Running a dockerized application on Kubernetes cluster using helm chart

I have an application already running on a docker container. The goal is to have it run on a kubernetes cluster (minikube) using helm charts

For this, I have already setup minikube as the cluster, installed kubectl and helm and have it running. How do I run my docker application on the kubernetes cluster? Is there any good guide out there I could follow for the same as a starting point? Unfortunately, I was unable to figure this out in spite of lots of effort on searching for it.

Solution

  • All you need is:

    • write a helm chart
    • run helm commands to install that chart

    It would be better if you know about helm and it's stuffs. The official doc https://docs.helm.sh/ for helm is best.

    But for your needs, you will find what will have to be done by going through Packaged Kubernetes Deployments – Writing a Helm Chart. It is just similar what you need.

    Happy Helming!
