More helm commands

  • Install chart with values file
    helm install <release> <chart> -f values.yaml -n <ns> --create-namespace

    Deploy a chart; creates namespace if it doesn't exist

  • Upgrade or install (idempotent)
    helm upgrade --install <release> <chart> -f values.yaml -n <ns>

    Safe in CI — installs if absent, upgrades if present

  • Diff before upgrade
    helm diff upgrade <release> <chart> -f values.yaml -n <ns>

    Show exactly what will change (requires helm-diff plugin)

  • Render templates locally
    helm template <release> <chart> -f values.yaml --debug

    Output rendered YAML to stdout without deploying

  • Show release values
    helm get values <release> -n <ns> --all

    All computed values for a deployed release
