# HAPI FHIR JPA Server Starter Helm Chart

{{ template "chart.versionBadge" . }}{{ template "chart.typeBadge" . }}{{ template "chart.appVersionBadge" . }}

This helm chart will help you install the HAPI FHIR JPA Server in a Kubernetes environment.

## Sample usage

```sh
helm repo add hapifhir https://hapifhir.github.io/hapi-fhir-jpaserver-starter/
helm install hapi-fhir-jpaserver hapifhir/hapi-fhir-jpaserver
```

{{ template "chart.requirementsSection" . }}

{{ template "chart.valuesSection" . }}

## Development

To update the Helm chart when a new version of the `hapiproject/hapi` image is released, [values.yaml](values.yaml) `image.tag` and the [Chart.yaml](Chart.yaml)'s
`version` and optionally the `appVersion` field need to be updated. Afterwards, re-generate the [README.md](README.md)
by running:

```sh
$ helm-docs
INFO[2021-11-20T12:38:04Z] Found Chart directories [charts/hapi-fhir-jpaserver]
INFO[2021-11-20T12:38:04Z] Generating README Documentation for chart /usr/src/app/charts/hapi-fhir-jpaserver
```

## Enable Distributed Tracing based on the OpenTelemetry Java Agent

The container image includes the [OpenTelemetry Java agent JAR](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-java-instrumentation)
which can be used to enable distributed tracing. It can be configured entirely using environment variables,
see <https://opentelemetry.io/docs/instrumentation/java/automatic/agent-config/> for details.

Here's an example setup deploying [Jaeger](https://www.jaegertracing.io/) as a tracing backend:

```sh
# required by the Jaeger Operator
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.9.1/cert-manager.yaml
kubectl create namespace observability
kubectl create -f https://github.com/jaegertracing/jaeger-operator/releases/download/v1.37.0/jaeger-operator.yaml -n observability

cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -n observability -f -
# simple, all-in-one Jaeger installation. Not suitable for production use.
apiVersion: jaegertracing.io/v1
kind: Jaeger
metadata:
  name: simplest
EOF
```

Use this chart's `extraEnv` value to set the required environment variables:

```yaml
extraEnv:
  - name: JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS
    value: "-javaagent:/app/opentelemetry-javaagent.jar"
  - name: OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER
    value: "none"
  - name: OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER
    value: "none"
  - name: OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER
    value: "jaeger"
  - name: OTEL_SERVICE_NAME
    value: "hapi-fhir-jpaserver"
  - name: OTEL_EXPORTER_JAEGER_ENDPOINT
    value: "http://simplest-collector.observability.svc:14250"
```

Finally, you can open the Jaeger query UI by running:

```sh
kubectl port-forward -n observability service/simplest-query 16686:16686
```

and opening <http://localhost:16686/> in your browser.
