Helm
Helm is a kubernetes native application package manager
It allows describing the application structure through convenient helm-charts and managing it with simple commands
Helm helps to manage Kubernetes applications
Helm Charts help to define, install, and upgrade even the most complex Kubernetes applications
Charts are easy to create, version, share, and publish
The Chart File Structure
A chart is organized as a collection of files inside of a directory.
The directory name is the name of the chart (without versioning information).
Thus, a chart describing player-service would be stored in the player-service/ directory.
Following structure depicts structure of Helm chart for a service :
player-service/
Chart.yaml # A YAML file containing information about the chart
LICENSE # OPTIONAL: A plain text file containing the license for the chart
README.md # OPTIONAL: A human-readable README file
requirements.yaml # OPTIONAL: A YAML file listing dependencies for the chart
values.yaml # The default configuration values for this chart
charts/ # A directory containing any charts upon which this chart depends.
templates/ # A directory of templates that, when combined with values,
# will generate valid Kubernetes manifest files.
templates/NOTES.txt # OPTIONAL: A plain text file containing short usage notes
