I've found this:
<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/guides/crosswalk/kubernetes/apps/#deploy-a-helm-chart>

but man, I miss simplicity of `helm install `
I'm not managing to convert this to python

i rewrote it in pulumi but mainly because i wanted to learn pulumi at the time

not sure about python soryr, i use typescript version

what are you struggling with? I've done this with typescript but can quickly throw a python example together if you need?

well mainly, why do we need `transformations` and how to convert it to python...

you dont need that, its an example of if you wanted to put it in a different namespace thats all

in the real world you'd configure that normally by specifying the helm chart values for the namespace options, but transformations lets you do things which arent supported by the helm chart values

as <@UEU2M37GX> says, transformations are optional. They are extremely useful in situations where your helm chart doesn't have a configuration option in the `values.yaml`. I use them often for things like charts that don't support podsecurity policies

I'm having even more basic problems...
```import pulumi_kubernetes
pulumi_kubernetes.helm.v3.Chart('nginx', config={}```
has error
`AttributeError: module 'pulumi_kubernetes' has no attribute 'helm`

but according to the docs it has
<https://www.pulumi.com/docs/reference/pkg/python/pulumi_kubernetes/helm/v3/>

ok, time to get hands dirty I guess :disappointed:

ahhh... I MUST import it first, can't use it directly :disappointed:
`from pulumi_kubernetes.helm import v3`
and even after this it's not that easy as in TS :disappointed:
I probably miss examples how to use helm in python

I thought we had an example in our examples repo, but you're right! We don't. I've cut this issue to get that fixed
<https://github.com/pulumi/examples/issues/671>

hmmm, I can make some draft that might help...

```nginx = Chart('nginx', config=ChartOpts(
    repo='stable',
    chart='nginx-ingress',
    version='0.30.0',
    namespace=b81_namespace.metadata['name']
), opts=ResourceOptions(provider=k8s_provider))```
in case you'll need it...

just... `helm list` does not see it anymore but I can leave without it

and it can't recognize the `Deployment`  so pulumi tries to apply it each time when i run `pulumi up`...  hmmm

I don't want to spam but,
`helm list` should not work anyway because it's managed by pulumi (althought it would be cool if to use help list)
Another thing that I've learn is that I must have helm on my machine + configured `helm repo add stable <https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com>`
