helm-controller is a Kubernetes operator, allowing one to declaratively\nmanage Helm chart releases. It is part of a composable [GitOps toolkit](https://fluxcd.io/flux/components)\nand depends on [source-controller][] to acquire the Helm charts from Helm\nrepositories.\n\nThe desired state of a Helm release is described through a Kubernetes Custom\nResource named `HelmRelease`. Based on the creation, mutation or removal of a\n`HelmRelease` resource in the cluster, Helm actions are performed by the\noperator.\n\n![overview](docs/diagrams/helm-controller-overview.png)\n\n## Features\n\n* Watches for `HelmRelease` objects and generates `HelmChart` objects\n* Supports `HelmChart` artifacts produced from `HelmRepository`,\n  `GitRepository` and `Bucket` sources\n* Fetches artifacts produced by [source-controller][] from `HelmChart`\n  and `OCIRepository` objects\n* Watches `HelmChart` objects for revision changes (including semver\n  ranges for charts from `HelmRepository` sources)\n* Performs automated Helm actions, including Helm tests, rollbacks and\n  uninstalls\n* Offers extensive configuration options for automated remediation\n  (rollback, uninstall, retry) on failed Helm install, upgrade or test\n  actions\n* Runs Helm install/upgrade in a specific order, taking into account the\n  depends-on relationship defined in a set of `HelmRelease` objects\n* Reports Helm release statuses (alerting provided by\n  [notification-controller][])\n* Built-in Kustomize compatible Helm post renderer, providing support\n  for strategic merge, JSON 6902 and images patches\n* Supports detecting and correcting in-cluster changes compared to the desired\n  state of the Helm release\n\n## Guides\n\n* [Get started with Flux](https://fluxcd.io/flux/get-started/)\n* [Manage Helm Releases](https://fluxcd.io/flux/guides/helmreleases/)\n* [Setup Notifications](https://fluxcd.io/flux/guides/notifications/)\n\n## Specification\n\n[HelmRelease API](docs/spec/v2/helmreleases.md)\n\n[source-controller]: https://github.com/fluxcd/source-controller\n[notification-controller]: https://github.com/fluxcd/notification-controller\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffluxcd%2Fhelm-controller","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ffluxcd%2Fhelm-controller","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffluxcd%2Fhelm-controller/lists"}
