Hello, can you confirm that the helm chart does not support deploying lakefs using dynamodb as database? The database type seems to be hardcoded: https://github.com/treeverse/charts/blob/master/charts/lakefs/templates/_env.tpl#L3-L4

Hi @Alessandro Mangone yes, currently it is hard code - I'll open an issue to fix this one until tomorrow

Thank you @Barak Amar! But by having a look at the code I can’t find any reference to dynamodb? I’m looking at these lines, but I don’t know if they get overridden somewhere else.
(I’m not really proficient in helm charts syntax, so I might be missing something)

So, the change enables you to control the database type and additional configuration as part of 
lakefsConfig
section in your variables.
Example:
create myvalues.yaml:
Copy code
secrets:
  authEncryptSecretKey: random_string
lakefsConfig: |
  database:
    type: local
  blockstore:
    type: local
and use it to install lakefs:
Copy code
$ helm install -f myvalues.yaml my-lakefs lakefs/lakefs
it will deploy lakefs with the above configuration - using local database and local block storage
in your case you can use 'database.type' 'dynamodb' (like in the example: https://docs.lakefs.io/reference/configuration.html#example-aws-deployment-with-dynamodb-database) to configure which table to use.
The change you referenced was made to keep the same defaults we had so far and enable any customization using lakefsConfig settings.

Thanks for the clarification! I’ll try updating the chart right now

Seems to be working as expected! Thanks for the quick update! 🙂
