+The helm chart expects `istio-injection` to be enabled in the namespace, in which
+it will be installed.
+
+In the case istio is used, all configuration for ingresses in the chart will be
+ignored.
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `istio.enabled` | Whether istio should be used (requires istio to be installed) | `false` |
+| `istio.host` | Hostname (CNAME must point to istio ingress gateway loadbalancer service) | `nil` |
+| `istio.tls.enabled` | Whether to enable TLS | `false` |
+| `istio.tls.secret.create` | Whether to create TLS certificate secret | `true` |
+| `istio.tls.secret.name` | Name of external secret containing TLS certificates | `nil` |
+| `istio.tls.cert` | TLS certificate | `-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----` |
+| `istio.tls.key` | TLS key | `-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----` |
+| `istio.ssh.enabled` | Whether to enable SSH | `false` |
+
+### Ingress
+
+As an alternative to istio the Nginx Ingress controller can be used to manage
+ingress traffic.
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `ingress.enabled` | Whether to deploy an Ingress | `false` |
+| `ingress.host` | Host name to use for the Ingress (required for Ingress) | `nil` |
+| `ingress.maxBodySize` | Maximum request body size allowed (Set to 0 for an unlimited request body size) | `50m` |
+| `ingress.additionalAnnotations` | Additional annotations for the Ingress | `nil` |
+| `ingress.tls.enabled` | Whether to enable TLS termination in the Ingress | `false` |
+| `ingress.tls.secret.create` | Whether to create a TLS-secret | `true` |
+| `ingress.tls.secret.name` | Name of an external secret that will be used as a TLS-secret | `nil` |
+| `ingress.tls.cert` | Public SSL server certificate | `-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----` |
+| `ingress.tls.key` | Private SSL server certificate | `-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----` |
+
+***note
+For graceful shutdown to work with an ingress, the ingress controller has to be
+configured to gracefully close the connections as well.
+***
+
+### Promtail Sidecar
+
+To collect Gerrit logs, a Promtail sidecar can be deployed into the Gerrit replica
+pods. This can for example be used together with the [gerrit-monitoring](https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/admin/repos/gerrit-monitoring)
+project.
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `promtailSidecar.enabled` | Whether to install the Promatil sidecar container | `false` |
+| `promtailSidecar.image` | The promtail container image to use | `grafana/promtail` |
+| `promtailSidecar.version` | The promtail container image version | `1.3.0` |
+| `promtailSidecar.resources` | Configure the amount of resources the container requests/is allowed | `requests.cpu: 100m` |
+|                             |                                                                     | `requests.memory: 128Mi` |
+|                             |                                                                     | `limits.cpu: 200m` |
+|                             |                                                                     | `limits.memory: 128Mi` |
+| `promtailSidecar.tls.skipverify` | Whether to skip TLS verification | `true` |

+| `gitBackend.image` | Image name of the Apache-git-http-backend container image | `k8sgerrit/apache-git-http-backend` |
+| `gitBackend.additionalPodLabels` | Additional labels for Pods | `{}` |

+| `gitGC.additionalPodLabels` | Additional labels for Pods | `{}` |
+
+### Gerrit replica
+
+***note
+The way the Jetty servlet used by Gerrit works, the Gerrit replica component of the
+gerrit-replica chart actually requires the URL to be known, when the chart is installed.
+The suggested way to do that is to use the provided Ingress resource. This requires
+that a URL is available and that the DNS is configured to point the URL to the
+IP of the node the Ingress controller is running on!
+***
+
+***note
+Setting the canonical web URL in the gerrit.config to the host used for the Ingress
+is mandatory, if access to the Gerrit replica is required!
+***
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default |
+|-----------|-------------|---------|
+| `gerritReplica.images.gerritInit` | Image name of the Gerrit init container image | `k8sgerrit/gerrit-init` |
+| `gerritReplica.images.gerritReplica` | Image name of the Gerrit replica container image | `k8sgerrit/gerrit` |
+| `gerritReplica.tolerations` | Taints and tolerations work together to ensure that pods are not scheduled onto inappropriate nodes. For more information, please refer to the following documents.

