In my umbrella Helm chart, I defined a dependency to Redis:
apiVersion: v2
appVersion: "1.0"
description: A Helm chart for Kubernetes
name: my-project
version: 0.1.0
dependencies:
- name: redis
version: ~6.2.x
repository: https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
At time of writing, the latest version is 6.2.6 (see https://bitnami.com/stack/redis/helm).
But when I execute helm dependency update my-project
, Helm downloads version 6.2.0 instead of 6.2.6.
When I try to install my chart, it fails:
Error: INSTALLATION FAILED: unable to build kubernetes objects from release manifest: [unable to recognize "": no matches for kind "Deployment" in version "extensions/v1beta1", unable to recognize "": no matches for kind "StatefulSet" in version "apps/v1beta2"]
Without the dependency to Redis, my chart installs fine.
I also tried to point at that specific Redis version in chart.yaml, but then helm dependency list
returns:
NAME VERSION REPOSITORY STATUS
redis 6.2.6 https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami wrong version
I'm running Kubernetes in Docker Desktop on my laptop. The versions I'm using:
When I install Redis independently using helm install my-release bitnami/redis
, the installation succeeds.
How do I use Redis 6.2.6 as a dependency in my chart?
K8s version 1.21 have deployment latest API
Simple ref : https://stackoverflow.com/a/66164857/5525824
While the chart you are using the Older API you might need to some changes or use the latest chart for installation.
The latest deployment API version is : apps/v1
You can check your K8s cluster supported API using
for kind in `kubectl api-resources | tail +2 | awk '{ print $1 }'`; do kubectl explain $kind; done | grep -e "KIND:" -e "VERSION:"
output
KIND: deployment
VERSION: v1
KIND: statefulset
VERSION: v1
Or use simple command : kubectl api-versions
You should checkout this Bitnami Redis document : https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/bitnami/redis
it updated a few days back and could work with minor changes of API only in your case.
If you check the stable Redis version helm chart : https://github.com/helm/charts/blob/master/stable/redis/templates/redis-master-statefulset.yaml
stateful API version : apiVersion: apps/v1
You change your Bitnami helm chart API using the : https://github.com/bitnami/charts/tree/master/bitnami/redis#common-parameters
You can change the API version at : https://github.com/bitnami/charts/blob/9f9d8aa887608e39aaab4ca1a80677605825b888/bitnami/redis/templates/master/statefulset.yaml#L2
Previous versions of this Helm Chart use apiVersion: v1 (installable by both Helm 2 and 3), this Helm Chart was updated to apiVersion: v2 (installable by Helm 3 only). Here you can find more information about the apiVersion field. The different fields present in the Chart.yaml file has been ordered alphabetically in a homogeneous way for all the Bitnami Helm Charts
