Deploy Software Factory

Prerequisites

K3D version v5.6.0 for development and testing environments.
Any CNCF Certified Kubernetes Cluster for production environments.
UDS CLI version 0.10.4 or later.

Apple Silicon Mac Users

When deploying on an Apple Silicon Mac, you have the option to utilize Colima, an open-source alternative to Docker Desktop, for deploying this bundle. You can install Colima via Homebrew by executing the command brew install colima.

To set up an appropriately configured Colima virtual machine, run the following command:

colima start --cpu 11 --memory 32 --disk 100 --vm-type vz  --vz-rosetta --arch aarch64 --profile uds

Certain configurations must be set on the host to ensure a smooth deployment of SonarQube and UDS Core. Note: From our testing these steps are not required with Docker Desktop.

SSH To the colima VM:

colima ssh --profile uds

Then run the following commands:

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=1524288
sudo sysctl -w fs.file-max=1000000
ulimit -n 1000000
ulimit -u 8192
sudo sysctl --load
sudo swapoff -a
sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_instances=8192
sudo sysctl -p
exit

Linux Users

Depending on your Linux distribution and its configuration, you may need to execute the following steps to ensure the proper deployment of Software Factory and/or UDS Core:

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=1524288
sudo sysctl -w fs.file-max=1000000
ulimit -n 1000000
ulimit -u 8192
sudo sysctl --load
sudo swapoff -a
sudo sysctl fs.inotify.max_user_instances=8192
sudo sysctl -p

Quickstart

**Step 1: Install UDS CLI

brew tap defenseunicorns/tap && brew install uds

Step 2: Deploy

To experiment with the UDS Software Factory, you can use the k3d-swf-demo bundle to create a local K3d cluster featuring complete installations of UDS Core and Software Factory.

To deploy this bundle, run the following command:

uds deploy k3d-swf-demo:0.2.2

Optional:

Use the following command to visualize resources in the cluster via K9s:

uds zarf tools monitor

Step 3: Clean Up

Upon completion of the Software Factory demo bundle, execute the following command to tear down the K3d cluster:

k3d cluster delete uds

Alternatively, you have the option to deploy the swf-dev bundle, designed to be deployed atop k3d-core-slim-dev. This bundle encompasses the entire Software Factory, while leveraging only a portion of the underlying UDS Core baseline. This design allows the bundle to run on a broader range of hardware, specifically tailored for local development environments.

If using the swf-dev bundle, users have two options for deployment:

Build and deploy directly from the source.
Deploy the pre-built artifacts hosted in the GHCR OCI registry.

OCI

Run the below command to deploy the k3d-core-slim-dev bundle:

uds deploy k3d-core-slim-dev:0.22.0

Then run the following command to deploy the swf-dev bundle on top of the development cluster:

uds deploy swf-dev:0.2.2

You can then configure keycloak. Use zarf connect to establish a connection to the keycloak admin endpoint:

uds zarf connect keycloak

Refer to the UDS Core documentation for more details on how to configure keycloak users and groups.

Source

Step 1: Clone the Software Factory Repository

git clone https://github.com/defenseunicorns/uds-software-factory.git

To build and deploy from the source you can utilize the UDS tasks by running:

uds run

If you need to create a test user in keyloak you can then run:

uds run setup:create-doug-user
