# SPAR Deployment

## Introduction

SPAR deployment comprises deploying the following services on [Kubernetes cluster infrastructure](/1.2/deployment/infrastructure-setup.md).

* [SPAR Service](/1.2/platform/modules/social-payments-account-registry-spar.md#spar-service) 
* [SPAR ID Account Mapper](/1.2/platform/modules/social-payments-account-registry-spar.md#id-account-mapper) 
* [SPAR Self Service Portal](/1.2/platform/modules/social-payments-account-registry-spar.md#spar-self-service-portal)  

## Prerequisites

* The following utilities/tools must be present on the user's machine.
  * `kubectl`, `istioctl`, `helm`, `jq`, `curl`, `wget`, `git`, `bash`, `envsubst`.
* This module requires kubernetes infrastructure to be setup. For details, [click here](/1.2/deployment/infrastructure-setup.md)
* [PostgreSQL](/1.2/deployment/external-components-setup/postgresql-server.md)
* SPAR Self Service Portal needs an e-Signet instance to allow login through national ID. To install eSignet on the OpenG2P K8s cluster with mock ID system, use the [eSignet guide](/1.2/deployment/external-components-setup/esignet-deployment.md).

## Installation

* Clone the <https://github.com/openg2p/openg2p-deployment> repo and navigate to [kubernetes/social-payments-account-registry](https://github.com/OpenG2P/openg2p-deployment/tree/main/kubernetes/social-payments-account-registry) directory.
* Configure the values.yaml in this folder according to the components needed. Go over the comments to check what can be added/edited/removed.
* Run:

  ```bash
  SANDBOX_HOSTNAME=openg2p.sandbox.net \
      ./install.sh
  ```

## Post-installation

After installation, SPAR Self Service portal will be accessible at <https://spar.openg2p.sandbox.net>, SPAR Service APIs will be accessible at <https://spar.openg2p.sandbox.net/spar/v1>, and SPAR ID Mapper APIs will be accessible at <https://spar.openg2p.sandbox.net/mapper/v1>, depending on the hostname given above.

Follow [SPAR Post Installation](/1.2/deployment/openg2p-modules-deployment/spar-deployment/spar-post-installation-configuration.md) Guide to finish setup.
