flux create source helm

flux create source helm

Create or update a HelmRepository source

Synopsis

The create source helm command generates a HelmRepository resource and waits for it to fetch the index. For private Helm repositories, the basic authentication credentials are stored in a Kubernetes secret.

⚠️ Please note that this command is in preview and under development. While we try our best to not introduce breaking changes, they may occur when we adapt to new features and/or find better ways to facilitate what it does.
