Helm Package

helm package

package a chart directory into a chart archive

Synopsis

This command packages a chart into a versioned chart archive file. If a path is given, this will look at that path for a chart (which must contain a Chart.yaml file) and then package that directory.

Versioned chart archives are used by Helm package repositories.

To sign a chart, use the '--sign' flag. In most cases, you should also provide '--keyring path/to/secret/keys' and '--key keyname'.

$ helm package --sign ./mychart --key mykey --keyring ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg

If '--keyring' is not specified, Helm usually defaults to the public keyring unless your environment is otherwise configured.

helm package [CHART_PATH] [...] [flags]
