Trilium Helm Chart

This is the Helm Chart for Trilium, to easily deploy Trilium on your Kubernetes cluster. This chart leverages the bjw-s common library to further increase the ease of use when deploying. Please view the previous link to see what values you can change/tweak to your needs here.

Requirements

• A working Kubernetes cluster.
• A PVC provisioner.
  • If you don't have one, but have something that serves an NFS share, take a look at the following
    • nfs-subdir-external-provisioner
    • democratic-csi

Deploying

helm repo add trilium https://triliumnext.github.io/helm-charts
helm install --create-namespace --namespace trilium trilium trilium/trilium -f values.yaml

Example values

Below are some examples of what you could provide for the chart's values.

image:
  repository: zadam/trilium
  tag: 0.63.5
  pullPolicy: IfNotPresent

Using Helm CLI

Using GitOps

If you want to use GitOps, essentially using a Git repository as the single source of truth for the applications in your cluster, you can use tools such as ArgoCD or Flux. Below is an example of what an "Application" that creates a Helm release in ArgoCD looks like:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
  name: trilium
  namespace: argocd

spec:
  project: default
  source:
    chart: trilium
    repoURL: https://trilium-next.github.io/helm-charts
    targetRevision: 0.0.1
    helm:
      values: |
		controllers:
		  trilium:
			containers:
			  trilium:
				image:
				  repository: zadam/trilium
				  tag: 0.63.5
				  pullPolicy: IfNotPresent
				env:
				  key: "value"

		persistence:
		  data:
			enabled: true
			type: persistentVolumeClaim
			existingClaim: my-claim-1
  destination:
    server: "https://kubernetes.default.svc"
    namespace: apps
  syncPolicy:
    automated:
      prune: true
      selfHeal: true 

Development

To use Helm in order to create the individual Kubernetes manifests needed to deploy it "by hand", you can use the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/TriliumNext/helm-chart
cd helm-chart
helm template test1 . --namespace testing -f values.yaml --debug > output.yaml
