helm Deploy

Description
Specify a Helm chart (either in your repository or remote from a registry) to deploy.
Refer to the Helm guide for usage instructions.
Below is the full schema reference for the action. For an introduction to configuring Garden, please look at our Configuration guide.
The first section contains the complete YAML schema, and the second section describes each schema key.
helm actions also export values that are available in template strings. See the Outputs section below for details.

# By default, the directory where the action is defined is used as the source for the build context.
#
# You can override this by setting either `source.path` to another (POSIX-style) path relative to the action source
# directory, or `source.repository` to get the source from an external repository.
#
# If using `source.path`, you must make sure the target path is in a git repository.

  # When set, Garden will import the action source from this repository, but use this action configuration (and not
  # scan for configs in the separate repository).

​
# A list of other actions that this action depends on, and should be built, deployed or run (depending on the action
# type) before processing this action.
#
# Each dependency should generally be expressed as a `"<kind>.<name>"` string, where _<kind>_ is one of `build`,
# `deploy`, `run` or `test`, and _<name>_ is the name of the action to depend on.
#
# You may also optionally specify a dependency as an object, e.g. `{ kind: "Build", name: "some-image" }`.
#
# Any empty values (i.e. null or empty strings) are ignored, so that you can conditionally add in a dependency via
# template expressions.
dependencies: []
​
# Set this to `true` to disable the action. You can use this with conditional template strings to disable actions
# based on, for example, the current environment or other variables (e.g. `disabled: ${environment.name == "prod"}`).
# This can be handy when you only need certain actions for specific environments, e.g. only for development.
#
# For Build actions, this means the build is not performed _unless_ it is declared as a dependency by another enabled
# action (in which case the Build is assumed to be necessary for the dependant action to be run or built).
#
# For other action kinds, the action is skipped in all scenarios, and dependency declarations to it are ignored. Note
# however that template strings referencing outputs (i.e. runtime outputs) will fail to resolve when the action is
# disabled, so you need to make sure to provide alternate values for those if you're using them, using conditional
# expressions.
disabled: false

#
# For actions other than _Build_ actions, this is usually not necessary to specify, or is implicitly inferred. An
# exception would be e.g. an `exec` action without a `build` reference, where the relevant files cannot be inferred
# and you want to define which files should affect the version of the action, e.g. to make sure a Test action is run
# when certain files are modified.
#
# _Build_ actions have a different behavior, since they generally are based on some files in the source tree, so

# * `.env` - Standard "dotenv" format, as defined by [dotenv](https://github.com/motdotla/dotenv#rules).
# * `.yaml`/`.yml` - YAML. The file must consist of a YAML document, which must be a map (dictionary). Keys may
# contain any value type.
# * `.json` - JSON. Must contain a single JSON _object_ (not an array).
#
# _NOTE: The default varfile format will change to YAML in Garden v0.13, since YAML allows for definition of nested
# objects and arrays._
#
# To use different varfiles in different environments, you can template in the environment name to the varfile name,

This would mean that instead of looking for manifest files relative to this action's location in your project structure, the output directory for the referenced exec Build would be the source.

