Helm Charts

This GitHub project is the source for Helm stable and incubator.

For more information about installing and using Helm, see the Helm Docs. For a quick introduction to Charts, see the Chart Guide.

How Do I Install These Charts?

Clone the repository and just helm install ./stable/<chart>.

For more information on using Helm, refer to the Helm documentation.

Chart Format

Take a look at the alpine example chart for reference when you're writing your first few charts.

Before contributing a Chart, become familiar with the format. Note that the project is still under active development and the format may still evolve a bit.

Repository Structure

The Charts in the stable/ directory in the master branch of this repository match the latest packaged Chart in the Chart Repository, though there may be previous versions of a Chart available in that Chart Repository.

The purpose of this repository is to provide a place for maintaining and contributing official Charts, with CI processes in place for managing the releasing of Charts into the Chart Repository.

The Charts in this repository are organized into two folders:

  • stable
  • incubator

Stable Charts meet the criteria in the technical requirements.

Incubator Charts are those that do not meet these criteria. Having the incubator folder allows charts to be shared and improved on until they are ready to be moved into the stable folder.

In order to get a Chart from incubator to stable, Chart maintainers should open a pull request that moves the chart folder.

Contributing to an Existing Chart

We'd love for you to contribute to an existing Chart that you find provides a useful application or service for Kubernetes. Please read our Contribution Guide for more information on how you can contribute Charts.

Note: We use the same workflow, License and Contributor License Agreement as the main Kubernetes repository.

Owning and Maintaining A Chart

Individual charts can be maintained by one or more users of GitHub. When someone maintains a chart they have the access to merge changes to that chart. To have merge access to a chart someone needs to:

  1. Be listed on the chart, in the Chart.yaml file, as a maintainer. If you need sponsors and have contributed to the chart, please reach out to the existing maintainers, or if you are having trouble connecting with them, please reach out to one of the OWNERS of the charts repository.
  2. Be invited (and accept your invite) as a read-only collaborator on this repo. This is required for @k8s-ci-robot PR comment interaction.
  3. An OWNERS file needs to be added to a chart. That OWNERS file should list the maintainers' GitHub login names for both the reviewers and approvers sections. For an example see the Drupal chart. The OWNERS file should also be appended to the .helmignore file.

Once these three steps are done a chart approver can merge pull requests following the directions in the REVIEW_GUIDELINES.md file.

Trusted Collaborator

The pull-charts-e2e test run, that installs a chart to test it, is required before a pull request can be merged. These tests run automatically for members of the Helm Org and for chart repository collaborators. For regular contributors who are trusted, in a manner similar to Kubernetes community members, we have trusted collaborators. These individuals can have their tests run automatically as well as mark other pull requests as ok to test by adding a comment of /ok-to-test on pull requests.

There are two paths to becoming a trusted collaborator. One only needs follow one of them.

  1. If you are a Kubernetes GitHub org member and have your Kubernetes org membership public you can become a trusted collaborator for Helm Charts
  2. Get sponsorship from one of the Charts Maintainers listed in the OWNERS file at the root of this repository

The process to get added is:

  • File an issue asking to be a trusted collaborator
  • A Helm Chart Maintainer can then add the user as a read only collaborator to the repository

Review Process

For information related to the review procedure used by the Chart repository maintainers, see Merge approval and release process.

Stale Pull Requests and Issues

Pull Requests and Issues that have no activity for 30 days automatically become stale. After 30 days of being stale, without activity, they become rotten. Pull Requests and Issues can rot for 30 days and then they are automatically closed. This is the standard stale process handling for all repositories on the Kubernetes GitHub organization.

Supported Kubernetes Versions

This chart repository supports the latest and previous minor versions of Kubernetes. For example, if the latest minor release of Kubernetes is 1.8 then 1.7 and 1.8 are supported. Charts may still work on previous versions of Kubernertes even though they are outside the target supported window.

To provide that support the API versions of objects should be those that work for both the latest minor release and the previous one.
