mh simplifies multi-chart Helm workflows by rendering ephemeral Helm
chart override files based on templates populated with values from mh
YAML config files.

In other words: We heard you like templates, so we templated your Helm value
overrides.

Usage:
  mh [command]

Available Commands:
  apply       Apply apps
  destroy     Destroy apps
  help        Help about any command
  license     Print license information.
  simulate    Simulate apps
  status      Get status of apps
  version     Print version information.

Flags:
  -c, --config string     config file (you can instead set MH_CONFIG)
  -h, --help              help for mh
  -j, --json              set logging to JSON format

Use "mh [command] --help" for more information about a command.

Getting Started

Install mh.

go get -u github.com/cisco-sso/mh

Select a kubectl context.

(In general, this is when you "choose a Kubernetes cluster" to manage.)

kubectl config get-contexts
kubectl config use-context minikube

Select a mh config.

(There's usally one mh config per kubetl context, but we've left it open ended so that multple teams can more easily work together on one cluster.)

export MH_CONFIG="/path/to/clusters/minikube/mh/main.yaml"

Get status of everything at context "minkube" managed by this mh config.

(This basically runs helm status for each app you target.)

mh status
# ^ get status for all apps in `main.yaml`

mh status wordpress
# ^ get status for just these app(s)

Simulate app upgrades (or simulate install of apps, as needed).

(For each app you target, simulate runs a Helm upgrade/install with debug and dry-run modes enabled.)

mh simulate
# ^ simulate install/upgrade for all apps in `main.yaml`

mh simulate --printRendered
# ^ simulate install/upgrade for all apps in `main.yaml`
#   (verbosely printing app template renderings)

mh simulate wordpress
# ^ simulate install/upgrade just these app(s),
#   even if they are not in `main.yaml`

mh simulate --set "wordpress.image.tag=1.0.0"
# ^ simulate by setting mh values on the command line
#   (can specify multiple or separate values with commas: key1=val1,key2=val2)

Apply app upgrades (or install apps, as needed).

(For each app you target, apply runs a Helm upgrade/install).

mh apply
# ^ apply install/upgrade for all apps in `main.yaml`

mh apply --printRendered
# ^ apply install/upgrade for all apps in `main.yaml`
#   (verbosely printing app template renderings)

mh apply wordpress
# ^ apply install/upgrade just these app(s),
#   even if they are not in `main.yaml`

mh apply --set "wordpress.image.tag=1.0.0"
# ^ apply by setting mh values on the command line
#   (can specify multiple or separate values with commas: key1=val1,key2=val2)

Destroy apps (if they are known to Helm).

(For each app you target, apply runs a Helm delete without purge).

mh destroy
# ^ destroy all apps in `main.yaml`

mh destroy wordpress
# ^ destroy just these app(s),
#   even if they are not in `main.yaml`

Log to JSON!

mh status foo --json 2>&1 | jq --slurp

Docker

docker run --rm \
  -v $(pwd):/platform-deploy \
  -v ~/.kube:/.kube \
  -v ~/.helm:/root/.helm \
  -e KUBECONFIG=/.kube/mycluster.example.org \
  -e MH_CONFIG=/platform-deploy/clusters/mycluster.example.org/mh/main.yaml \
  ciscosso/mh simulate

NOTE: The MH apps and config in this example exist in the platform-deploy tree.

Apps should be stored relative to MH config. (use configPath instead of path).

appSources:
  - name: apps
    kind: configPath
    source: ../../../apps
