First version of helm chart of pygeoapi

[cmotadev]

deploy of pygeoapi using helm. Tested on minikube and CRC/Openshift local

@cmotadev Thanks a lot for this contribution! 🙏🏽

It would be nice to have a little bit more of hand-holding on running this setup, perhaps by adding details on the README on how-to run this using minikube. The kubernetes README has a good example of this.

Add link to minikube https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/ and OpenShift https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/cloud-computing/openshift

Thanks @doublebyte1 for the PR review. It will be great to have a helm setup for our users/community!

Hi @doublebyte1, sorry for late response... I improved readme.md, but I didn´t write how-to for minikube, because helm is platform-agnostic. It only needs any flavour of kubernetes cluster running. I tested in minikube, CRC/OpenShift Local, OCP and OKD using the same steps: (download helm, cd to helm chart dir and helm install chart-name .)

Hi @cmotadev @doublebyte1, any update on this PR?

[cmotadev]

Hi @tomkralidis

I suggest to create a exclusive repo to host pygeoapi helm chart, including a GH Actions to release the charts and publish it on ArtifactHub

Once the repository is established, the effort to deploy pygeoapi in any k8s cluster with helm will be minimal - as helm repo add, helm repo update and helm install...

What do you think?

Thanks @cmotadev. cc'ing @doublebyte1 @kalxas @justb4 here for their initial feedback/recommendations.

@cmotadev @tomkralidis I believe the discussion that resulted in geopython/pygeoapi#2151 asserted the helm chart should be a part of pygeoapi repo (or its own repository). The thought was that it is not an example but instead another point of access. I will let @kalxas confirm.

@doublebyte1 I would contend it needs adequate information added to the documentation as much if not more than in a README

Agreed. I think that a new repo for helm chart only should be suitable. I'll be glad to help
