Deploy in Kubernetes
Using Helm (Recommended)
-
Install from OCI registry
helm install kite oci://ghcr.io/kite-org/charts/kite -n kube-system -
Or install from Helm repository
helm repo add kite https://kite-org.github.io/kite/ helm repo update helm install kite kite/kite -n kube-system
Using kubectl
-
Apply deployment manifests
kubectl apply -f deploy/install.yaml # or install it online # Note: This method may not be suitable for a production environment, as it does not include any configuration related to persistence. You will need to manually mount the persistence volume and set the environment variable DB_DSN=/data/db.sqlite to ensure that data is not lost. Alternatively, an external database can be used. # ref: https://kite.zzde.me/faq.html#persistence-issues kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kite-org/kite/refs/heads/main/deploy/install.yaml -
Access via port-forward
kubectl port-forward -n kube-system svc/kite 8080:8080