+
+### Gerrit config files
+
+The gerrit-replica chart provides a ConfigMap containing the configuration files
+used by Gerrit, e.g. `gerrit.config` and a Secret containing sensitive configuration
+like the `secure.config` to configure the Gerrit installation in the Gerrit
+component. The content of the config files can be set in the `values.yaml` under
+the keys `gerritReplica.etc.config` and `gerritReplica.etc.secret` respectively.
+The key has to be the filename (eg. `gerrit.config`) and the file's contents
+the value. This way an arbitrary number of configuration files can be loaded into
+the `$GERRIT_SITE/etc`-directory, e.g. for plugins.
+All configuration options for Gerrit are described in detail in the
+[official documentation of Gerrit](https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/config-gerrit.html).
+Some options however have to be set in a specified way for Gerrit to work as
+intended with the chart:
+
+- `gerrit.basePath`
+
+    Path to the directory containing the repositories. The chart mounts this
+    directory from a persistent volume to `/var/gerrit/git` in the container. For
+    Gerrit to find the correct directory, this has to be set to `git`.
+
+- `gerrit.serverId`
+
+    In Gerrit-version higher than 2.14 Gerrit needs a server ID, which is used by
+    NoteDB. Gerrit would usually generate a random ID on startup, but since the
+    gerrit.config file is read only, when mounted as a ConfigMap this fails.
+    Thus the server ID has to be set manually!
+
+- `gerrit.canonicalWebUrl`
+
+    The canonical web URL has to be set to the Ingress host.
+
+- `httpd.listenURL`
+
+    This has to be set to `proxy-http://*:8080/` or `proxy-https://*:8080`,
+    depending of TLS is enabled in the Ingress or not, otherwise the Jetty
+    servlet will run into an endless redirect loop.
+
+- `httpd.gracefulStopTimeout` / `sshd.gracefulStopTimeout`
+
+    To enable graceful shutdown of the embedded jetty server and SSHD, a timeout
+    has to be set with this option. This will be the maximum time, Gerrit will wait
+    for HTTP requests to finish before shutdown.
+
+- `container.user`
+
+    The technical user in the Gerrit replica container is called `gerrit`. Thus, this
+    value is required to be `gerrit`.
+
+- `container.replica`
+
+    Since this chart is meant to install a Gerrit replica, this naturally has to be
+    `true`.
+
+- `container.javaHome`
+
+    This has to be set to `/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64`, since this is
+    the path of the Java installation in the container.
+
+- `container.javaOptions`
+
+    The maximum heap size has to be set. And its value has to be lower than the
+    memory resource limit set for the container (e.g. `-Xmx4g`). In your calculation
+    allow memory for other components running in the container.
+
+To enable liveness- and readiness probes, the healthcheck plugin will be installed
+by default. Note, that by configuring to use a packaged or downloaded version of
+the healthcheck plugin, the configured version will take precedence over the default
+version. The plugin is by default configured to disable the `querychanges` and
+`auth` healthchecks, since the Gerrit replica does not index changes and a new
+Gerrit server will not yet necessarily have an user to validate authentication.
+
+The default configuration can be overwritten by adding the `healthcheck.config`
+file as a key-value pair to `gerritReplica.etc.config` as for every other configuration.
+
+SSH keys should be configured via the helm-chart using the `gerritReplica.etc.secret`
+map. Gerrit will create its own keys, if none are present in the site, but if
+multiple Gerrit pods are running, each Gerrit instance would have its own keys.
+Users accessing Gerrit via a load balancer would get issues due to changing
+host keys.
+
+## Upgrading the Chart
+
+To upgrade an existing installation of the gerrit-replica chart, e.g. to install
+a newer chart version or to use an updated custom `values.yaml`-file, execute
+the following command:
+
+```sh
+cd $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/helm-charts
+helm upgrade \
+  <release-name> \
+  ./gerrit-replica \ # path to chart
+  -f <path-to-custom-values>.yaml \
+```
+
+## Uninstalling the Chart
+
+To delete the chart from the cluster, use:
+
+```sh
+helm delete <release-name>
+```
