Bitnami package for Contour

Contour is an open source Kubernetes ingress controller that works by deploying the Envoy proxy as a reverse proxy and load balancer.

Overview of Contour

Trademarks: This software listing is packaged by Bitnami. The respective trademarks mentioned in the offering are owned by the respective companies, and use of them does not imply any affiliation or endorsement.

TL;DR

helm install my-release oci://REGISTRY_NAME/REPOSITORY_NAME/contour

Note: You need to substitute the placeholders REGISTRY_NAME and REPOSITORY_NAME with a reference to your Helm chart registry and repository.

Introduction

Bitnami charts for Helm are carefully engineered, actively maintained and are the quickest and easiest way to deploy containers on a Kubernetes cluster that are ready to handle production workloads.

This chart bootstraps a Contour Ingress Controller Deployment and a Envoy Proxy Daemonset on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

Bitnami charts can be used with Kubeapps for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters.

Prerequisites

  • Kubernetes 1.23+
  • Helm 3.8.0+
  • An Operator for ServiceType: LoadBalancer like MetalLB

Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

helm install my-release oci://REGISTRY_NAME/REPOSITORY_NAME/contour

Note: You need to substitute the placeholders REGISTRY_NAME and REPOSITORY_NAME with a reference to your Helm chart registry and repository. For example, in the case of Bitnami, you need to use REGISTRY_NAME=registry-1.docker.io and REPOSITORY_NAME=bitnamicharts.

These commands deploy contour on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The Parameters section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

Tip: List all releases using helm list or helm ls --all-namespaces

Configuration and installation details

Resource requests and limits

Bitnami charts allow setting resource requests and limits for all containers inside the chart deployment. These are inside the resources value (check parameter table). Setting requests is essential for production workloads and these should be adapted to your specific use case.

To make this process easier, the chart contains the resourcesPreset values, which automatically sets the resources section according to different presets. Check these presets in the bitnami/common chart. However, in production workloads using resourcePreset is discouraged as it may not fully adapt to your specific needs. Find more information on container resource management in the official Kubernetes documentation.

Rolling VS Immutable tags

It is strongly recommended to use immutable tags in a production environment. This ensures your deployment does not change automatically if the same tag is updated with a different image.

Bitnami will release a new chart updating its containers if a new version of the main container, significant changes, or critical vulnerabilities exist.

To configure Contour please look into the configuration section Contour Configuration.

Example Quickstart Contour Confiuration

configInline:
  # should contour expect to be running inside a k8s cluster
  # incluster: true
  #
  # path to kubeconfig (if not running inside a k8s cluster)
  # kubeconfig: /path/to/.kube/config
  #
  # Client request timeout to be passed to Envoy
  # as the connection manager request_timeout.
  # Defaults to 0, which Envoy interprets as disabled.
  # Note that this is the timeout for the whole request,
  # not an idle timeout.
  # request-timeout: 0s
  # disable ingressroute permitInsecure field
  disablePermitInsecure: false
  tls:
    #   minimum TLS version that Contour will negotiate
    #   minimum-protocol-version: "1.1"
    # Defines the Kubernetes name/namespace matching a secret to use
    # as the fallback certificate when requests which don't match the
    # SNI defined for a vhost.
    fallback-certificate:
  #   name: fallback-secret-name
  #   namespace: projectcontour
  # The following config shows the defaults for the leader election.
  # leaderelection:
  #   configmap-name: leader-elect
  #   configmap-namespace: projectcontour
  ### Logging options
  # Default setting
  accesslog-format: envoy
  # To enable JSON logging in Envoy
  # accesslog-format: json
  # The default fields that will be logged are specified below.
  # To customise this list, just add or remove entries.
  # The canonical list is available at
  # https://godoc.org/github.com/projectcontour/contour/internal/envoy#JSONFields
  # json-fields:

Deploying Contour with an AWS NLB

By default, Contour is launched with an AWS Classic ELB. To launch contour backed by a NLB, please set these settings:

envoy:
  service:
    annotations:
      service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-type: nlb
      service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-ssl-ports: "https"
      service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-connection-idle-timeout: "3600"
      service.beta.kubernetes.io/aws-load-balancer-ssl-cert: arn:aws:acm: arn:aws:acm:XX-XXXX-X:XXXXXXXXX:certificate/XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXX

  containerPorts:
    http: 80
    https: 80

Setting Pod’s affinity

This chart allows you to set your custom affinity using the XXX.affinity parameter(s). Find more information about Pod’s affinity in the kubernetes documentation.

