EKS - Helm package

 ✅ 1. Package Your Helm Chart 

Navigate to your chart directory and run: 

bash 

CopyEdit 

cd helm-microservices/charts/microservice 
 
# Package the chart into a .tgz file 
helm package . 
 

This will output a file like: 

microservice-0.1.0.tgz 
 

 

✅ 2. (Optional) Push to Helm Repository 

If you're using a Helm repository (e.g., Amazon S3, GitHub Pages, or ChartMuseum), you can push it: 

Option A: Upload to S3 (example) 

aws s3 cp microservice-0.1.0.tgz s3://my-helm-repo/ 

 

✅ 4. Install Helm Chart into Prod EKS 

Now you can install your packaged chart to the production cluster: 

helm install service-a ~/helm-repo/microservice-0.1.0.tgz -f values/service-a.yaml 
helm install service-b ~/helm-repo/microservice-0.1.0.tgz -f values/service-b.yaml 
helm install service-c ~/helm-repo/microservice-0.1.0.tgz -f values/service-c.yaml
