helm init

initialize Helm on both client and server

Synopsis

This command installs Tiller (the helm server side component) onto your Kubernetes Cluster and sets up local configuration in $HELM_HOME (default ~/.helm/)

As with the rest of the Helm commands, 'helm init' discovers Kubernetes clusters by reading $KUBECONFIG (default '~/.kube/config') and using the default context.

To set up just a local environment, use '--client-only'. That will configure $HELM_HOME, but not attempt to connect to a remote cluster and install the Tiller deployment.

When installing Tiller, 'helm init' will attempt to install the latest released version. You can specify an alternative image with '--tiller-image'. For those frequently working on the latest code, the flag '--canary-image' will install the latest pre-release version of Tiller (e.g. the HEAD commit in the GitHub repository on the master branch).

To dump a manifest containing the Tiller deployment YAML, combine the '--dry-run' and '--debug' flags.
