Try It Out
In this example we will deploy Harbor on a Kubernetes cluster using the Minimus Harbor Helm chart. Harbor will provide a private container registry with vulnerability scanning, content signing, and access control out of the box.
Step 1: Start Cluster
If you have a cluster to work with, skip this step. Otherwise, start a Minikube cluster. Deployment instructions
Step 2: Create Namespace
Create a namespace:
Step 3: Deploy the Helm Chart
Deploy the Minimus Helm chart:
helm install my-harbor oci://helm.mini.dev/harbor \
--version 1.19.2 \
-n harbor \
--wait
If you want to override the chart's defaults, go to the Values tab, save a copy locally with your changes. Deploy the chart with your overrides using -f values.yaml:
helm install my-harbor oci://helm.mini.dev/harbor \
--version 1.19.2 \
-f values.yaml \
-n harbor \
--wait
Step 4: Verify Harbor is Running
Confirm the chart deployed successfully and all Harbor components started:
kubectl get pods -n harbor -l app=harbor
You should see output similar to:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
harbor-core-xxxxxxxxx-xxxxx 1/1 Running 0 2m
harbor-database-0 1/1 Running 0 2m
harbor-jobservice-xxxxxxxxx-xxxxx 1/1 Running 0 2m
harbor-nginx-xxxxxxxxx-xxxxx 1/1 Running 0 2m
harbor-portal-xxxxxxxxx-xxxxx 1/1 Running 0 2m
harbor-redis-0 1/1 Running 0 2m
harbor-registry-xxxxxxxxx-xxxxx 2/2 Running 0 2m
harbor-trivy-xxxxxxxxx-xxxxx 1/1 Running 0 2m
Step 5: Test HTTP Endpoint
Forward the Harbor NGINX service port to your local machine:
kubectl port-forward svc/my-harbor-nginx 8443:443 -n harbor
In another terminal, verify the Harbor API is responding:
curl -sk https://localhost:8443/api/v2.0/health
You should see a JSON response indicating the health status of each Harbor component.
Step 6: Clean Up
Uninstall the chart and delete the namespace to remove all resources:
helm uninstall my-harbor -n harbor
kubectl delete namespace harbor
