- Policy Management Service
- A1 Controller
- NearRT RIC Simulator

Introduction to Helm Chart
In Nonrtric we use Helm chart as a packaging manager for kubernetes. Helm chart helps developer to package, configure & deploy the application and services into kubernetes environment.
For more information you could refer to below links,
https://helm.sh/docs/intro/quickstart/
Helm Chart in NONRTRIC
In Release B, the helm chart's are written in IT/Dep repo.
The following picture shows the hierarchy of the nonrtric within IT/Dep repo.
Each components in nonrtric repo are independent chart with common dependency of nonrtric-common. The nonrtric chart acts a parent chart where other charts like a1controller, a1simulator, controlpanel & policymanagemenservice are added as dependencies in it.
The nonrtric-common contains the common template shared across all the nonrtric componenets. The nonrtric-common chart is added as a dependency into all the components (a1controller, a1simulator, controlpanel, policymanagemenservice & nonrtric)
Each component can be built & packaged independently of others and the required version can be deployed by adding the same into requirements.yaml file in nonrtric
Code Block | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

dependencies:
- name: a1controller
version: ~1.0.0
repository: "@local"
- name: a1simulator

- name: policymanagementservice
version: ~1.0.0

The values.yaml file contains the default value of the individual components and it can be overridden with the override yaml file. The default values.yaml,

Packaging & Repo update
All the logic behind the helm packaging & repo update are kept under deploy-nonrtric.sh file. This script crawls through the nonrtric directory and packages all the dependencies charts & copy it to the helm local repo.
Code Block | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||
# Package nonrtric-common and serve it using Helm local repo
HELM_HOME=$(helm home)
COMMON_CHART_VERSION=$(cat $ROOT_DIR/../ric-common/Common-Template/helm/nonrtric-common/Chart.yaml | grep version | awk '{print $2}')
helm package -d /tmp $ROOT_DIR/../ric-common/Common-Template/helm/nonrtric-common
cp /tmp/nonrtric-common-$COMMON_CHART_VERSION.tgz $HELM_HOME/repository/local/ |
You can use the example recipe or your custom recipe file to invoke this script. Call the below command from /dep/bin directory,
Code Block | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||
root@vm1:~/dep/bin#./deploy-nonrtric -f ../nonrtric/RECIPE_EXAMPLE/example_recipe.yaml |
The above command packages nonrtri-common, a1controller,a1simulator, controlpanel & policymanagementservice and add them to the local helm repo which will be served later.
The above command also invokes the install script to do the actual deployment of our components which we cover in Deployment section.
Once you run the deploy command you see the below logs in the console,

Deployment
This is where the actual deployment of the components into kubernetes cluster happens. The install script is responsible for identifying the namespace, helm release & parent chart to start the deployment process. It also creates the config map of the recipe file which is later used during uninstall process. Once all the above are done, it will call the below command to deploy the nonrtric components,
Code Block | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||
helm install $DIR/../helm/"${PARENT_CHART}" -f $OVERRIDEYAML --namespace "${NONRTRIC_NAMESPACE:-nonrtric}" --name "${RELEASE_PREFIX}" |
The deploy-nonrtric script is called only the first time and every other redeployment should call install script as long as you don't do any change in helm charts. This saves time and resource as we reuse the existing charts packaged and served by helm repo.
To deploy the nonrtric components in kubernetes you need to call the below command from bin directory within nonrtric,
Code Block | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||
root@vm1:~/dep/nonrtric/bin#./install -f ../RECIPE_EXAMPLE/example_recipe.yaml |
Once the deployment starts you see the below log in console,
