## helm install install a chart archive ### Synopsis This command installs a chart archive. The install argument must be a chart reference, a path to a packaged chart, a path to an unpacked chart directory or a URL. To override values in a chart, use either the '--values' flag and pass in a file or use the '--set' flag and pass configuration from the command line. $ helm install -f myvalues.yaml ./redis or $ helm install --set name=prod ./redis You can specify the '--values'/'-f' flag multiple times. The priority will be given to the last (right-most) file specified. For example, if both myvalues.yaml and override.yaml contained a key called 'Test', the value set in override.yaml would take precedence: $ helm install -f myvalues.yaml -f override.yaml ./redis You can specify the '--set' flag multiple times. The priority will be given to the last (right-most) set specified. For example, if both 'bar' and 'newbar' values are set for a key called 'foo', the 'newbar' value would take precedence: $ helm install --set foo=bar --set foo=newbar ./redis To check the generated manifests of a release without installing the chart, the '--debug' and '--dry-run' flags can be combined. This will still require a round-trip to the Tiller server. If --verify is set, the chart MUST have a provenance file, and the provenance file MUST pass all verification steps. There are five different ways you can express the chart you want to install: 1. By chart reference: helm install stable/mariadb 2. By path to a packaged chart: helm install ./nginx-1.2.3.tgz 3. By path to an unpacked chart directory: helm install ./nginx 4. By absolute URL: helm install https://example.com/charts/nginx-1.2.3.tgz 5. By chart reference and repo url: helm install --repo https://example.com/charts/ nginx CHART REFERENCES A chart reference is a convenient way of reference a chart in a chart repository. When you use a chart reference with a repo prefix ('stable/mariadb'), Helm will look in the local configuration for a chart repository named 'stable', and will then look for a chart in that repository whose name is 'mariadb'. It will install the latest version of that chart unless you also supply a version number with the '--version' flag. To see the list of chart repositories, use 'helm repo list'. To search for charts in a repository, use 'helm search'. ``` helm install [CHART] ``` ### Options ``` --ca-file string verify certificates of HTTPS-enabled servers using this CA bundle --cert-file string identify HTTPS client using this SSL certificate file --dep-up run helm dependency update before installing the chart --devel use development versions, too. Equivalent to version '>0.0.0-0'. If --version is set, this is ignored. --dry-run simulate an install --key-file string identify HTTPS client using this SSL key file --keyring string location of public keys used for verification (default "~/.gnupg/pubring.gpg") -n, --name string release name. If unspecified, it will autogenerate one for you --name-template string specify template used to name the release --namespace string namespace to install the release into. Defaults to the current kube config namespace. --no-hooks prevent hooks from running during install --replace re-use the given name, even if that name is already used. This is unsafe in production --repo string chart repository url where to locate the requested chart --set stringArray set values on the command line (can specify multiple or separate values with commas: key1=val1,key2=val2) --timeout int time in seconds to wait for any individual Kubernetes operation (like Jobs for hooks) (default 300) --tls enable TLS for request --tls-ca-cert string path to TLS CA certificate file (default "$HELM_HOME/ca.pem") --tls-cert string path to TLS certificate file (default "$HELM_HOME/cert.pem") --tls-key string path to TLS key file (default "$HELM_HOME/key.pem") --tls-verify enable TLS for request and verify remote -f, --values valueFiles specify values in a YAML file or a URL(can specify multiple) (default []) --verify verify the package before installing it --version string specify the exact chart version to install. If this is not specified, the latest version is installed --wait if set, will wait until all Pods, PVCs, Services, and minimum number of Pods of a Deployment are in a ready state before marking the release as successful. It will wait for as long as --timeout ``` ### Options inherited from parent commands ``` --debug enable verbose output --home string location of your Helm config. Overrides $HELM_HOME (default "~/.helm") --host string address of Tiller. Overrides $HELM_HOST --kube-context string name of the kubeconfig context to use --tiller-connection-timeout int the duration (in seconds) Helm will wait to establish a connection to tiller (default 300) --tiller-namespace string namespace of Tiller (default "kube-system") ``` ### SEE ALSO * [helm](helm.md) - The Helm package manager for Kubernetes. ###### Auto generated by spf13/cobra on 8-Mar-2018
