Question

Set value in dependency of Helm chart

April 18, 2019

I want to use the postgresql chart as a requirements for my Helm chart.

My

requirements.yaml

file hence looks like this:

dependencies:
  - name: "postgresql"

    version: "3.10.0"

    repository: "@stable"

In the postgreSQL Helm chart I now want to set the username with the property

postgresqlUsername

Where do I have to specify this property in my project so that it gets propagated to the postgreSQL dependency?

values.yaml

file, have a section that contains

postgresql:

  postgresUsername: ....

  postgresPassword: ....
  ...

That is, all values under the

postgresql

key will override the child (

postgresql

) chart's

values.yaml

values. Note that if you have aliased the

postgresql

dependency chart to another name in your

requirements.yaml

, you should use that other name instead of

postgresql

.
