Title: How to Deploy Kubernetes with
Helm Charts
Introduction:
Kubernetes
is a powerful container orchestration platform that can be used to deploy
and
manage containerized applications. Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes
that
makes it easy to deploy and manage Helm charts, which are packages that contain
all
the Kubernetes resources needed to deploy an application.
In
this blog post, we will show you how to deploy Kubernetes with Helm charts.
We
will start by creating a Helm chart for a simple application, and then we will
deploy
the
application to Kubernetes.
Prerequisites:
· Kubernetes
cluster
· Helm
Creating
a Helm Chart:
To
create a Helm chart, we will use the following command:
helm
create my-app
This will create a new directory called my-app that contains the Helm chart for
our application.
The my-app
directory contains the following files:
· Chart.yaml: This
file contains metadata about the Helm chart,
· such
as the name, version, and description.
· values.yaml: This
file contains default values for the Helm chart's parameters.
· templates: This
directory contains the Kubernetes resources that will be
· deployed
when the Helm chart is installed.
Deploying
the Helm Chart:
To
deploy the Helm chart, we will use the following command:
helm
install my-app
This
will deploy the Helm chart to Kubernetes.
Once
the Helm chart has been deployed, you can verify that the application
is
running by using the following command:
kubectl
get pods
This
command will list all the pods that are running in your Kubernetes cluster.
