## The History of the Project
|
||||
|
||||
Kubernetes Helm is the merged result of [Helm
|
||||
Classic](https://github.com/helm/helm) and the Kubernetes port of GCS Deployment
|
||||
Manager. The project was jointly started by Google and Deis, though it
|
||||
is now part of the CNCF.
|
||||
|
||||
Differences from Helm Classic:
|
||||
|
||||
- Helm now has both a client (`helm`) and a server (`tiller`). The
|
||||
server runs inside of Kubernetes, and manages your resources.
|
||||
- Helm's chart format has changed for the better:
|
||||
- Dependencies are immutable and stored inside of a chart's `charts/`
|
||||
directory.
|
||||
- Charts are strongly versioned using [SemVer 2](http://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html)
|
||||
- Charts can be loaded from directories or from chart archive files
|
||||
- Helm supports Go templates without requiring you to run `generate`
|
||||
or `template` commands.
|
||||
- Helm makes it easy to configure your releases -- and share the
|
||||
configuration with the rest of your team.
|
||||
- Helm chart repositories now use plain HTTP instead of Git/GitHub.
|
||||
There is no longer any GitHub dependency.
|
||||
- A chart server is a simple HTTP server
|
||||
- Charts are referenced by version
|
||||
- The `helm serve` command will run a local chart server, though you
|
||||
can easily use object storage (S3, GCS) or a regular web server.
|
||||
- And you can still load charts from a local directory.
|
||||
- The Helm workspace is gone. You can now work anywhere on your
|
||||
filesystem that you want to work.
