The sections below detail how to upgrade the Operator.

Prerequisites

Tips

To get the best out of this guide, a basic understanding of Kubernetes concepts is essential.

Before upgrading the Operator, the following requirements should be met:

The Operator has been installed as per the Installation section.
The Helm 3 CLI tool is installed and configured to interact with your Kubernetes cluster.

Helm

The Operator can be upgraded using the command below:

helm repo update
helm upgrade kurrentdb-operator kurrentdb-operator-repo/kurrentdb-operator \
  --version {version} \
  --namespace kurrent \
  --set enable.crds=true

Here's what the command does:

Refreshes the local Helm repository index
Defines where Operator is installed i.e. kurrent (feel free to change this)
Define the upgrade {version} version e.g. 1.1.0
Deploys CRDs (this can be skipped by removing --set crds.enabled=true)
Performs the upgrade (leverages existing release values)
