Sonatype Nexus 3 hosted at Eclipse Foundation

This repository contains all required sources for the Sonatype Nexus 3 instance hosted at https://repo.eclipse.org and https://repo-staging.eclipse.org.

Contents

• Helm chart for Nexus 3
• Deployment script for Nexus 3
• Configuration files for staging and production environments

Prerequisites

Database Secret

Before deploying Nexus 3, you need to create a Kubernetes secret containing the PostgreSQL database credentials:

kubectl -n <namespace> create secret generic nexus3-postgressql-db \
  --from-literal=db_name='nexus3_<env>' \
  --from-literal=db_user='nexus3_<env>_rw' \
  --from-literal=db_pw='...'

Replace:

• <namespace>: the Kubernetes namespace (e.g., repo3-eclipse-org)
• <env>: the environment name (e.g., staging or production)
• db_pw: the actual database password

Nexus License File

Place your Nexus Repository Manager license file in the following location:

charts/nexus3/secrets/nxrm-license.lic

This file will be automatically mounted into the container at /etc/nxrm-license/nxrm-license.lic.

Deployment

Deploy to Staging

To deploy Nexus 3 to the staging environment:

./helm-deploy-nexus3.sh staging

This will:

• Use the configuration from charts/nexus3/values-staging.yaml
• Deploy to namespace repo-eclipse-org-staging
• Create/upgrade the Helm release nexus3-staging

Deploy to Production

To deploy Nexus 3 to the production environment:

./helm-deploy-nexus3.sh production

This will:

• Use the configuration from charts/nexus3/values.yaml
• Deploy to namespace repo3-eclipse-org
• Create/upgrade the Helm release nexus3-production
• Show a diff before applying changes (for upgrades)

Deploy with Custom Image Tag

You can optionally specify a custom image tag:

./helm-deploy-nexus3.sh <environment> <image-tag>
