Installation for macOS

Installation for macOS

Install the helm CLI binary on your system:

1. Download the latest release
2. Unpack it (e.g. tar -zxvf <filename>)
3. Find the helm binary in the unpacked directory and move it to its desired destination (e.g. mv darwin-amd64/helm ~/bin/)
   • The desired destination should be listed in your $PATH environment variable (echo $PATH)

Proxy configuration

Set your HTTP proxy environment variables so that a chart repository can be added to your Helm repos in a later lab. It is recommended to set the lowercase and uppercase variables, as the helm command takes them all into account.

export HTTP_PROXY="http://<username>:<password>@<proxy>:<port>"
export HTTPS_PROXY="http://<username>:<password>@<proxy>:<port>"
export NO_PROXY="<noproxy-list>"
export http_proxy="http://<username>:<password>@<proxy>:<port>"
export https_proxy="http://<username>:<password>@<proxy>:<port>"
export no_proxy="<noproxy-list>"

Replace <username> and <password> with your credentials. If you have special characters in your password, escape them with their corresponding hexadecimal values according to this article .

Verification

Now, verify your installation .
