Selfhost Discourse setup

Infrastructure

Hi,

I’m not sure if it’s ok to ask this here, but I would like to know what resources did you use to install Discourse here (forum.codefloe.com).

If it’s in k8s, did you use any speciffic helm chart?

Thanks

Just followed the default installation docs: discourse/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub

External Helm charts and other methods are sometimes problematic here, e.g. the Bitnami chart is somewhat unreliable and doesn’t work properly in many details.

The default installation way on a VPS might be a bit unorthodox but works pretty solid since the start. This is the only piece of infrastructure which isn’t applied via Ansible (but it could be done surely with a bit of effort).

Thanks, for clearing it up, this is very helpful. I thought I was missing some obvious Helm chart.
