Using Helm 3
KubeVault can be installed via Helm using the chart from AppsCode Charts Repository. To install, follow the steps below:
$ helm install kubevault oci://ghcr.io/appscode-charts/kubevault \
--version v2024.9.30 \
--namespace kubevault --create-namespace \
--set-file global.license=/path/to/the/license.txt \
--wait --burst-limit=10000 --debug

Using YAML
If you prefer to not use Helm, you can generate YAMLs from KubeVault chart and deploy using kubectl. Here we are going to show the procedure using Helm 3.
$ helm template kubevault oci://ghcr.io/appscode-charts/kubevault \
--version v2024.9.30 \
--namespace kubevault --create-namespace \
--set-file global.license=/path/to/the/license.txt \
--set global.skipCleaner=true | kubectl apply -f -

Verify installation
To check if KubeVault operator pods have started, run the following command:
$ watch kubectl get pods --all-namespaces -l "app.kubernetes.io/instance=kubevault"
NAMESPACE NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
kubevault kubevault-kubevault-operator-5d5cc4c7c9-mj5d5 1/1 Running 0 2m18s
Once the operator pod is running, you can cancel the above command by typing Ctrl+C.
Now, to confirm CRD groups have been registered by the operator, run the following command:
$ kubectl get crd -l app.kubernetes.io/name=kubevault
Now, you are ready to create your first database using KubeVault.
