# Home
Welcome to the documentation of Katenary.
## What is Katenary?
Katenary is a project that aims to help you to transform "compose" files (`docker-compose.yml`, `podman-compose.yml`...) to a complete and production ready [Helm Chart](https://helm.sh).
It uses your current file and optionnaly labels to configure the result.
It's an opensource project, under MIT licence, partially developped at [Smile](https://smile.eu). The project source code is hosted on the [Katenary GitHub Repository](https://github.com/metal3d/katenary).
## Install Katenary
Katenary is developped in [Go](https://go.dev). The binary is statically linked, so you can only download it from the [release page](https://github.com/metal3d/katenary/releases) of the project in GutHub.
You need to select the right binary for your operating system and architecture, and copy the binary in a directory that is in your `PATH`.
If you are a Linux user, you can use the "one line installation command" which will download the binary in you `$HOME/.local/bin` directory if it exists.
```bash
sh <(curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/metal3d/katenary/master/install.sh)
```
You can also build and install it yourself, the giver Makefile provides a `build` command that uses `podman` or `docker` to build the binary. You don't need to install Go compiler so.
```bash
git clone https://github.com/metal3d/katenary.git
cd katenary
make build
```
Then, copy `./katenary` binary to you `PATH` (`~/.local/bin` or `/usr/local/bin` with `sudo`) and type `katenary version` and / or `katenary help`
## Install completion
Katenary uses the very nice project named `cobra` to manage flags, argument and auto-completion.
You can activate it with:
```bash
# replace "bash" by "zsh" if needed
source <(katenary completion bash)
```
Add this line in you `~/.profile` or `~/.bashrc` file to have completion at startup.

# Basic Usage
Basically, you can use `katenary` to transpose a docker-compose file (or any compose file compatible with `podman-compose` and `docker-compose`) to a configurable Helm Chart. This resulting helm chart can be installed with `helm` command to your Kubernetes cluster.
Katenary transforms compose services this way:
- Takes the service and create a "Deployment" file
- if a port is declared, katenary creates a service (ClusterIP)
- it a port is exposed, katenary creates a service (NodePort)
- environment variables will be stored in `values.yaml` file
- image, tags, and ingresses configuration are also stored in `values.yaml` file
- if named volumes are declared, katenary create PersistentVolumeClaims - not enabled in values file (a `emptyDir` is used by default)
- any other volume (local mount points) are ignored
- `depends_on` needs that the pointed service declared a port. If not, you can use labels to inform katenary
Katenary can also configure containers grouping in pods, declare dependencies, ignore some services, force variables as secrets, mount files as `configMap`, and many others things. To adapt the helm chart generation, you will need to use some specific labels.
## Try to convert
After having installed `katenary`, the standard usage is to call:
```bash
katenary convert
```
It will search standard compose files in the current directory and try to create a helm chart in "chart" directory.
Katenary respects the Docker rules for overrides files, and you can of course force others files:
```bash
katenary convert -c file1.yaml -c file2.yaml
```
## Work with Depends On?
Kubernetes does not propose service or pod starting detection from others pods. But katenary will create init containers to make you able to wait for a service to respond. But you'll probably need to adapt a bit the compose file.
See this compose file:
```yaml
version: "3"
services:
webapp:
image: php:8-apache
depends_on:
- database
database:
image: mariadb
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: foobar
```
In this case, `webapp` needs to know the `database` port because the `depends_on` points on it and Kubernetes has not (yet) solution to check the database startup. Katenary wants to create a `initContainer` to hit on the related service. So, instead of exposing the port in the compose definition, let's declare this to katenary with labels:
```yaml
version: "3"
services:
webapp:
image: php:8-apache
depends_on:
- database
database:
image: mariadb
environment:
MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: foobar
labels:
katenary.io/ports: 3306
```
