salt.modules.helm¶

Interface with Helm

depends:	pyhelm Python package

Note

This module use the helm-cli. The helm-cli binary have to be present in your Salt-Minion path.

Helm-CLI vs Salt-Modules¶

This module is a wrapper of the helm binary. All helm v3.0 command are implemented.

To install a chart with the helm-cli:

helm install grafana stable/grafana --wait --values /path/to/values.yaml

To install a chart with the Salt-Module:

salt '*' helm.install grafana stable/grafana values='/path/to/values.yaml' flags="['wait']"
