I am very newbie on Helm and struggling to configure deployment.yaml.Mychart tree structure looks like below. But how should I pass the values for dev and prod to the deployment.yaml?
For example if I would like to use different replicas for prod should I add another values such as below or deployment.yaml always keep as it is and use mutlipe values.yaml like as below.
replicas: {{ .Values.replicaCount .values.dev.replicacount }}
Or use only below tag is enough. Let's say if git branch equals to master then use below command
helm install . -f values.production.yaml
If git branch equal to development then use following command
helm install . -f values.dev.yaml
+-- charts
| \-- my-chart
| +-- Chart.yaml # Helm chart metadata
| +-- templates
| | \-- ...
| +-- values.yaml # default values
| +-- values.dev.yaml # development override values
| +-- values.prod.yaml # production override values
You should have a values.yaml
file per environment.
That means that in your templates/deployment.yaml
you'll have
replicas: {{ .Values.replicaCount }}
And then, for each environment you'll have a specific values.yaml
. Like:
+-- values.yaml # default values
+-- values.dev.yaml # development override values
+-- values.prod.yaml # production override values
