This guide will outline the steps to follow to deploy a demo ansible automation platform instance to an existing kubernetes cluster. For our purposes that cluster will be an existing [[https://aws.amazon.com/rosa/][ROSA]] cluster running in AWS ~ap-southeast-1~.


* Login to cluster

As mentioned above we have an existing OpenShift cluster to use for this demo, we will need to login to the cli to automate the remainder of the jira setup.

#+NAME: Login to openshift
#+begin_src tmate
oc login --kubeconfig ~/.kube/rosa --token=<token> --server=<server>
#+end_src


* Create kubernetes namespace

Our first step is to create a kubernetes [[https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/namespaces/][namespace]] for our aap deployment.

#+NAME: Create aap namespace
#+begin_src tmate
kubectl --kubeconfig ~/.kube/rosa create namespace aap
#+end_src


* Subscribe to aap operator

Once we have a namespace we can create a ~Subscription~ custom resource to install the latest version of the Ansible Automation Platform [[https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/operator/][operator]].

#+begin_src tmate
cat << EOF | kubectl --kubeconfig ~/.kube/rosa apply -f -
apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1alpha1
kind: Subscription
metadata:
  name: ansible-automation-platform-operator
  namespace: aap
spec:
  channel: stable-2.3
  installPlanApproval: Automatic
  name: ansible-automation-platform-operator
  source: redhat-operators
  sourceNamespace: openshift-marketplace
  startingCSV: aap-operator.v2.3.0-0.1677639985
EOF
#+end_src


* Create aap custom resource

Once the operator is installed we can create an ~AutomationController~ custom resource as outlined below:

#+begin_src tmate
cat << EOF | kubectl --kubeconfig ~/.kube/rosa apply -f -
apiVersion: automationcontroller.ansible.com/v1beta1
kind: AutomationController
metadata:
  name: aap-demo
  namespace: aap
spec:
  create_preload_data: false
  route_tls_termination_mechanism: Edge
  garbage_collect_secrets: false
  ingress_type: Route
  loadbalancer_port: 80
  image_pull_policy: IfNotPresent
  projects_storage_size: 8Gi
  task_privileged: false
  projects_storage_access_mode: ReadWriteMany
  projects_persistence: false
  replicas: 1
  admin_user: admin
  loadbalancer_protocol: http
  nodeport_port: 30080
EOF
#+end_src


We can obtain the route to access the instance with the command below:

#+NAME: Retrieve aap route
#+begin_src tmate
echo https://$(oc --kubeconfig ~/.kube/rosa --namespace aap get route | grep apps.com | awk '{print $2}')
#+end_src
