Deploy Kubernetes Helm Charts

[![Docker Repository on Quay](https://quay.io/repository/roboll/helmfile/status "Docker Repository on Quay")](https://quay.io/repository/roboll/helmfile)

## about

Helmfile is a declarative spec for deploying helm charts. It lets you...

* Keep a directory of chart value files and maintain changes in version control.
* Apply CI/CD to configuration changes.
* Periodically sync to avoid skew in environments.

To avoid upgrades for each iteration of `helm`, the `helmfile` executable delegates to `helm` - as a result, `helm` must be installed.

The default helmfile is `charts.yaml`:

```
repositories:
  - name: roboll
    url: http://roboll.io/charts

charts:
  - name: vault                          # helm deployment name
    namespace: vault                     # target namespace
    chart: roboll/vault-secret-manager   # chart reference
    values: [ vault.yaml ]               # value files (--values)
    set:                                 # values (--set)
      - name: address
        value: https://vault.example.com

```
