helm 简单入手-实战结果
1 概念
本指南讲述使用Helm来管理k8s集群软件包的基础知识。
Helm 有3个重要概念：
1、helm： 一个命令行客户端工具，主要用于 Kubernetes 应用 chart 的创建、 打包、 发布和管理。
2、Chart：应用描述，一系列用于描述 k8s 资源相关文件的集合。
3、Release：基于 Chart 的部署实体，一个 chart 被 Helm 运行后将会生成对应的一个release；release是在 k8s 中创建出真实运行的资源对象。 一个chart通常可以多次安装到同一个集群中。每次安装都会创建一个新release，每个release都有自己的release name
4、Repoistory 本质上是一个web服务器，该服务器保存了一系列的chart阮籍爱你包以供用户下载，并且提供了一个该Repository的chart包的清单文件以供查询。Helm可以同时管理多个不同的Repository
有了这些概念，我们可以这样解释Helm
Helm将charts安装到Kubernetes中，每个安装创建一个新release。要找到新的chart，可以搜索Helm charts存储库repositories
1.1 安装步骤
helm 下载得当前是最新版本，较老版本删除了tailer，V3和V2的架构对比如下：
V2版本的架构中，Tiller在Kubernetes集群中，Helm Client发请求给Tiller需要经过RBAC认证。而V3版本是Helm通过kubeconfig连接kube-apiserver，避免了使用者去配置RBAC权限。
curl -SLO https://get.helm.sh/helm-v3.4.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz //也可以去官网下载（linux请下载amd）：https://github.com/helm/helm/releases
tar -zxvf helm-v3.4.2-linux-amd64.tar.gz
mv linux-arm64/helm /usr/local/bin/helm
helm version //查看是否安装成功
安装成功之后请添加一个库
//添加微软的repo库
helm repo add stable http://mirror.azure.cn/kubernetes/charts
//添加阿里的repo库
helm repo add aliyun https://kubernetes.oss-cn-hangzhou.aliyuncs.com/charts
更新仓库
helm repo update查看仓库列表
helm repo list
删除仓库
helm repo remove aliyunhelm工具常用的几个处理chart的命令
#创建一个新的chart:
$ helm create mychart
Created mychart/
#编辑完chart后，helm可以将其打包到chart压缩包中：
$ helm package mychart
Archived mychart-0.1.-.tgz
#使用helm来帮助查找chart格式或信息的问题
$ helm list mychart
No issues found
$helm search repo //查看那些charts可用
$ helm search repo mysql //查看mysql相关的repo

另外，部署自定义chart的命令是 helm install vpcins vpc-client。 helm install 命令的第一个参数称为 Release，名字可以随意取，模板文件使用 {{ .Release.Name }} 可获取Release名称；第二个参数 vpc-client 是自定义chart的目录名。

比如在Deployment.yaml中定义的容器镜像image: "{{ .Values.image.repository }}:{{ .Values.image.tag }}"其中的：
-
.Values.image.repository就是nginx -
.Values.image.tag就是空
以上两个变量值是在create chart的时候自动生成的默认值，我们将默认值的镜像地址和tag修改为自己的镜像

1.4 自定义chart
我们创建第一个模板vpc。
步骤1：首先创建一个vpc-client/templates/vpc.yaml
apiVersion: kubeovn.io/v1
kind: Vpc
metadata:
name: vpc336步骤2： 安装chart
$ helm install vpcins vpc-client
NAME: vpcins
LAST DEPLOYED: Wed Jan 6 15:45:01 2021
NAMESPACE: default

REVISION: 1
NOTES:
1. Get the application URL by running these commands:
export POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods --namespace default -l "app.kubernetes.io/name=vpc-client,app.kubernetes.io/instance=vpcins" -o jsonpath="{.items[0].metadata.name}")
export CONTAINER_PORT=$(kubectl get pod --namespace default $POD_NAME -o jsonpath="{.spec.containers[0].ports[0].containerPort}")
echo "Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080 to use your application"
kubectl --namespace default port-forward $POD_NAME 8080:$CONTAINER_PORT步骤3： 查看加载的模板
￥helm get manifest vpcins
---
# Source: vpc-client/templates/vpc.yaml
apiVersion: kubeovn.io/v1
kind: Vpc
metadata:
name: vpc336步骤4： 删除新创建的release
helm delete vpc-client1.4 添加一个简单的模板调用
name: 成资源被认为不太好的做法。名称应该是唯一版本。所以我们希望通过插入release名称来生成一个名称字段。
提示： name: 由于 DNS 系统的限制，该字段限制为 63 个字符。因此，release 名称限制为 53 个字符。
简单修改一下vpc.yaml
apiVersion: kubeovn.io/v1
kind: Vpc
metadata:
name: vpc{{.Release.Name}}模板指令 {{.Release.Name}} 将 release 名称注入模板。传递给模板的值可以认为是 namespace 对象，其中 dot（.）分隔每个 namespace 元素
Release 前面的前一个小圆点表示我们从这个范围的最上面的 namespace 开始（我们将稍微谈一下 scope）。所以我们可以这样理解 .Release.Name："从顶层命名空间开始，找到 Release 对象，然后在里面查找名为 Name 的对象"。
小技巧：
如果你想测试模板渲染，但实际上没有安装任何东西时，可以使用helm install --debug --dry-run ./mychart。这会将chart发送到k8s做渲染。但是不会安装chart，它会将渲染模板返回，以便可以看到输出
[root@k8s-master ~]# helm install --debug --dry-run vpcins ./vpc-client
install.go:172: [debug] Original chart version: ""
install.go:189: [debug] CHART PATH: /root/vpc-client
NAME: vpcins

# Source: vpc-client/templates/vpc.yaml

NOTES:
1. Get the application URL by running these commands:
export POD_NAME=$(kubectl get pods --namespace default -l "app.kubernetes.io/name=vpc-client,app.kubernetes.io/instance=vpcins" -o jsonpath="{.items[0].metadata.name}")
export CONTAINER_PORT=$(kubectl get pod --namespace default $POD_NAME -o jsonpath="{.spec.containers[0].ports[0].containerPort}")
echo "Visit http://127.0.0.1:8080 to use your application"
kubectl --namespace default port-forward $POD_NAME 8080:$CONTAINER_PORT使用 --dry-run 可以更容易地测试代码，但不能确保 Kubernetes 本身会接受生成的模板。最好不要假定你的 chart 只要 --dry-run 成功而被安装。
