     3  manage a chart's dependencies

     5  ### Synopsis
     6  
     7  
     8  
     9  Manage the dependencies of a chart.
    10  
    11  Helm charts store their dependencies in 'charts/'. For chart developers, it is
    12  often easier to manage a single dependency file ('requirements.yaml')
    13  which declares all dependencies.
    14  
    15  The dependency commands operate on that file, making it easy to synchronize
    16  between the desired dependencies and the actual dependencies stored in the
    17  'charts/' directory.
    18  
    19  A 'requirements.yaml' file is a YAML file in which developers can declare chart
    20  dependencies, along with the location of the chart and the desired version.
    21  For example, this requirements file declares two dependencies:
    22  
    23      # requirements.yaml
    24      dependencies:
    25  	  - name: nginx
    26  	    version: "1.2.3"
    27  		repository: "https://example.com/charts"
    28  	  - name: memcached
    29  	    version: "3.2.1"
    30  		repository: "https://another.example.com/charts"
    31  
    32  The 'name' should be the name of a chart, where that name must match the name
    33  in that chart's 'Chart.yaml' file.
    34  
    35  The 'version' field should contain a semantic version or version range.
    36  
    37  The 'repository' URL should point to a Chart Repository. Helm expects that by
    38  appending '/index.yaml' to the URL, it should be able to retrieve the chart
    39  repository's index. Note: 'repository' cannot be a repository alias. It must be
    40  a URL.
    41  
    42  Starting from 2.2.0, repository can be defined as the path to the directory of
    43  the dependency charts stored locally. The path should start with a prefix of "file://".
    44  For example,
    45      # requirements.yaml
    46      dependencies:
    47  	- name: nginx
    48  	  version: "1.2.3"
    49  	  repository: "file://../dependency_chart/nginx"
    50  If the dependency chart is retrieved locally, it is not required to have the repository
    51  added to helm by "helm add repo". Version matching is also supported for this case.
    52