As an alternative, you can use of the preset configurations for pod affinity, pod anti-affinity, and node affinity available at the bitnami/common chart. To do so, set the XXX.podAffinityPreset, XXX.podAntiAffinityPreset, or XXX.nodeAffinityPreset parameters.

helm install my-release \
  --set envoy.readinessProbe.successThreshold=5 \
    oci://REGISTRY_NAME/REPOSITORY_NAME/contour

Note: You need to substitute the placeholders REGISTRY_NAME and REPOSITORY_NAME with a reference to your Helm chart registry and repository. For example, in the case of Bitnami, you need to use REGISTRY_NAME=registry-1.docker.io and REPOSITORY_NAME=bitnamicharts.

The above command sets the envoy.readinessProbe.successThreshold to 5.

Upgrading

Please carefully read through the guide “Upgrading Contour” at https://projectcontour.io/resources/upgrading/.

To 15.0.0

This major bump changes the following security defaults:

  • runAsGroup is changed from 0 to 1001
  • readOnlyRootFilesystem is set to true
  • resourcesPreset is changed from none to the minimum size working in our test suites (NOTE: resourcesPreset is not meant for production usage, but resources adapted to your use case).
  • global.compatibility.openshift.adaptSecurityContext is changed from disabled to auto.
  • envoy.useHostPort.* are changed from true to false.
  • Added missing liveness and readiness probes in components like shutdown-manager

This could potentially break any customization or init scripts used in your deployment. If this is the case, change the default values to the previous ones.

To 14.0.0

This major release adds support for Kubernetes PSA restricted mode out of the box. In order to do so, hostNetwork is disabled by default in envoy. In order to maintain hostNetwork in your current installation set envoy.useHostNetwork=true.

To 7.0.0

This major release renames several values in this chart and adds missing features, in order to be inline with the rest of assets in the Bitnami charts repository.

Affected values:

  • prometheus renamed as metrics.
  • serviceMonitor.labels renamed as serviceMonitor.selector.
  • service.port renamed as service.ports.xds.
  • service.nodePort renamed as service.nodePorts.xds.
  • contour.updateStrategy and worker.updateStrategy changed from String type (previously default to ‘rollingUpdate’) to Object type, allowing users to configure other updateStrategy parameters, similar to other charts.

To 6.0.0

This version updates the chart to use Contour’s latest release, 1.19.0. Among other features, this new version introduces support for new kinds of CRDs: ContourConfiguration and ContourDeployment. For further information on new features, please refer to the official release notes for this version.

Additionally, exisiting CRDs have been syncronised with the official Contour repository

Considerations when upgrading to this version

If you are installing a fresh chart, you can ignore this section.

If you are upgrading from 5.x of this Helm chart, this is a breaking change as the new CRDs will not overwrite the existing ones. Therefore, you will need to delete the CRDs and let the chart recreate them. Make sure to back up any existing CRs (kubectl get -o yaml extensionservice,httpproxy,tlscertificatedelegation -A > backup.yaml) unless you have other ways of recreating them.

To 5.2.0

This version bumps the Envoy container from 1.17.X to 1.19.X; this Envoy version is officially supported by Contour since 1.18.0, see https://github.com/projectcontour/contour/releases/tag/v1.18.0

To 5.0.0

In this version it was synchronized CRD with the official Contour repository

Considerations when upgrading to 5.0.0

If you are installing a fresh chart, you can ignore this section.

If you are upgrading from 4.x of this Helm chart, this is a breaking change as the new CRDs will not overwrite the existing ones. Therefore, you will need to delete the CRDs and let the chart recreate them. Make sure to back up any existing CRs (kubectl get -o yaml extensionservice,httpproxy,tlscertificatedelegation -A > backup.yaml) unless you have other ways of recreating them.

