Pixelfed helm chart


A helm chart to setup Pixelfed. Uses matt's docker image for now. This is still in a testing phase and may not be stable.

Features

  • includes bitnami subcharts for valkey (redis) and postgresql (database)
    • but you can also bring your own valkey, redis, or postgresql database
  • helm parameter docs autogenerated via helm-docs
  • use existing Secrets for valkey, postgresql, and smtp
  • RenovateBot keeps the subcharts and docker image up to date
  • configurable liveness and readiness probes

TLDR

# add the chart repo to your helm repos
helm repo add pixelfed https://small-hack.github.io/pixelfed-chart

# download the values.yaml and edit it with your own values such as YOUR hostname
helm show values pixelfed/pixelfed > values.yaml

# install the chart
helm install --namespace pixelfed --create-namespace pixelfed/pixelfed --values values.yaml
