helm acr

Helm plugin to push chart package to ChartMuseum.

This project is forked from chartmuseum/helm-push.

Some modifications has been made to meet the security requirements on Alibaba Cloud:

the plugin is able to talk to auth server to gain a Bearer Token.
the plugin is able to use the Bearer Token to download/upload charts to Chartmuseum.
the plugin registers acr(short for Alibaba Cloud Container Registry) as protocol name in plugin.yaml.
