there s examples here <https www pulumi com docs reference pkg kubernetes helm v3 chart set chart values> basically use the same structure the chart takes in its values yaml

There it creates a new Dictionary inline I have a yaml file with the overrides standing ready that I used to pass to the helm cli that I want to use I don t want to re code every helm configuration I ve ever written again

you have the full capability of your programming language I think you re using dotnet so you can read the YAML file from the disk if needed and then encode it into a variable

Reading the docs I got dragged into `Func lt ImmutableDictionary lt string object gt ` and transformation etc is there no real helper class that can easily do that

nice-eye-54931 · Answer

Yes I m using dotnet

I m not the most familiar with dotnet I m afraid but we don t have a helper class available to do it There may be third party libraries out there that do it this looks reasonably promising <https github com aaubry YamlDotNet issues 332>

Tnx for the hint but unfortunately there seems to be no easy way to convert it into the format that Pulumi expects it The docs mention something about multiple files but no example on how that should work unfortunately

I found this but not a satisfactory answer unfortunately <https github com pulumi pulumi kubernetes issues 659>

I just took a look at the implementation of Helm charts and this is a real deal breaker for me My use case really depends on helm being installed as helm releases not just the templated version of it With the current implementation pulumi is just not a viable option I ll stick to terraform to deploy to our clusters I was hoping it would just use the real helm cli underneath and I could code the execution of it

yup there is an open ticket to support helm releases <https github com pulumi pulumi kubernetes issues 1092>
