This is a Helm plugin to help users determine if there's an update available for their installed charts. It works by reading your locally cached index files from the chart repositories (via helm repo update) and checking the version against the latest deployed version of your charts in the Kubernetes cluster.
$ helm repo update
$ helm whatup
$ helm plugin install https://github.com/bacongobbler/helm-whatup
The above will fetch the latest binary release of helm whatup and install it.
If you would like to handle the build yourself, instead of fetching a binary, this is how recommend doing it.
First, set up your environment:
- You need to have Go installed. Make sure to set
$GOPATH - If you don't have Glide installed, this will install it into
$GOPATH/binfor you.
Clone this repo into your $GOPATH using git.
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/bacongobbler
git clone https://github.com/bacongobbler/helm-whatup
Then run the following to get running.
$ cd helm-whatup
$ make bootstrap build
$ SKIP_BIN_INSTALL=1 helm plugin install $GOPATH/src/github.com/bacongobbler/helm-whatup
That last command will skip fetching the binary install and use the one you built.
