Helm Installation

Install NebuaCloud components and related services with Helm-based workflows.

Install and configure Helm charts with custom values to tailor deployments to your specific needs. This guide covers advanced Helm installation options available in the NebuaCloud platform.

Overview

Helm is the package manager for Kubernetes, and NebuaCloud provides enhanced Helm installation capabilities including:

  • Custom values override
  • Chart validation
  • Dependency management
  • Rollback capabilities
  • Multi-environment support

Installation Methods

Marketplace Installation

  1. Navigate to Marketplace in your dashboard
  2. Browse or search for the desired chart
  3. Click "Install with Custom Values"
  4. Configure your custom values (see below)
  5. Click "Install"

Direct Installation Workflow

If you already know the chart you want to deploy, use the application or marketplace flow that lets you provide chart details directly.

Typical inputs include:

  • Chart repository URL
  • Chart name and version
  • Namespace
  • Custom values

Working With Values

Helm values control how the chart is rendered before deployment.

Common Areas To Review

  • Image repository and tag
  • Service type and exposed ports
  • Ingress hostnames and annotations
  • Persistence settings
  • Resource requests and limits

Recommended Workflow

  1. Start with the chart defaults
  2. Override only the settings needed for your environment
  3. Validate namespaces, ingress, and persistence values
  4. Install into a non-production environment first when possible
  5. Review workload health after deployment

Troubleshooting

Chart Installs But Pods Fail

  • Check the rendered values for incorrect image or environment settings
  • Review workload events and logs in Kubernetes views
  • Confirm referenced secrets, storage classes, and ingress settings exist

Service Is Not Reachable

  • Verify the service type and target ports
  • Review ingress hostname and controller configuration
  • Confirm TLS or certificate settings match the environment
