Installing the chart

To deploy a new service, cd to the helm/charts directory, then execute (define the varibles below or edit the script with your desired values):

helm upgrade -i ${MY_HELM_NAME} \
  ./charts/simple-service \
  -n myapp \
  --values values/${MY_VALUES_FILE}

It is recommended to name the helm release the same as your app.name value.

Note

To install the chart automatically at cluster creation, update the init.sh script. For triggering upgrades when the associated Docker image is updated, update the upgrade.sh script.
