helm-gcs

Helm plugin for using Google Cloud Storage as a private chart repository.

THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL GOOGLE PRODUCT

Install

1. Ensure the Google Cloud SDK is installed. This plugin depends on gsutil.

2. Authenticate the Google Cloud SDK.

   $ gcloud auth login
   

3. Install the Helm plugin

   $ helm plugin install https://github.com/viglesiasce/helm-gcs.git --version v0.2.0
   

Usage

1. Create a new Cloud Storage bucket:

   $ export PROJECT=$(gcloud info --format='value(config.project)') 
   $ gsutil mb gs://$PROJECT-helm-repo
   

2. Initialize an existing Cloud Storage Bucket to be a Helm repo:

   $ helm gcs init gs://$PROJECT-helm-repo
   

3. Create a test chart and package it:

   $ helm create test-chart
   $ helm package test-chart
   

4. Upload the chart to your repository:

   $ helm gcs push test-chart-0.1.0.tgz gs://$PROJECT-helm-repo
   

5. Add your Cloud Storage repo into your local Helm client:

   $ helm repo add gcs-repo gs://$PROJECT-helm-repo
   

6. List the charts in your newly added repo:

   $ helm search gcs-repo
   NAME               	VERSION	DESCRIPTION                
   gcs-repo/test-chart	0.1.0  	A Helm chart for Kubernetes