To 4.0.0

The 4.0 version of this chart introduces changes to handle Contour CRD upgrades. While Helm 3.x introduced the crd folder to place CRDs, Helm explicitly does not handle the CRD upgrade scenario.

What changes were introduced in 4.0.0?

  • The resources directory was added that contains all the Contour CRDs, which are imported by the templates/00-crds.yaml manifest on installation and upgrade.
  • If you do not wish for this chart to manage Contour CRDs, set the flag contour.manageCRDs to false when running Helm.

Considerations when upgrading to 4.0.0

If you are installing a fresh chart, or if you are upgrading from a 4.x version of this chart, you can ignore this section.

If you are upgrading from 3.x of this Helm chart, this is a breaking change as the new CRDs will not overwrite the existing ones. Therefore, you will need to delete the CRDs and let the chart recreate them. Make sure to back up any existing CRs (kubectl get -o yaml extensionservice,httpproxy,tlscertificatedelegation -A > backup.yaml) unless you have other ways of recreating them.

If required, back up your existing Custom Resources:

kubectl get -o yaml extensionservice,httpproxy,tlscertificatedelegation -A > backup.yaml

Delete the existing Contour CRDs. Note that this step will also delete the associated CRs and impact availability until the upgrade is complete and the backup restored:

kubectl delete extensionservices.projectcontour.io
kubectl delete httpproxies.projectcontour.io
kubectl delete tlscertificatedelegations.projectcontour.io

Upgrade the Contour chart with the release name my-release:

helm upgrade my-release oci://REGISTRY_NAME/REPOSITORY_NAME/contour

Note: You need to substitute the placeholders REGISTRY_NAME and REPOSITORY_NAME with a reference to your Helm chart registry and repository. For example, in the case of Bitnami, you need to use REGISTRY_NAME=registry-1.docker.io and REPOSITORY_NAME=bitnamicharts.

If you made a backup earlier, restore the objects:

kubectl apply -f backup.yaml

To 3.0.0

On November 13, 2020, Helm v2 support was formally finished, this major version is the result of the required changes applied to the Helm Chart to be able to incorporate the different features added in Helm v3 and to be consistent with the Helm project itself regarding the Helm v2 EOL.

What changes were introduced in 3.0.0?

  • Previous versions of this Helm Chart use apiVersion: v1 (installable by both Helm 2 and 3), this Helm Chart was updated to apiVersion: v2 (installable by Helm 3 only). Here you can find more information about the apiVersion field.
  • Move dependency information from the requirements.yaml to the Chart.yaml
  • After running helm dependency update, a Chart.lock file is generated containing the same structure used in the previous requirements.lock
  • The different fields present in the Chart.yaml file has been ordered alphabetically in a homogeneous way for all the Bitnami Helm Charts

Considerations when upgrading to 3.0.0

  • If you want to upgrade to this version from a previous one installed with Helm v3, you shouldn’t face any issues
  • If you want to upgrade to this version using Helm v2, this scenario is not supported as this version doesn’t support Helm v2 anymore
  • If you installed the previous version with Helm v2 and wants to upgrade to this version with Helm v3, please refer to the official Helm documentation about migrating from Helm v2 to v3

Useful links

To 2.0.0

Most important changes are:

  • Using helm hooks to generate new TLS certificates for gRPC calls between Contour and Envoy. This enables us to use the same container image for the contour controller and the certgen job without upgrade issues due to JobSpec immutability.
  • Rename parameter contour.createCustomResource to contour.installCRDs
  • Sync CRDs with upstream project examples. Please remember that helm does not touch existing CRDs. As of today, the most reliable way to update the CRDs is, to do it outside helm (Use --skip-crds when using helm v3 and --set contour.installCRDs=false when using helm v2). Read Upgrading Contour and execute the following kubectl command before helm upgrade:
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectcontour/contour/release-{{version}}/examples/contour/01-crds.yaml

This version also introduces bitnami/common, a library chart as a dependency. More documentation about this new utility could be found here. Please, make sure that you have updated the chart dependencies before executing any upgrade.
