     1  ## helm init
     2  
     3  initialize Helm on both client and server
     4  
     5  ### Synopsis
     6  
     7  
     8  
     9  This command installs Tiller (the helm server side component) onto your
    10  Kubernetes Cluster and sets up local configuration in $HELM_HOME (default ~/.helm/)
    11  
    12  As with the rest of the Helm commands, 'helm init' discovers Kubernetes clusters
    13  by reading $KUBECONFIG (default '~/.kube/config') and using the default context.
    14  
    15  To set up just a local environment, use '--client-only'. That will configure
    16  $HELM_HOME, but not attempt to connect to a remote cluster and install the Tiller
    17  deployment.
    18  
    19  When installing Tiller, 'helm init' will attempt to install the latest released
    20  version. You can specify an alternative image with '--tiller-image'. For those
    21  frequently working on the latest code, the flag '--canary-image' will install
    22  the latest pre-release version of Tiller (e.g. the HEAD commit in the GitHub
    23  repository on the master branch).
    24  
    25  To dump a manifest containing the Tiller deployment YAML, combine the
    26  '--dry-run' and '--debug' flags.
