Plausible Analytics in Kubernetes
This guide is designed to extend the normal self-hosting guide, please refer to it before following this guide.
1. Clone the hosting repo
To deploy Plausible Analytics into Kubernetes first download the plausible/hosting repo.
git clone https://github.com/plausible/hosting
cd hosting
2. Add required configuration
Like the original self hosting guide configure your server in the plausible-conf.env file.
3. Deploy the server
Once you've entered your secret key base, base url and admin credentials, you're ready to deploy the server:
kubectl create namespace plausible # Create a new namespace for all resources
kubectl -n plausible create secret generic plausible-config --from-env-file=plausible-conf.env # Create a configmap from the plausible-conf.env file
# Please change the Postgres and Clickhouse passwords to something more secure here!
kubectl -n plausible create secret generic plausible-db-user --from-literal='username=postgres' --from-literal='password=postgres' # Create the Postgres user
kubectl -n plausible create secret generic plausible-events-db-user --from-literal='username=clickhouse' --from-literal='password=clickhouse' # Create the Clickhouse user
kubectl -n plausible apply -f ./kubernetes
You can now navigate to http://{hostname}:8000 and see the login screen.
When you first log in with your admin credentials, you will be prompted to enter a verification code which has been sent to your email. Please configure your server for SMTP to receive this email. Here are Plausible's SMTP configuration options. Otherwise, run this command to verify all users in the database:
kubectl -n plausible exec statefulset/plausible-db -- /bin/bash -c 'psql -U $POSTGRES_USER -d $POSTGRES_DB -c "UPDATE users SET email_verified = true;"'