spec.namespace
​spec > namespace
A valid Kubernetes namespace name. Must be a valid RFC1035/RFC1123 (DNS) label (may contain lowercase letters, numbers and dashes, must start with a letter, and cannot end with a dash) and must not be longer than 63 characters.
Type
Required
string
No
spec.portForwards[]
​spec > portForwards
Manually specify port forwards that Garden should set up when deploying in dev or watch mode. If specified, these override the auto-detection of forwardable ports, so you'll need to specify the full list of port forwards to create.
Type
Required
array[object]
No
spec.portForwards[].name
​spec > portForwards > name
An identifier to describe the port forward.
Type
Required
string
No
spec.portForwards[].resource
​spec > portForwards > resource
The full resource kind and name to forward to, e.g. Service/my-service or Deployment/my-deployment. Note that Garden will not validate this ahead of attempting to start the port forward, so you need to make sure this is correctly set. The types of resources supported will match that of the kubectl port-forward CLI command.
Type
Required
string
Yes
spec.portForwards[].targetPort
​spec > portForwards > targetPort
The port number on the remote resource to forward to.
Type
Required
number
Yes
spec.portForwards[].localPort
​spec > portForwards > localPort
The preferred local port to forward from. If none is set, a random port is chosen. If the specified port is not available, a warning is shown and a random port chosen instead.
Type
Required
number
No
spec.releaseName
​spec > releaseName
Optionally override the release name used when installing (defaults to the Deploy name).
Type
Required
string
No
spec.timeout
​spec > timeout
Time in seconds to wait for Helm to complete any individual Kubernetes operation (like Jobs for hooks).
Type
Default
Required
number
300
No
spec.values
​spec > values
Map of values to pass to Helm when rendering the templates. May include arrays and nested objects. When specified, these take precedence over the values in the values.yaml file (or the files specified in valueFiles).
Type
Default
Required
object
{}
No
spec.valueFiles[]
​spec > valueFiles
Specify value files to use when rendering the Helm chart. These will take precedence over the values.yaml file bundled in the Helm chart, and should be specified in ascending order of precedence. Meaning, the last file in this list will have the highest precedence.
If you also specify keys under the values field, those will effectively be added as another file at the end of this list, so they will take precedence over other files listed here.
Note that the paths here should be relative to the config root, and the files should be contained in this action config's directory.
Type
Default
Required
array[posixPath]
[]
No
spec.atomic
​spec > atomic
Whether to set the --atomic flag during installs and upgrades. Set to true if you'd like the changes applied to be reverted on failure.
Type
Default
Required
boolean
false
No
spec.chart
​spec > chart
Specify the Helm chart to use.
If the chart is defined in the same directory as the action, you can skip this, and the chart sources will be detected. If the chart is in the source tree but in a sub-directory, you should set chart.path to the directory path, relative to the action directory.
If the chart is remote, you can specify chart.name and chart.version\, and optionally chart.repo` (if the chart is not in the default "stable" repo).
You may also specify an absolute URL to a packaged chart via chart.url.
One of chart.name, chart.path or chart.url must be specified.
Type
Required
object
No
spec.chart.name
​spec > chart > name
A valid Helm chart name or URI (same as you'd input to helm install) Required if the action doesn't contain the Helm chart itself.
Type
Required
string
No
Example:
spec:
  ...
  chart:
    ...
    name: "ingress-nginx"
spec.chart.path
​spec > chart > path
The path, relative to the action path, to the chart sources (i.e. where the Chart.yaml file is, if any).
Type
Required
posixPath
No
spec.chart.repo
​spec > chart > repo
The repository URL to fetch the chart from. Defaults to the "stable" helm repo (https://charts.helm.sh/stable).

string
No
spec.chart.url
​spec > chart > url
An absolute URL to a packaged URL.
Type
Required
string

spec.chart.version
​spec > chart > version
The chart version to deploy.
Type
Required
string
No
spec.defaultTarget
​spec > defaultTarget
Specify a default resource in the deployment to use for syncs, local mode, and for the garden exec command.
Specify either kind and name, or a podSelector. The resource should be one of the resources deployed by this action (otherwise the target is not guaranteed to be deployed with adjustments required for syncing or local mode).
Set containerName to specify a container to connect to in the remote Pod. By default the first container in the Pod is used.
Note that if you specify podSelector here, it is not validated to be a selector matching one of the resources deployed by the action.
Type

spec.defaultTarget.kind
​spec > defaultTarget > kind
The kind of Kubernetes resource to find.
Type
Allowed Values
Required

Type
Required
string
No
spec.defaultTarget.podSelector
​spec > defaultTarget > podSelector
A map of string key/value labels to match on any Pods in the namespace. When specified, a random ready Pod with matching labels will be picked as a target, so make sure the labels will always match a specific Pod type.
Type
