Component format

To setup Aerospike state store create a component of type state.Aerospike. See [this guide]({{< ref "howto-get-save-state.md#step-1-setup-a-state-store" >}}) on how to create and apply a state store configuration.

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1

  name: <NAME>
spec:
  type: state.Aerospike
  version: v1
  metadata:
  - name: hosts
    value: <REPLACE-WITH-HOSTS> # Required. A comma delimited string of hosts. Example: "aerospike:3000,aerospike2:3000"
  - name: namespace

  - name: set
    value: <REPLACE-WITH-SET> # Optional

{{% alert title="Warning" color="warning" %}} The above example uses secrets as plain strings. It is recommended to use a secret store for the secrets as described [here]({{< ref component-secrets.md >}}). {{% /alert %}}

Setup Aerospike

{{< tabs "Self-Hosted" "Kubernetes" >}}

{{% codetab %}} You can run Aerospike locally using Docker:

docker run -d --name aerospike -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 -p 3002:3002 -p 3003:3003 aerospike

You can then interact with the server using localhost:3000. {{% /codetab %}}

{{% codetab %}} The easiest way to install Aerospike on Kubernetes is by using the Helm chart:

helm repo add incubator http://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-charts-incubator
helm install --name my-aerospike --namespace aerospike stable/aerospike

This installs Aerospike into the aerospike namespace. To interact with Aerospike, find the service with: kubectl get svc aerospike -n aerospike.

For example, if installing using the example above, the Aerospike host address would be:

aerospike-my-aerospike.aerospike.svc.cluster.local:3000 {{% /codetab %}}
