# Deploying ToolJet with Helm Chart
This repository contains Helm charts for deploying [ToolJet](https://github.com/ToolJet/helm-charts) on a Kubernetes Cluster using Helm v3. The charts include an integrated PostgreSQL server that is enabled by default. However, you have the option to disable it and configure a different PostgreSQL server by updating the `values.yml` file.
## Installation
### From Helm repo
```bash
helm repo add tooljet https://github.com/ToolJet/helm-charts.git
helm install tooljet tooljet/tooljet
```
### From the Source
1. Clone the repository and navigate to this directory
2. Run `helm dependency update`
3. It is recommended but optional to modify the values in the `values.yaml` file, such as usernames, passwords, persistence settings, etc.
4. Run `helm install -n $NAMESPACE --create-namespace $RELEASE .`
Remember to replace the variables with your specific configuration values.
:::warning
To use ToolJet AI features in your deployment, make sure to whitelist `https://api-gateway.tooljet.ai` and `https://python-server.tooljet.ai` in your network settings.

## ToolJet Database
ToolJet offers a hosted database solution that allows you to build applications quickly and manage your data effortlessly. The ToolJet database requires no setup and provides a user-friendly interface for data management.
For more information about the ToolJet database, you can visit [here](/docs/tooljet-db/tooljet-database).
## Redis Configuration
For a multi-service or multi-pod setup, it is recommended to use an external Redis instance.
**Default Behavior:**
- Redis is included in the Helm chart but **disabled by default**.
**When to Enable Redis?**
- If **ReplicaSet > 1**, Redis **must be enabled** inside `values.yaml` for session management.
Enabling or Disabling Redis in `values.yaml`
To **enable Redis**, modify the following section in `values.yaml`:
```yaml
redis:
enabled: true # Set to true if ReplicaSet > 1
fullnameOverride: redis
auth:
enabled: true
password: "tooljet"
master:
service:
port: 6379
```
**Using an External Redis Instance:**
- To configure an external Redis, update the `values.yaml` with the following variables:
```yaml
REDIS_HOST=<external_redis_host>
REDIS_PORT=<external_redis_port>
REDIS_USER=<external_redis_user>
REDIS_PASSWORD=<external_redis_password>
```
## Upgrading to the Latest LTS Version
New LTS versions are released every 3-5 months with an end-of-life of atleast 18 months. To check the latest LTS version, visit the [ToolJet Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/tooljet/tooljet/tags) page. The LTS tags follow a naming convention with the prefix `LTS-` followed by the version number, for example `tooljet/tooljet:ee-lts-latest`.
If this is a new installation of the application, you may start directly with the latest version. This guide is not required for new installations.
#### Prerequisites for Upgrading to the Latest LTS Version:
- It is crucial to perform a **comprehensive backup of your database** before starting the upgrade process to prevent data loss.
- Users on versions earlier than **v2.23.0-ee2.10.2** must first upgrade to this version before proceeding to the LTS version.
