The purpose of Helm

Helm is a powerful tool for managing Kubernetes packages called charts, they contain Kubernetes resource templates with a default configuration options. You can override any of these default settings with a YAML formatted values file that you pass during installation.

Helm can do the following:

• Create new charts from scratch.
• Package charts into chart archive (tgz) files.
• Interact with chart repositories where charts are stored.
• Install and uninstall charts into an existing Kubernetes cluster.
• Manage the release cycle of charts that have been installed with Helm.

For Helm, there are three important concepts:

• The chart is a bundle of information necessary to create an instance of a Kubernetes application.
• The config contains configuration information that can be merged into a packaged chart to create a releasable object.
• A release is a running instance of a chart, combined with a specific config.

Install Helm

Please refer to the Installing Helm Guide.

Using Helm

Once you have installed the Helm client, you can deploy a Daml Enterprise Helm Chart into a Kubernetes cluster.

Please refer to the Quickstart Guide if you wish to get running in just a few commands, otherwise the Using Helm Guide provides detailed instructions on how to use the Helm client to manage packages on your Kubernetes cluster.

Installing Helm charts

Please refer to the README of each Helm chart for detailed instructions on how to install/configure them.
