     3  This document captures information about using Helm in specific Kubernetes
     4  environments.
     5  
     6  We are trying to add more details to this document. Please contribute via Pull
     7  Requests if you can.
     8  
     9  ## MicroK8s
    10  
    11  Helm can be enabled in [MicroK8s](https://microk8s.io) using the command: `microk8s.enable helm`
    12  
    13  ## MiniKube
    14  
    15  Helm is tested and known to work with [minikube](https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube).
    16  It requires no additional configuration.
    17  
    18  ## `scripts/local-cluster` and Hyperkube
    19  
    20  Hyperkube configured via `scripts/local-cluster.sh` is known to work. For raw
    21  Hyperkube you may need to do some manual configuration.
    22  
    23  ## GKE
    24  
    25  Google's GKE hosted Kubernetes platform enables RBAC by default. You will need to create a service account for tiller, and use the --service-account flag when initializing the helm server.
    26  
    27  See [Tiller and role-based access control](https://docs.helm.sh/using_helm/#role-based-access-control) for more information.
    28  
    29  ## AKS
    30  
    31  Helm works with [Azure Kubernetes Service](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/kubernetes-helm). If using an RBAC-enabled AKS cluster, you need [a service account and role binding for the Tiller service](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/aks/kubernetes-helm#create-a-service-account).
    32  
    33  ## IKS
    34  
    35  Helm works with [IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/containers?topic=containers-getting-started). IKS cluster enables RBAC by default and this means you will need [a service account and role binding for the Tiller service](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/containers?topic=containers-helm#public_helm_install).
    36  
    37  ## Ubuntu with 'kubeadm'
    38  
    39  Kubernetes bootstrapped with `kubeadm` is known to work on the following Linux
    40  distributions:
    41  
    42  - Arch Linux
    43  - Ubuntu 16.04
    44  - Fedora release 25
    45  
    46  Some versions of Helm (v2.0.0-beta2) require you to `export KUBECONFIG=/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf`
    47  or create a `~/.kube/config`.
    48  
    49  ## Container Linux by CoreOS
    50  
    51  Helm requires that kubelet have access to a copy of the `socat` program to proxy connections to the Tiller API. On Container Linux the Kubelet runs inside of a [hyperkube](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/tree/master/cluster/images/hyperkube) container image that has socat. So, even though Container Linux doesn't ship `socat` the container filesystem running kubelet does have socat. To learn more read the [Kubelet Wrapper](https://coreos.com/kubernetes/docs/latest/kubelet-wrapper.html) docs.
    52  
    53  ## Openshift
    54  
    55  Helm works straightforward on OpenShift Online, OpenShift Dedicated, OpenShift Container Platform (version >= 3.6) or OpenShift Origin (version >= 3.6). To learn more read [this blog](https://blog.openshift.com/getting-started-helm-openshift/) post.
    56  
    57  ## Platform9
    58  
    59  Helm Client and Helm Server (Tiller) are pre-installed with [Platform9 Managed Kubernetes](https://platform9.com/managed-kubernetes/?utm_source=helm_distro_notes). Platform9 provides access to all official Helm charts through the App Catalog UI and native Kubernetes CLI. Additional repositories can be manually added. Further details are available in this [Platform9 App Catalog article](https://platform9.com/support/deploying-kubernetes-apps-platform9-managed-kubernetes/?utm_source=helm_distro_notes).
    60  
    61  ## DC/OS
    62  
    63  Helm (both client and server) has been tested and is working on Mesospheres DC/OS 1.11 Kubernetes platform, and requires
    64  no additional configuration.
    65  
    66  ## Kubermatic
    67  
    68  Helm works in user clusters that are created by Kubermatic without caveats. Since seed cluster can be setup up in different ways Helm support depends on them.
    69  
    70  ## KubeOne
    71  
    72  Helm works in clusters that are set up by KubeOne without caveats.
