The chart-verifier CLI tool allows you to validate the Helm chart against a configurable list of checks. The tool ensures that the Helm charts include the associated metadata and formatting, and are distribution ready.
The tool allows users to validate a Helm chart URL and provides a report where each check has a positive or negative result. A negative result from a check indicates a problem with the chart, which needs correction. It ensures that the Helm chart works seamlessly on Red Hat OpenShift and can be submitted as a certified Helm chart in the OpenShift Helm Repository.
The input is provided through the command-line interface, with the only required input parameter being the uri option. The output is represented through a YAML format with descriptions added in a human-readable format. The report should be submitted with a full set of checks thus validating the Helm chart.
The tool provides the following features:
- Helm chart verification: Verifies if a Helm chart is compliant with a certain set of independent checks with no particular execution order.
- Red Hat OpenShift Certified chart validation: Verifies the Helm chart's readiness for being certified and submitted in the OpenShift Helm Repository.
- Report generation: Generates a verification report in a YAML format.
- Customizable checks: Defines the checks you wish to execute during the verification process.
