Deploying CDP Admin UI Backend

This section provides detailed instructions on how to deploy HCL CDP Admin UI Backend using the Devtron in the OpenShift.

Prerequisites:

Make sure to create the UI secret with required data in the HashiCorp vault before deploying the CDP admin UI.

To create the UI secret in the HashiCorp Vault, follow the steps below:

  1. Create a UI secret sample key and value in the UI secret shown below, and update the actual values.
    {
  "AKAMAI_HOST": "",
  "AKAMAI_KEY": "",
  "AKAMAI_KEY_NAME": "",
  "AKAMAI_PATH": "",
  "AKAMAI_PURGE_AUTH_KEY": "",
  "API_KEY_1": "",
  "API_KEY_2": "",
  "API_KEY_3": "",
  "API_KEY_4": "",
  "API_KEY_5": "",
  "API_KEY_6": "",
  "API_SECRET_1": "",
  "API_SECRET_2": "",
  "API_SECRET_3": "",
  "API_SECRET_4": "",
  "API_SECRET_5": "",
  "API_SECRET_6": "",
  "AUTH_TOKEN": "",
  "NEXT_PUBLIC_CLIENT_ID": "",
  "NEXT_PUBLIC_CLIENT_SECRET": "",
  "NEXT_PUBLIC_FROALA_SECRET": "",
  "NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID": "",
  "NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET": "",
  "NEXT_PUBLIC_RECAPTCHA_KEY": "",
  "REACT_APP_CLIENT_ID": "",
  "REACT_APP_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID": "",
  "REACT_APP_S3_SECRET_KEY": "",
  "auAuthKey": "",
  "auEndpoint": "",
  "host": "",
  "muAuthKey": "",
  "muEndpoint": "",
  "password": "",
  "sesEmail": "",
  "sesPassword": "",
  "smtpFrom": "",
  "smtpHost": "",
  "smtpPassword": "",
  "smtpPort": "",
  "smtpUser": "",
  "usAuthKey": "",

  "user": ""
}
  2. Create a Kubernetes Secret with Vault credentials to fetch the secrets from the vault.
    apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: vault-creds
  namespace: cdp-dev-app
type: Opaque
data:
  username: <vault username>
  password: <vault password>
  3. Create separate service account say cdp-dev-app-sa, with appropriate roles and permissions, and update ConfigMaps data with actual values.
