Kubernetes Helm

Helm is a tool for managing Kubernetes charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources.

Install

Helm is in its early stages of development. At this time there are no releases.

To install Helm from source, follow this process:

Make sure you have the prerequisites:

  • Go 1.6
  • A running Kubernetes cluster
  • kubectl properly configured to talk to your cluster
  • Glide 0.10 or greater
  1. Clone (or otherwise download) this repository
  2. Run make boostrap build

You will now have two binaries built:

  • bin/helm is the client
  • bin/tiller is the server

You can locally run Tiller, or you build a Docker image (make docker-build) and then deploy it (helm init -i IMAGE_NAME).

The documentation folder contains more information about the architecture and usage of Helm/Tiller.

The History of the Project

Kubernetes Helm is the merged result of Helm Classic 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.
