This topic tells you how to install the Eventing package from the Tanzu Application Platform (commonly known as TAP) package repository.

Note

Follow the steps in this topic if you do not want to use a profile to install Eventing. For more information about profiles, see Components and installation profiles.

Prerequisites

Before installing Eventing:

• Complete all prerequisites to install Tanzu Application Platform. For more information, see Prerequisites.

Install

To install Eventing:

1. List version information for the package by running:

   tanzu package available list eventing.tanzu.vmware.com --namespace tap-install
   

   For example:

   $ tanzu package available list eventing.tanzu.vmware.com --namespace tap-install
   - Retrieving package versions for eventing.tanzu.vmware.com...
     NAME                   VERSION  RELEASED-AT
     eventing.tanzu.vmware.com  2.0.1    2022-10-11T00:00:00Z
   

2. (Optional) Make changes to the default installation settings:

   1. Gather values schema.

      tanzu package available get eventing.tanzu.vmware.com/2.0.1 --values-schema -n tap-install
      

      For example:

      $ tanzu package available get eventing.tanzu.vmware.com/2.0.1 --values-schema -n tap-install
      | Retrieving package details for eventing.tanzu.vmware.com/2.0.1...
        KEY           DEFAULT  TYPE     DESCRIPTION
        lite.enable   false    boolean  Optional: Not recommended for production. Set to "true" to reduce CPU and Memory resource requests for all Eventing Deployments, Daemonsets, and Statefulsets by half. On by default when "provider" is set to "local".
        pdb.enable    true     boolean  Optional: Set to true to enable Pod Disruption Budget. If provider local is set to "local", the PDB will be disabled automatically.
        provider      <nil>    string   Optional: Kubernetes cluster provider. To be specified if deploying Eventing on a local Kubernetes cluster provider.
      

   2. Create a eventing-values.yaml by using the following sample eventing-values.yaml as a guide:

      ---
      lite:
        enable: true
      

      Note

      For most installations, you can leave the eventing-values.yaml empty, and use the default values.

      If you run on a single-node cluster, such as kind or minikube, set the lite.enable: property to true. This option reduces resources requests for Eventing deployments.

3. Install the package by running:

   tanzu package install eventing -p eventing.tanzu.vmware.com -v 2.0.1 -n tap-install -f eventing-values.yaml --poll-timeout 30m
   

   For example:

   $ tanzu package install eventing -p eventing.tanzu.vmware.com -v 2.0.1 -n tap-install -f eventing-values.yaml --poll-timeout 30m
   - Installing package 'eventing.tanzu.vmware.com'
   | Getting package metadata for 'eventing.tanzu.vmware.com'
   | Creating service account 'eventing-tap-install-sa'
   | Creating cluster admin role 'eventing-tap-install-cluster-role'
   | Creating cluster role binding 'eventing-tap-install-cluster-rolebinding'
   | Creating secret 'eventing-tap-install-values'
   | Creating package resource
   | Waiting for 'PackageInstall' reconciliation for 'eventing'
   | 'PackageInstall' resource install status: Reconciling
   
   
   Added installed package 'eventing'
   

   Use an empty file for eventing-values.yaml to enable default installation configuration. Otherwise, see the previous step to set installation configuration values.

4. Verify the package install by running:

   tanzu package installed get eventing -n tap-install
   

   For example:

   tanzu package installed get eventing -n tap-install
   | Retrieving installation details for eventing...
   NAME:                    eventing
   PACKAGE-NAME:            eventing.tanzu.vmware.com
   PACKAGE-VERSION:         2.0.1
   STATUS:                  Reconcile succeeded
   CONDITIONS:              [{ReconcileSucceeded True  }]
   USEFUL-ERROR-MESSAGE:
   

   Verify that STATUS is Reconcile succeeded.
