Is there a way to add the helm repo using ansible? I'm trying to automate it as part of a playbook that bootstraps a cluster, installs helm, and adds the stable repo.
Everything works fine except the add repo bit.
I have this task in my ansible yaml definition
- name: Add helm stable repo
shell: helm repo add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com
But I get the error
"changed": true, "cmd": "helm repo add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/", "/bin/sh: 1: helm: not found" "stderr_lines": ["/bin/sh: 1: helm: not found"]
Which is weird cause helm is definitely installed. I can ssh into the box and run
helm version --short
v3.2.0+ge11b7ce
And when I run
helm repo add stable https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com/
directly, it works. But not via ansible.
Any ideas anyone?
Got it to work by doing
- name: Add helm stable repo
become: yes
become_user: vagrant
shell: helm repo add stable {{ helm_stable_repo }}
args:
executable: /bin/bash
register: "results"
- debug:
var: results
Looks like I just needed to get it to run as the user vagrant
.
I added executable: /bin/bash
to force it to use /bin/bash
Didn't really need to in the end though.
And the debug
flag to see the outcome.
