# Deploying Headscale on Kubernetes
This directory contains [Kustomize](https://kustomize.io) templates that deploy
Headscale in various configurations.
These templates currently support Rancher k3s. Other clusters may require
adaptation, especially around volume claims and ingress.
Commands below assume this directory is your current working directory.
# Generate secrets and site configuration
Run `./init.bash` to generate keys, passwords, and site configuration files.
Edit `base/site/public.env`, changing `public-hostname` to the public DNS name
that will be used for your headscale deployment.
Set `public-proto` to "https" if you're planning to use TLS & Let's Encrypt.
Configure DERP servers by editing `base/site/derp.yaml` if needed.
# Add the image to the registry
You'll somehow need to get `headscale:latest` into your cluster image registry.
An easy way to do this with k3s:
- Reconfigure k3s to use docker instead of containerd (`k3s server --docker`)
- `docker build -t headscale:latest ..` from here
# Create the namespace
If it doesn't already exist, `kubectl create ns headscale`.
# Deploy headscale
## sqlite
`kubectl -n headscale apply -k ./sqlite`
## postgres
`kubectl -n headscale apply -k ./postgres`
# TLS & Let's Encrypt
Test a staging certificate with your configured DNS name and Let's Encrypt.
`kubectl -n headscale apply -k ./staging-tls`
Replace with a production certificate.
`kubectl -n headscale apply -k ./production-tls`
## Static / custom TLS certificates
Only Let's Encrypt is supported. If you need other TLS settings, modify or patch the ingress.
# Administration
Use the wrapper script to remotely operate headscale to perform administrative
tasks like creating namespaces, authkeys, etc.
```

# TODO / Ideas
- Github action to publish the docker image
- Interpolate `email:` option to the ClusterIssuer from site configuration.
This probably needs to be done with a transformer, kustomize vars don't seem to work.
- Add kustomize examples for cloud-native ingress, load balancer
- CockroachDB for the backend
- DERP server deployment
- Tor hidden service
