Build Manifests

Use this skill to build Kubernetes manifests when you have a kustomization.yaml that requires Helm chart inflation.

Instructions

  1. Navigate to the directory containing the kustomization.yaml.
  2. Run the following command to build the manifests:
    kustomize build . --enable-helm --helm-command helm
    

Troubleshooting Helm Issues

If the build fails due to missing charts or dependency issues:

  1. Update Dependencies: Navigate to the directory containing Chart.yaml (if applicable) or the kustomization, and run:
    helm dependency update
    
  2. Check Helm Repo: Ensure the required repositories are added:
    helm repo list
    
  3. Environment: If kustomize cannot find the helm binary, verify the path or explicitly set --helm-command to the full path of the helm executable.
