Programmatic approach for executing helm charts CLI

5/11/2017

We are using helm charts to build and deploy applications in kubernetes. Right now we are doing the same manually.

I would like to write a REST API microservice which will allow us to :

  1. Install helm charts from artifactory
  2. Check status
  3. Upgrade
  4. delete
  5. Audit

Is anybody tried writing such microservice? If yes, sample code snippet would be helpful.

In helmsman I simply wrapped the helm CLI commands. Alternatively, you can communicate with the Tiller over gRPC. Have a look at Swift as an example.
