The IBM/charts git repository provides several Helm chart repositories and is organized as follows:
The repo/ibm-helm directory contains packaged Helm chart binaries. Installation of a chart from the ibm-helm repo may require a docker-registry secret containing an entitlement key from MyIBM Container Software Library. See obtaining your entitlement key for step by step instructions on retrieving an entitlement key if required.
To add the ibm-helm repo to local helm chart repository list run the following command :
helm repo add ibm-helm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/charts/master/repo/ibm-helm
To add the ibm-helm repo to a OCP 4.6+ helm chart repository list run the following command :
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f -
apiVersion: helm.openshift.io/v1beta1
kind: HelmChartRepository
metadata:
name: ibm-helm-repo
spec:
connectionConfig:
url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/charts/master/repo/ibm-helm
EOF
If you are new to Helm 3 on OpenShift Container Platform, information on getting started can be found here.
The stable directory contains Helm chart source provided by IBM, while the repo/stable directory contains the packaged Helm chart binaries. To add the stable repo to local repository list run the following command :
helm repo add stable https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/charts/master/repo/stable
The entitled directory contains Helm chart source provided by IBM for commercial use, while the repo/entitled directory contains the packaged Helm chart binaries. Installation of a chart from the entitled helm repo requires a docker-registry secret containing an entitlement key from MyIBM Container Software Library. See installing entitled IBM Software onto IBM Cloud Private for step by step instructions on obtaining an entitlement key and creating the required secrets. To add the entitled repo to local repository list run the following command :
helm repo add entitled https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/charts/master/repo/entitled
The community directory contains Helm chart source provided by the wider community, while the repo/community directory contains the packaged Helm chart binaries. To add the community repo to local repository list run the following command :
helm repo add community https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IBM/charts/master/repo/community
The repo/stable, repo/entitled, and repo/community directories are Helm repositories, and their index.yaml file is built automatically based on the MASTER branch. As of IBM Cloud Private version 3.2, all three repositories are part of the default configuration of IBM Cloud Private, and as such, all charts in those repository will be displayed by default in the IBM Cloud Private catalog.
