# Qlik Sense installer documentation
## Local development of documentation
Documentation is built using [mkdocs](https://www.mkdocs.org/) and uses [Material for MKDocs theme](https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/)
Requirements: Python and PIP or Docker
```console
pip install mkdocs
pip install mkdocs-material
```
View live changes locally at http://localhost:8000
```console
mkdocs serve
```
### Docker
```console
docker run --rm -it -p 8000:8000 -v ${PWD}:/docs squidfunk/mkdocs-material
```

# How qliksense cli works
At the initialization `qliksense` cli create few files in the director `~/.qliksene` and it contains following files
```console
.qliksense
├── config.yaml
├── contexts
│   └── qlik-default
│   └── qlik-default.yaml
└── ejson
└── keys
```
`qlik-default.yaml` is a default CR has been created with some default values like this
```yaml
apiVersion: qlik.com/v1
kind: Qliksense
metadata:
name: qlik-default
spec:
profile: docker-desktop
secrets:
qliksense:
- name: mongoDbUri
value: mongodb://qlik-default-mongodb:27017/qliksense?ssl=false
rotateKeys: "yes"
releaseName: qlik-default
```
The `qliksense` cli creates a default qliksense context (different from kubectl context) named `qlik-default` which will be the prefix for all kubernetes resources created by the cli under this context latter on. New context and configuration can be created by the cli.
```console
$ qliksense config -h
do operations on/around CR
Usage:
qliksense config [command]
Available Commands:
apply generate the patchs and apply manifests to k8s
list-contexts retrieves the contexts and lists them
set configure a key value pair into the current context
set-configs set configurations into the qliksense context as key-value pairs
set-context Sets the context in which the Kubernetes cluster and resources live in
set-secrets set secrets configurations into the qliksense context as key-value pairs
view view the qliksense operator CR
Flags:
-h, --help help for config
Use "qliksense config [command] --help" for more information about a command.
```
`qliksense` cli works in two modes
- with a git repo fork/clone of [qliksense-k8s](https://github.com/qlik-oss/qliksense-k8s)
- without git repo
## Without git repo
In this mode `qliksense` CLI download the specified version from [qliksense-k8s](https://github.com/qlik-oss/qliksense-k8s) and put it into folder `~/.qliksense/contexts/<context-name>/qlik-k8s`.
The qliksense cli create a CR for the qliksense operator and all the config operations are peformed to edit the CR. So when `qliksense install` or `qliksense config apply` both generate patches in local file system (i.e `~/.qliksense/contexts/<context-name>/qlik-k8s`) and install those manifests into the cluster and create a custom resoruce (CR) for the `qliksene operator` then the operator make association to the isntalled resoruces so that when `qliksenes uninstall` is performed the operator can delete all those kubernetes resources related to QSEoK for the current context.
## With a git repo
User has to create fork or clone of [qliksense-k8s](https://github.com/qlik-oss/qliksense-k8s) and push it to their own git server. When user perform `qliksense install` or `qliksene config apply` the qliksense operator do these tasks
- downloads the corresponding version of manifests from the user's git repo.
- generate kustomize patches
- install kubernetes resoruces
- push those generated patches into a new branch in the provided git repo. so that user user can merge those patches into their master branch.
- spinup a cornjob to monitor master branch. If user modifies anything in the master branch those changes will be applied into the cluster. This is a light weight `git-ops` model
This is how repo info is provided into the CR
```console
qliksense config set git.repository="https://github.com/my-org/qliksense-k8s"
qliksense config set git.accessToken=blablalaala
```

# Getting started
## Requirements
- `kubectl` need to be installed and configured properly so that `kubectl` can connect to the kubernetes cluser. The `qliksense` CLI uses `kubectl` under the hood to perform operations on cluster
- (Docker Desktop setup tested for these instructions)
## Download
- Download the appropriate executable for your platform from the [releases page](https://github.com/qlik-oss/sense-installer/releases) and rename it to `qliksense`. All the examplease down below uses `qliksense`.
## Quick start
- To download the version `v0.0.2` from qliksense-k8s [releases](https://github.com/qlik-oss/qliksense-k8s/releases).
```shell
$qliksense fetch v0.0.2
```
- To install CRDs for QSEoK and qliksense operator into the kubernetes cluster.
```shell
$qliksense crds install --all
```
- To install QSEoK into a namespace in the kubernetes cluster where `kubectl` is pointing to.
```shell
$qliksense install --acceptEULA="yes"
```

# Overview
The Qlik Sense installer CLI (qliksense) provides an imperative interface to many of the configurations that need to be applied against the declarative structure described in [qliksense-k8s](https://github.com/qlik-oss/qliksense-k8s). This cli facilitates:
- installation of QSEoK
- installation of qliksense operator to manage QSEoK
- air gapped installation of QSEoK
This is a technology preview that uses Qlik modified [kustomize](https://github.com/qlik-oss/kustomize) to kubernetes manifests of the versions of the [qliksense-k8s](https://github.com/qlik-oss/qliksense-k8s) repository.
For each version of a qliksense edge build there should be a corresponding release in [qliksense-k8s] repository under [releases](https://github.com/qlik-oss/qliksense-k8s/releases)
## Future Direction
- More operations:
- Expand preflight checks
- backup/restore operations
- fully support airgap installation of QSEoK
- restore unwanted deletion of kubernetes resources
