title: Kubernetes installation
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
For a mid to high-load installation, Kubernetes is recommended. authentik is installed using a helm-chart.
|
|
|
|
To install authentik using the helm chart, generate a password for the database and the cache, using `pwgen` or `openssl rand -base64 36`.
|
|
|
|
Create a values.yaml file with a minimum of these settings:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
postgresql:
|
|
postgresqlPassword: "<password you generated>"
|
|
redis:
|
|
password: "<another password you generated>"
|
|
config:
|
|
secretKey: "<another password you generated>"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See all configurable values on [artifacthub](https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/goauthentik/authentik).
|
|
|
|
Afterwards, run these commands to install authentik:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
helm repo add authentik https://helm.goauthentik.io
|
|
helm repo update
|
|
helm install authentik/authentik -f values.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This installation automatically applies database migrations on startup. After the installation is done, navigate to the `https://<ingress you've specified>/if/flow/initial-setup/`, to set a password for the akadmin user.
|
|
|
|
It is also recommended to configure global email credentials. These are used by authentik to notify you about alerts, configuration issues. They can also be used by [Email stages](flow/stages/email/index.md) to send verification/recovery emails.
