Just run

helm template -f secrets://secrets.yaml

[Nikhilsrh07]

actually, I'm looking for this solution. here I'm looking for already encrypted secrets in a file where those can be populated in helm template. I'm not looking for just checking a file.

helm templates secrets -f secrets app . which is similar to (helm secrets -f secrets app .)

I dont get it

[Nikhilsrh07]

usually after we install helm secrets plugin.
this command helm secrets upgrade -f secrets app . works if we upgrade helm-chart with secrets
and also helm template -f secrets app . also works.
here I haven't upgraded helm chart with secrets but encrypted (sealed secrets)them and want to test them with template.
I'm here trying to pass encrypted secrets through values file.
helm secrets template -f secrets .yaml app .
