KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions Methods

AddHelmChart(IResourceBuilder<KindClusterResource>, string, string)extensionIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>

Adds a Helm chart to be deployed to the Kind cluster.

public static class KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions
{
    public static IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> AddHelmChart(
        this IResourceBuilder<KindClusterResource> builder,
        string name,
        string chartRef)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.cs#L36-L115

Parameters

builderIResourceBuilder<KindClusterResource>The Kind cluster resource builder.

namestringThe name of the Helm release.

chartRefstring Chart reference passed to helm install. Any form Helm supports: OCI ( oci://registry/chart), repo ( repo/chart), or local path ( ./charts/my-app).

Returns

IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>A reference to the ApplicationModel.IResourceBuilder`1.

WithChartVersion(IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>, string)extensionIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>

Sets the chart version (maps to helm install --version).

public static class KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions
{
    public static IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> WithChartVersion(
        this IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> builder,
        string version)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.cs#L129-L133

Parameters

builderIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>The Helm chart resource builder.

versionstringThe chart version.

Returns

IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>A reference to the ApplicationModel.IResourceBuilder`1.

WithCrdWaitRetry(IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>, int, TimeSpan?, TimeSpan?)extensionIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>

Retries Helm installs that race newly-created CRDs which have not reached the Established condition yet.

public static class KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions
{
    public static IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> WithCrdWaitRetry(
        this IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> builder,
        int maxAttempts = 3,
        TimeSpan? backoff = null,
        TimeSpan? crdWaitTimeout = null)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.cs#L213-L219

Parameters

builderIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>The Helm chart resource builder.

maxAttemptsintoptionalThe total number of install attempts. Must be 2 or greater.

backoffTimeSpan?optional The initial delay before retrying. Later retries back off exponentially. When null, Kind uses a 5 second initial backoff.

crdWaitTimeoutTimeSpan?optional The timeout used while waiting for newly discovered CRDs to become Established between retry attempts. When null, Kind uses a 5 minute timeout.

Returns

IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>A reference to the ApplicationModel.IResourceBuilder`1.

Remarks

This is useful for charts that create CRDs and immediately render custom resources that depend on those CRDs. Between attempts, Kind waits for newly observed CRDs to report Established.

WithHelmStringValue(IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>, string, string)extensionIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>

Sets a Helm value while preserving it as a string (maps to helm install --set-string key=value).

public static class KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions
{
    public static IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> WithHelmStringValue(
        this IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> builder,
        string key,
        string value)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.cs#L177-L183

Parameters

builderIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>The Helm chart resource builder.

keystringThe Helm value key.

valuestringThe Helm value.

Returns

IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>A reference to the ApplicationModel.IResourceBuilder`1.

Remarks

Use this overload when Helm would otherwise coerce the value into a numeric, boolean, or other non-string type. If the same key was previously configured with KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.WithHelmValue, the string-preserving value replaces it.

WithHelmValue(IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>, string, string)extensionIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>

Sets a Helm value (maps to helm install --set key=value).

public static class KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions
{
    public static IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> WithHelmValue(
        this IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> builder,
        string key,
        string value)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.cs#L149-L155

Parameters

builderIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>The Helm chart resource builder.

keystringThe Helm value key.

valuestringThe Helm value.

Returns

IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>A reference to the ApplicationModel.IResourceBuilder`1.

WithHelmValuesFile(IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>, string)extensionIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>

Adds a values file (maps to helm install -f path).

public static class KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions
{
    public static IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> WithHelmValuesFile(
        this IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource> builder,
        string path)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.cs#L233-L237

Parameters

builderIResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>The Helm chart resource builder.

pathstringThe path to the values file.

Returns

IResourceBuilder<KindHelmChartResource>A reference to the ApplicationModel.IResourceBuilder`1.

WithNamespace(IResourceBuilder<T>, string)extensionIResourceBuilder<T>

Sets the Kubernetes namespace for the deployment.

public static class KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions
{
    public static IResourceBuilder<T> WithNamespace<T>(
        this IResourceBuilder<T> builder,
        string @namespace)
    {
        // ...
    }
}

KindHelmChartResourceBuilderExtensions.cs#L257-L261

Parameters

builderIResourceBuilder<T>The resource builder.

namespacestringThe Kubernetes namespace.

Returns

IResourceBuilder<T>A reference to the ApplicationModel.IResourceBuilder`1.

Remarks

Helm chart resources pass --create-namespace. Manifest resources only pass --namespace to kubectl apply; they do not create the namespace.
