I built a docker image to run helm in container.

FROM alpine:edge

ARG HELM_VERSION=2.9.0
ENV URL="https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-helm/helm-v${HELM_VERSION}-linux-amd64.tar.gz"

RUN apk add --no-cache curl && \
    curl -L ${URL} |tar xvz && \
    cp linux-amd64/helm /usr/bin/helm && \
    chmod +x /usr/bin/helm && \
    rm -rf linux-amd64 && \
    apk del curl

WORKDIR /apps

ENTRYPOINT ["helm"]
CMD ["--help"]

I have put kubeconfig to default path ~/.kube/config, and I am fine to run helm commands locally

But when run helm command within container, i got below error:

$ docker run -ti --rm -v ~/.kube:/root/.kube -v $(pwd):/apps helm list

Error: Get https://xxxx.yl4.us-west-2.eks.amazonaws.com/api/v1/namespaces/kube-system/pods?labelSelector=app%3Dhelm%2Cname%3Dtiller: dial tcp 10.xxx.7.xxx:443: i/o timeout

Anything I can check?

Updates

Tried next day, it works without any changes.
