Chart Contents

A chart is an archived set of Kubernetes resource manifests that make up a distributed application. You can learn more from the Helm 3 documentation. Others exist and can be easily created, for example by a vendor providing software. Charts are similar to the use of independent YUM repositories.

Chart.yaml

The Chart.yaml file contains some metadata about the Chart, like its name, version, keywords, and so on, in this case, for MariaDB.

values.yaml

The values.yaml file contains keys and values that are used to generate the release in your cluster. These values are replaced in the resource manifests using the Go templating syntax.

templates

The templates directory contains the resource manifests that make up this MariaDB application.
