  Spinning up workloads in kubernetes is much different than just spinning up a container in docker or even with docker compose. If someone has not already packaged it in a helm chart or some other kubernetes workload you'll have to develop one yourself. There are some nice library charts you can use as a base that should handle just about any random docker image you want to deploy. https://github.com/bjw-s/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/library/common there is also a repo of pre developed charts for common images. https://github.com/k8s-at-home/charts but be aware it was recently deprecated so it won't be receiving any updates.

• Advice on system design best practices?

  Take a look at https://github.com/k8s-at-home/charts (recently deprecated but still a fantastic resource) - there are charts for the popular Arrs , tools, etc. You could deploy each chart individually into a namespace, or you could create yourself an "umbrella" chart which pulls in all the necessary charts as dependencies.

• With multiple custom apps, how do you manage your Helm charts?

  Library charts. A very thorough example can be seen here and usages of it here.

• Running into a problem with the k8s-at-home pod-gateway where the gateway-init container that's bootstrapping selected namespaces is unable to reach cluster DNS while pods in other namespaces can. Anyone run into this before?

• [Help!] K3s Sonarr failing with X509CertificateValidationService due to expired LetsEncrypt cert in Mono

  I know /u/stefantigro means well but the way you are both doing the helm charts is not ideal, helm charts are meant to be shared, not as a means to install apps into your cluster from a local folder. While they can be, it's not a good pattern. Take the helm chart from here for example. This is a published helm chart you can install using the commands in the Readme and you only need to provide the configuration for your instance from the values.yaml file. You can take a look at the values I use for this helm chart here. You can also see I'm using an custom Sonarr image, this image is tailored to running in Kubernetes

• Bounty for Homebridge TrueChart
  2 projects | /r/truenas | 5 Mar 2022

  There is a working Helm chart for k8s-at-home that should be a good starting point. The biggest hurdle I see is that homebridge can conflict with SCALE's mDNS service as seen in this linked post.

• Been self-hosting close to half a year now. All running on a k3s cluster of raspberry pis. Thank you to this subreddit for all the help and great ideas!

  There's an actual helm chart published here.
