[!WARNING] This operator is no longer actively developed. The current generation of this project is N8n Rustful Operator — Kubernetes operator in Rust that runs n8n from custom resources. Declare an n8n instance — single process or queue-mode cluster — and the operator reconciles for you. Just start there.

N8n Kubernetes Operator

A Kubernetes operator that automates the deployment and management of n8n workflow automation instances on Kubernetes clusters.

Key Features

Automated Deployment: Simplified n8n instance deployment with PostgreSQL database configuration
Traffic Routing: Support for both Kubernetes Ingress and Gateway API HTTPRoute
Persistent Storage: Automatic volume provisioning and configurable storage management
Security: Non-root container execution with automated TLS configuration
Monitoring: Prometheus metrics integration for operational visibility

Quick Start

apiVersion: n8n.slys.dev/v1alpha1
kind: N8n
metadata:
  name: n8n-sample
spec:
  database:
    postgres:
      host: "postgres-host"
      port: 5432
      database: "n8n"
