Ecosystem

A few days ago, API7.ai released an online Helm Charts repository. Users can easily install Apache APISIX, Apache apisix-dashboard and Apache apisix-ingress-controller from it (rather than cloning the corresponding project in advance).

How To Use

Just a few steps to install Apache APISIX

  1. Add the repository and fetch the update

    helm repo add apisix https://charts.apiseven.com
helm repo update

  2. Check out the available charts in repository

    $ helm search repo apisix

apisix/apisix-dashboard 0.1.0           2.3.0           A Helm chart for Apache APISIX Dashboard

  3. Install Apache APISIX to your Kubernetes cluster

    $ helm install apisix-gw apisix/apisix --namespace default
