# Setup Ingress and HTTPS Follow [this quick start guide](https://docs.cert-manager.io/en/latest/tutorials/acme/quick-start/index.html) and install certmanager via helm and tiller: [This resource was also helpful](https://docs.cert-manager.io/en/latest/getting-started/install/kubernetes.html#installing-with-helm) ```bash $ kubectl create serviceaccount tiller --namespace=kube-system $ kubectl create clusterrolebinding tiller-admin --serviceaccount=kube-system:tiller --clusterrole=cluster-admin $ helm init --service-account=tiller $ helm repo add jetstack https://charts.jetstack.io $ helm repo update $ kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jetstack/cert-manager/release-0.11/deploy/manifests/00-crds.yaml $ helm install --name cert-manager --namespace cert-manager --version v0.11.0 jetstack/cert-manager ``` ## Create Letsencrypt Issuers and Ingress Services Copy the configuration templates and change the file according to your needs. ```bash # in folder deployment/digital-ocean/https/ cp templates/issuer.template.yaml ./issuer.yaml cp templates/ingress.template.yaml ./ingress.yaml ``` At least, **change email addresses** in `issuer.yaml`. For sure you also want to _change the domain name_ in `ingress.yaml`. Once you are done, apply the configuration: ```bash # in folder deployment/digital-ocean/https/ $ kubectl apply -f . ``` By now, your cluster should have a load balancer assigned with an external IP address. On Digital Ocean, this is how it should look like: ![Screenshot of Digital Ocean dashboard showing external ip address](./ip-address.png) Check the ingress server is working correctly: ```bash $ curl -kivL -H 'Host: ' 'https://' ``` If the response looks good, configure your domain registrar for the new IP address and the domain. Now let's get a valid HTTPS certificate. According to the tutorial above, check your tls certificate for staging: ```bash $ kubectl describe --namespace=human-connection certificate tls $ kubectl describe --namespace=human-connection secret tls ``` If everything looks good, update the issuer of your ingress. Change the annotation `certmanager.k8s.io/issuer` from `letsencrypt-staging` to `letsencrypt-prod` in your ingress configuration in `ingress.yaml`. ```bash # in folder deployment/digital-ocean/https/ $ kubectl apply -f ingress.yaml ``` Delete the former secret to force a refresh: ```text $ kubectl --namespace=human-connection delete secret tls ``` Now, HTTPS should be configured on your domain. Congrats.
