If you are using a recent version of Helm, you do not need this anymore!
helm template
is now a built-in part of Helm. Just run helm template --help
with your existing Helm.
Helm Template Plugin
This is a Helm plugin to help chart developers debug their charts. It works like
helm install --dry-run --debug
, except that it runs locally, has more output
options, and is quite a bit faster.
Usage
Render chart templates locally and display the output.
This does not require Tiller. However, any values that would normally be
looked up or retrieved in-cluster will be faked locally. Additionally, none
of the server-side testing of chart validity (e.g. whether an API is supported)
is done.
$ helm template [flags] CHART
Flags:
--notes show the computed NOTES.txt file as well.
--set string set values on the command line. See 'helm install -h'
-f, --values valueFiles specify one or more YAML files of values (default [])
-v, --verbose show the computed YAML values as well.
Install
$ helm plugin install https://github.com/nholuongut/helm-template
The above will fetch the latest binary release of helm template
and install it.
Developer (From Source) Install
If you would like to handle the build yourself, instead of fetching a binary,
this is how recommend doing it.
First, set up your environment:
- You need to have Go installed. Make sure to set
$GOPATH
- If you don't have Glide installed, this will install it into
$GOPATH/bin
for you.
Clone this repo into your $GOPATH
. You can use go get -d github.com/nholuongut/helm-template
for that.
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/nholuongut/helm-template
$ make bootstrap build
$ SKIP_BIN_INSTALL=1 helm plugin install $GOPATH/src/github.com/nholuongut/helm-template
That last command will skip fetching the binary install and use the one you
built.
