Helm executor

Helm is the Botkube executor plugin that allows you to run the Helm CLI commands directly from any communication platform.

Manual testing

This section describes a manual testing of all supported Helm executor commands. It utilizes the k3d cluster and the leverages a built-in functionality to access your host system by referring to it as host.k3d.internal.

Only Slack integration is described, but described steps are the same for all communication platforms.

Install Botkube

1. Export Slack tokens:

   export SLACK_API_APP_TOKEN={token} # should start with xapp-1-
   export SLACK_API_BOT_TOKEN={token} # should start with xoxb-
   

2. Create /tmp/test-values.yaml:

   cat << EOF > /tmp/test-values.yaml
   communications:
     default-group:
       socketSlack:
         enabled: true
         channels:
           default:
             name: random
             bindings:
               executors:
                 - 'plugin-based'
         appToken: "${SLACK_API_APP_TOKEN}"
         botToken: "${SLACK_API_BOT_TOKEN}"
   
   executors:
     'plugin-based':
       botkube/helm:
         enabled: true
   
   extraEnv:
     - name: LOG_LEVEL_EXECUTOR_BOTKUBE_HELM
       value: "debug"
   
   plugins:
     cacheDir: "/tmp/plugins"
     repositories:
       botkube:
         url: http://host.k3d.internal:3000/botkube.yaml
   
   rbac:
     create: true
     rules:
       - apiGroups: ["*"]
         resources: ["*"]
         verbs: ["get", "watch", "list", "create", "delete", "update", "patch"]
   EOF
   

3. Start k3d cluster

   k3d cluster create labs --image=rancher/k3s:v1.25.0-k3s1
   

4. Build plugins:

   make build-plugins
   

5. Start plugin server:

   env PLUGIN_SERVER_HOST=http://host.k3d.internal go run test/helpers/plugin_server.go
