Prerequisites

Before you install Dispatch, be sure you have completed the Prerequisites.

Installing Dispatch into a D2iQ Konvoy Cluster

The easiest way to install Dispatch is on Konvoy.

• Configure kubectl to point to the correct Kubernetes cluster.
• Install the Dispatch CLI.

1. In your existing cluster.yaml, set the Dispatch addon field enabled to true:

   apiVersion: konvoy.mesosphere.io/v1beta1
   kind: ClusterConfiguration
   spec:
     addons:
     - configRepository: https://github.com/mesosphere/kubeaddons-dispatch
       configVersion: stable-1.18-1.3.1
       addonsList:
       - name: dispatch
         enabled: true
   

2. Install Dispatch into the cluster.

   konvoy up
   

3. Verify that the Dispatch components are set up correctly.

   helm test dispatch-kubeaddons
   

Configuring the Dispatch Installation

Dispatch installation can be customized by setting various options via values.yaml if using dispatch init command or via values field in Dispatch Addon configuration.

Next steps

At this point, you’ve successfully installed Dispatch. Next, you can add a new application to Dispatch CI. To do so, follow the steps at Setting up a repository to use Dispatch.

Additionally, your installation of Dispatch may require customization of ArgoCD or MinIO to meet the requirements.
