helm-install: Install a helm chart with custom values.
$ helm install ${name} ${repository_name}/${chart_name} --set ${parameter1}=${value1},${parameter2}=${value2}
try on your machine

The command helm install ${name} ${repository_name}/${chart_name} --set ${parameter1}=${value1},${parameter2}=${value2} is used to install a Helm chart with specified values for given parameters.

Here's a breakdown of each component of the command:

  • ${name}: This is a placeholder for the name you want to give to the release being installed. It can be any unique name you choose.

  • ${repository_name}/${chart_name}: This specifies the repository name and chart name from where the chart will be installed. The repository name refers to the Helm repository where the chart is located, and the chart name is the name of the specific chart you want to install.

  • --set ${parameter1}=${value1},${parameter2}=${value2}: This flag allows you to specify values for parameters defined in the Helm chart's values.yaml file. With this flag, you can set multiple parameter-value pairs separated by commas. For example, ${parameter1}=${value1} sets the value of parameter1 to value1, and ${parameter2}=${value2} sets the value of parameter2 to value2. Modify these placeholders to match the actual parameter names and values you want to set.

So, when you run this command, Helm will install the specified chart from the given repository and set the values for the specified parameters according to your provided values.
