Helm Publish

GitHub Action to package and deploy your Helm charts to GitHub Pages

Based upon gatsby-gh-pages-action

Usage

This GitHub Action will run helm package for every chart folder in the charts directory of your repository and deploy it to GitHub Pages for you! Here's a basic workflow example:

name: Helm Publish

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - dev

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - uses: J12934/helm-gh-pages-action@master
        with:
          access-token: ${{ secrets.ACCESS_TOKEN }}

Knobs & Handles

This Action is fairly simple but it does provide you with a couple of configuration options:

• access-token: A GitHub Personal Access Token with the repo scope. This is required to push the site to your repo after Helm finished building it. You should store this as a secret in your repository. Provided as an input.

• deploy-branch: The branch expected by GitHub to have the static files needed for your site. For org and user pages it should always be master. This is where the packaged charts and index.yaml will be pushed to. Provided as an input. Defaults to master.

• charts-folder: Charts folder of your repository. Defaults to charts

Org or User Pages

Create a repository with the format <YOUR/ORG USERNAME>.github.io, push your helm sources to a branch other than master and add this GitHub Action to your workflow! 🚀😃

CNAME

You have a custom domain you would like to use? Fancy! 😎 This Action's got you covered! Assuming you have already set up your DNS provider as defined in the GitHub Pages docs, all we need next is a CNAME file at the root of your project with the domain you would like to use. For example:

imenrique.com

Notice that it's all capitals CNAME 😊.

That's It

Have fun building! ✨
