Install ale Components

Use the following kubectl command to install ale. 
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ale-run/ale/refs/heads/main/k8s/dist/latest/ale.yaml
You can verify the completion of the deployment using the following command. If all STATUS fields show Running, the installation is complete.
kubectl get pod -n ale

NAME                             READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
ale-agent-77dbd775c8-rtqzc       1/1     Running   0          165m
ale-controller-bf5c46899-8lrgt   1/1     Running   0          57m
mongodb-0                        1/1     Running   0          165m
Depending on the cluster conditions, the installation may take some time. If the STATUS does not change to Running after a long period or if the pod fails to start, use the command kubectl describe pod <pod name> -n ale to identify the specific cause.

Database Configuration (Optional)

By default, ale uses mongodb deployed as a StatefulSet in the cluster. If you want to use another database, execute the following commands:
  • For MongoDB Atlas: 
    export DB_USERNAME=[DB username]
export DB_PASSWORD=$(echo '[DB password]' | jq -Rr @uri)
export DB_NAME=[DB name]

kubectl patch secret ale-secrets -n ale \
  -p '{"data": {"DB_URL": "'$(echo -n "mongodb+srv://${DB_USERNAME}:${DB_PASSWORD}@cluster0.nbyq0.mongodb.net/${DB_NAME}?retryWrites=true&w=majority&appName=Cluster0" | base64)'"}}'
kubectl rollout restart deployment ale-controller -n ale
