Installation

There are multiple ways to install the Stackable Operator for Apache Zookeeper. stackablectl is the preferred way, but Helm is also supported. OpenShift users may prefer installing the operator from the RedHat Certified Operator catalog using the OpenShift web console.

  • stackablectl (recommended)

  • Helm

stackablectl is the command line tool to interact with Stackable operators and the recommended way to install Operators. Follow the installation steps for your platform.

After you have installed stackablectl, use it to install the ZooKeeper Operator and its dependencies:

stackablectl operator install \
  commons=0.0.0-dev \
  secret=0.0.0-dev \
  listener=0.0.0-dev \
  zookeeper=0.0.0-dev

The tool prints

Installed commons=0.0.0-dev operator
Installed secret=0.0.0-dev operator
Installed listener=0.0.0-dev operator
Installed zookeeper=0.0.0-dev operator
Consult the Quickstart to learn more about how to use stackablectl. For example, you can use the --cluster kind flag to create a Kubernetes cluster with kind.

You can also use Helm to install the operators.

helm repo subcommands are not supported for OCI registries. The operators are installed directly, without adding the Helm Chart repository first.

Install the Stackable Operators:

helm install --wait commons-operator oci://oci.stackable.tech/sdp-charts/commons-operator --version 0.0.0-dev
helm install --wait secret-operator oci://oci.stackable.tech/sdp-charts/secret-operator --version 0.0.0-dev
helm install --wait listener-operator oci://oci.stackable.tech/sdp-charts/listener-operator --version 0.0.0-dev
helm install --wait zookeeper-operator oci://oci.stackable.tech/sdp-charts/zookeeper-operator --version 0.0.0-dev

Helm deploys the operators in Kubernetes Deployments and applies the CRDs for the ZooKeeperCluster Stacklet.

What’s next?

Use the operator to deploy a ZooKeeper Stacklet.
