| global.kafka.topic | Kafka topic | l6p.log |
| server.storageClass | storage class of backing PVC | hostpath |
| server.service.port | port of the API server | 80 |
| server.ingress.hosts[0].host | hostname of the API server | local.l6p.io |

Please change local.l6p.io in the configuration to your actual domain name, such as l6p.mycompany.com, and resolve the domain name to the external IP address of Ingress Controller. The external IP address of Ingress Controller can be retrieved by using the command kubectl get service -n ingress-nginx. If you are only running on desktop, you can add a record in /etc/hosts to point local.l6p.io to the external IP address of Ingress Controller.
After modifying the configuration, please go back to the root directory and run:
helm install l6p ./charts/lollipop -n l6p-system
To check if the Lollipop pods have started, run the following command:
kubectl get pods -n l6p-system --watch
When all pods are running and ready it means that the system has installed successfully.
Login Lollipop
Open the Chrome browser and access the home page of the Lollipop web console. For example, according to the default configuration, the home page address is http://local.l6p.io.
By default, the system will create an administrator account with the username admin and the password password.
