Installing Certificate Manager (Optional)

About this task

Certificate Manager is optionally used to automatically request TLS certificate using Let's Encrypt (https://letsencrypt.org). If you already have Certificate Manager installed or you have a different way to terminate TLS, you will not need this functionality.

See https://cert-manager.io for more information on Certificate Manager.

Procedure

Run the following command to install Certificate Manager.
helm repo add jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io
helm repo update
helm install \
  cert-manager jetstack/cert-manager \
  --namespace cert-manager \
  --create-namespace \
  --version v1.6.1 \
  --set installCRDs=true
