OpenTelemetry Collector

Chainguard's redistribution of the OpenTelemetry Collector Helm chart, pre-configured with hardened Chainguard Images.

Prerequisites

Authentication is required to access this chart and its images. First, authenticate with Chainguard and configure your environment:


chainctl auth login
chainctl auth configure-docker --pull-token --save
helm registry login cgr.dev

Create an image pull secret for the cluster:


kubectl create secret docker-registry cgr-pull-secret \
  --docker-server=cgr.dev \
  --docker-username="$(echo cgr.dev | docker-credential-cgr get | jq -r '.Username')" \
  --docker-password="$(echo cgr.dev | docker-credential-cgr get | jq -r '.Secret')"

Installation

The chart requires specifying a deployment mode:


# DaemonSet mode (recommended for node-level collection)
helm install otel-collector oci://cgr.dev/chainguard-private/charts/opentelemetry-collector \
  --set mode=daemonset \
  --set imagePullSecrets[0].name=cgr-pull-secret

# Deployment mode (for cluster-level collection)
helm install otel-collector oci://cgr.dev/chainguard-private/charts/opentelemetry-collector \
  --set mode=deployment \
  --set imagePullSecrets[0].name=cgr-pull-secret
