Good Morning.

I'm currently using an helmchart to deploy camunda inside an openshift namespace/cluster.

For your information, Camunda has a default process called "Invoice" and that process is responsible to create a default user called "demo".

I would like to avoid that user creation, so i was able to do it through docker with the following command:

docker run -d --name camunda -p 8080:8080 -v
/tmp/empty:/camunda/webapps/camunda-invoice
camunda/camunda-bpm-platform:latest

But now, my helm chart uses a custom "values.yaml" that calls the camunda image, and then issues a command to start it:

image:
  name: camunda/camunda-bpm-platform
  tag: run-latest
  command: ['./camunda.sh']

So is it possible to use the same behavior as docker command shown above, to empty the "webapps" directory after calling the camunda.sh?

I know that I can pass through the args: [ ] the argument "--webapps" but the issue is that it will remove the "tasklist" and "cockpit" that allows users to access the Camunda UI.

Thank you everyone. Have a nice day!

EDIT: While speaking with Camunda team, i just had the information that i can send the "--webapps --swaggerui --rest" arguments in order to start the application without having the default BPMN Process (Invoice).

So I'm currently try to use multiple arguments in my Helm Chart values.yaml like this:

image:
  name: camunda/camunda-bpm-platform
  tag: run-latest
  command: ['./camunda.sh']
  args: ["--webapps", "--rest", "--swaggerui"]

Unfortunately, it's not working this way. What am i doing wrong? If I send just one argument like "--webapps" it reads the arguments and creates the container. But if i send multiple arguments, like the example shown above, it just doesn't create the container. Am i doing something wrong?

The different start arguments for the Camunda 7 RUN distribution are documented here: https://docs.camunda.org/manual/7.18/user-guide/camunda-bpm-run/#start-script-arguments
Here is a helm value file example using these parameters:

image:
  name: camunda/camunda-bpm-platform
  tag: run-latest
  command: ['./camunda.sh']
  args: ['--production','--webapps','--rest','--swaggerui']
