**CloudDrove created this HelmChart so that One can deploy as many as application with common template and separate override-values.yaml for each application**



## ☸️ HELM installation

Below is an installer script that will automatically grab the latest version of Helm and install it locally.

  ```yaml

  $ curl -fsSL -o get_helm.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/helm/helm/main/scripts/get-helm-3

  $ chmod 700 get_helm.sh

  $ ./get_helm.sh

  ```

Binary downloads of the Helm client can be found on [the Releases page](https://github.com/helm/helm/releases/latest).

For installation in different Operating Systems you can follow [this guide.](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/)

```

- `Chart.yaml` : It contains a description of the chart such as Chart's `version` `appVersion` etc.

- `templates/` : This directory is for YAML files for Kubernetes resources to be created using this chart.

- `tests` : This directory contains a yaml file for creating a pod to test the cluster accessibility and networking related configurations.



- `values.yaml` : This file is important to templates and contains the default values for a chart. These values can be overridden by users in helmchart/config/override-values.yaml and then can be used during helm install/upgrade by specifying path of this override-values.yaml.



## Installing CloudDrove helmchart in your Kubernetes Cluster

   1. Add clouddrove helm repository in your local. 

      ```yaml

       $ helm repo add clouddrove https://charts.clouddrove.com/ 

      ```

   2. Update the clouddrove helm repo. 

      ```yaml

       $ helm repo update clouddrove

      ```

   3. Get the overrides-values.yaml from [HERE](https://github.com/clouddrove/helmchart/tree/master/tests).



   4. Change the attributes in override-app1-values.yaml as per your requirement. Some changes are given below

      ```yaml

       replicaCount: 2



       image:

         repository: nginx

         pullPolicy: IfNotPresent

         tag: "latest"



       service: 

         enabled: true

         type: NodePort 

         port: 80   

      ```



   5. You can test the helmchart with default OR override-values.yaml

      ```yaml

       $ helm template release-name clouddrove/helmchart -f override-app1-values.yaml --debug

      ```



   6. Deploy the clouddrove/helmchart on kubernetes cluster (eks, aks, gks, minikube). Here we are using `clouddrove` as `releasename` .

   - Find the required CustomResourceDefinitions(crds) [here](https://github.com/clouddrove/helmchart/tree/master/crds).

      ```yaml

       $ kubectl create namespace clouddrove

       $ helm install clouddrove clouddrove/helmchart -f override-app1-values.yaml --namespace=clouddrove --debug

      ``` 

   - using `--debug` flag to get more information of helm installation.

   - If chart with same releasename is already installed then you can upgrade it via `helm upgrade clouddrove clouddrove/helmchart -f override-app1-values.yaml --namespace=clouddrove --debug`

   - To always be at safe side use `upgrade` and `--install` together, this option will Install the helmchart if not present.

     ```yaml

      $ helm upgrade --install clouddrove clouddrove/helmchart -f override-app1-values.yaml --namespace=clouddrove --debug

     ```

   - Check the STATUS of helmchart `helm list` it should be deployed

      ```yaml

       $ helm list --namespace=clouddrove                

       NAME      	NAMESPACE	REVISION	UPDATED                                	STATUS  	CHART          	APP VERSION

       clouddrove	clouddrove  	1       	2023-05-23 20:28:39.571788019 +0530 IST	deployed	helmchart-0.0.6	0.0.6  

      ```

   - Further verify by seeing all information of clouddrove helmchart deployment

      ```yaml

       $ kubectl get all --namespace=clouddrove

       NAME                                        READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE

       pod/clouddrove-helmchart-8445d9c6c6-6lrmn   1/1     Running   0          19s

       pod/clouddrove-helmchart-8445d9c6c6-ncw97   1/1     Running   0          19s

       service/clouddrove-helmchart   NodePort   10.100.87.24           80:32245/TCP   19s



       NAME                                   READY   UP-TO-DATE   AVAILABLE   AGE

       deployment.apps/clouddrove-helmchart   2/2     2            2           19s



       NAME                                              DESIRED   CURRENT   READY   AGE

       replicaset.apps/clouddrove-helmchart-8445d9c6c6   2         2         2       19s



       NAME                                                       REFERENCE                         TARGETS         MINPODS   MAXPODS   REPLICAS   AGE

       horizontalpodautoscaler.autoscaling/clouddrove-helmchart   Deployment/clouddrove-helmchart   /80%   1         100       1          19s

      ```



   - Access the sample application deployed using clouddrove/helmchart 

   - Run below command to get IP of your node. Change `podname` with the name of your pod. In above example podname is `clouddrove-helmchart-8445d9c6c6-6lrmn`

     ```yaml

      $ kubectl describe pod podname -n clouddrove | grep Node: | awk -F / '{print $2}'

     ```

     > 192.172.100.10



   - Get the port number from `service` by which your container is mapped with Node's Port. In above example port number is `32245`

   - Access your application running on pod by visiting on `192.172.100.10:32245` in your browser



   7. Deploying another application using same clouddrove/helmchart with different [overrides-values.yaml](https://github.com/clouddrove/helmchart/tree/master/tests)

   - Change the attributes in override-app2-values.yaml as per your requirement. Some changes are given below

     ```yaml

      replicaCount: 2



      image:

        repository: tutum/hello-world

        pullPolicy: IfNotPresent

        tag: "latest"



      service: 

        enabled: true

        type: NodePort 

        port: 80   



     ```

   - Follow the same steps deploy this chart and get the IP & NodePort of second application to open webpage on your browser.
