Setting up Custom PostgresVersions
PostgresVersions are KubeDB crds that define the docker images KubeDB will use when deploying a postgres database. For more details about PostgresVersion crd, please visit here.
Creating a Custom Postgres Database Image for KubeDB
The best way to create a custom image is to build on top of the existing kubedb image.
FROM kubedb/postgres:10.2-v3
ENV TIMESCALEDB_VERSION 0.9.1
RUN set -ex \
&& apk add --no-cache --virtual .fetch-deps \
ca-certificates \
openssl \
tar \
&& mkdir -p /build/timescaledb \
&& wget -O /timescaledb.tar.gz https://github.com/timescale/timescaledb/archive/$TIMESCALEDB_VERSION.tar.gz \
&& tar -C /build/timescaledb --strip-components 1 -zxf /timescaledb.tar.gz \
&& rm -f /timescaledb.tar.gz \
\
&& apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps \
coreutils \
dpkg-dev dpkg \
gcc \
libc-dev \
make \
cmake \
util-linux-dev \
\
&& cd /build/timescaledb \
&& ./bootstrap \
&& cd build && make install \
&& cd ~ \
\
&& apk del .fetch-deps .build-deps \
&& rm -rf /build
RUN sed -r -i "s/[#]*\s*(shared_preload_libraries)\s*=\s*'(.*)'/\1 = 'timescaledb,\2'/;s/,'/'/" /scripts/primary/postgresql.conf
From there, we would define a PostgresVersion that contains this new image. Let’s say we tagged it as myco/postgres:timescale-0.9.1
apiVersion: catalog.kubedb.com/v1alpha1
kind: PostgresVersion
metadata:
name: timescale-0.9.1
spec:
version: 10.2
db:
image: "myco/postgres:timescale-0.9.1"
exporter:
image: "kubedb/postgres_exporter:v0.4.6"
tools:
image: "kubedb/postgres-tools:10.2-v3"
Once we add this PostgresVersion we can use it in a new Postgres like:
apiVersion: kubedb.com/v1alpha2
kind: Postgres
metadata:
name: timescale-postgres
namespace: demo
spec:
version: "timescale-0.9.1" # points to the name of our custom PostgresVersion
storage:
storageClassName: "standard"
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 1Gi
