I’m new to Helm, so this probably has “you’re doing it wrong” written all over it. So please be patient.
I’m currently trying to tweak the templates of an existing chart (not just the values), and I pulled the chart to a local directory from an external git repo. I’m experimenting with Minikube for now, because testing your changes locally at first is good.
So I made my changes, and tried to inspect the proposed changes to my own private cluster, with:
helm upgrade -i --force --values ~/myown.values.yaml --dependency-update --dry-run release-name ./charts/release-name -n a-new-namespace --create-namespace
..only to see my changes not take effect in the resulting manifests.
Is this the correct workflow? What else should I be doing?
