Open Source Charts

Release allows you to leverage open source Helm charts in your application. At deployment time Release will add the Helm repository and install its dependencies.
1
charts:
2
- name: elasticsearch
3
  add: elastic
4
  install: elastic/elasticsearch
5
  repo_url: https://helm.elastic.co
6
  directory: helm/elasticsearch
7
  values: values.yaml
8
- name: vault
9
  repo_url: https://helm.releases.hashicorp.com
10
  add: hashicorp
11
  install: hashicorp/vault
12
  directory: helm/hashicorp
13
  values: values.yml

This example shows how to define an application that will use both elasticsearch and vault open source Helm charts
Release will use a values file located in your source control repository. You can define adirectory where the values.yaml is located within your source control repository. By default Release will look in the root of the repository for the values file.
Once you've configured the charts you are now able to use them in a workflow. Workflows allow you to run the Helm charts in parallel and orchestrate the deployment of all of your other services.
