Bootstrapp Artifactory

You can bootstrap the Artifactory admin password and the Artifactory configuration when using Helm Charts.

Bootstrap the Artifactory Admin Password

You can bootstrap the admin user password as described in Recreating the Default Admin User.Introduction to Users and Groups

Create admin-creds-values.yaml and provide the IP (by default 127.0.0.1) and password.

artifactory:
  admin:
    ip: "<IP_RANGE>" # Example: "*" to allow access from anywhere
    username: "admin"
    password: "<PASSWD>"

Apply the admin-creds-values.yaml file.

Artifactory

helm upgrade --install artifactory --namespace artifactory jfrog/artifactory -f admin-creds-values.yaml

Artifactory HA

helm upgrade --install artifactory-ha --namespace artifactory-ha jfrog/artifactory-ha -f admin-creds-values.yaml

Restart the Artifactory pod (Kubectl delete pod <pod_name>).

Bootstrap the Artifactory Configuration

You can use Helm Charts to bootstrap the Artifactory global and security configuration. To do so, you will need an Artifactory subscription.

Create a bootstrap-config.yaml with an artifactory.config.import.xml and a security.import.xml as shown below.

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: my-release-bootstrap-config
data:
  artifactory.config.import.xml: |
    <config contents>
  security.import.xml: |
    <config contents>

Create a configMap in Kubernetes.
```
kubectl apply -f bootstrap-config.yaml
```

Pass the configMap to Helm using one of the following options.

Artifactory

helm upgrade --install artifactory --set artifactory.license.secret=artifactory-license,artifactory.license.dataKey=art.lic,artifactory.configMapName=my-release-bootstrap-config --namespace artifactory jfrog/artifactory

Artifactory HA

helm upgrade --install artifactory-ha --set artifactory.license.secret=artifactory-license,artifactory.license.dataKey=art.lic,artifactory.configMapName=my-release-bootstrap-config --namespace artifactory-ha jfrog/artifactory-ha

Artifactory

helm upgrade --install artifactory --set artifactory.license.licenseKey=<LICENSE_KEY>,artifactory.configMapName=my-release-bootstrap-config --namespace artifactory jfrog/artifactory

Artifactory HA

helm upgrade --install artifactory-ha --set artifactory.license.licenseKey=<LICENSE_KEY>,artifactory.configMapName=my-release-bootstrap-config --namespace artifactory-ha jfrog/artifactory-ha

Copy Configuration Files for Every Startup

Files stored in the /artifactory-extra-conf directory are only copied to the ARTIFACTORY_HOME/etc directory upon the first startup. In some cases, you might want your configuration files to be copied to the ARTIFACTORY_HOME/etc directory on every startup.

For example:

The binarystore.xml file: If you use the default behavior, your binarystore.xml configuration will only be copied on the first startup, which means that changes you make over time to the binaryStore.xml configuration will not be applied.

To make sure your changes are applied on every startup, create a YAML block with the following values:

artifactory: 
  copyOnEveryStartup: 
    - source: /artifactory_bootstrap/binarystore.xml 
      target: etc/artifactory

Install the Helm chart with the values file you created:

Artifactory

helm upgrade --install artifactory --namespace artifactory jfrog/artifactory -f values.yaml

Artifactory HA

helm upgrade --install artifactory-ha --namespace artifactory-ha jfrog/artifactory-ha -f values.yaml

Any custom configuration file you have to configure Artifactory, such as logback.xml :

Create a configMap with your logback.xml configuration.

Next, create a values.yaml file with the following values:

artifactory:
  ## Create a volume pointing to the config map with your configuration file
  customVolumes: |
    - name: logback-xml-configmap
      configMap:
        name: logback-xml-configmap
  customVolumeMounts: |
    - name: logback-xml-configmap
      mountPath: /tmp/artifactory-logback/
  copyOnEveryStartup:
    - source: /tmp/artifactory-logback/*
      target: etc/artifactory

Install the Helm chart with the values file you created:

Artifactory

helm upgrade --install artifactory --namespace artifactory jfrog/artifactory -f values.yaml

Artifactory HA

helm upgrade --install artifactory-ha --namespace artifactory-ha /jfrog/artifactory-ha -f values.yaml
