How can i override the values.yaml of a helm chart in helmfile….e.g. If i have the helm chart in that say we have a variable set to env=laptop now on runtime i want to override the value to env=single…so how can i do that…

Andrew Nazarov avatar

Basically, this could be done via values:, depending on what you have in the original values.yaml of your helm chart. I.e.

releases:
  - name: your_name
    namespace: your_namespace
    chart: your_chart
    version: ~0.1.0
    values:
      - env: single

or you could prepare the dedicated file with all the values or go templates and use it instead of the inline form. It’s possible to use set:, but I wouldn’t suggest using it. More on that straight here: https://github.com/roboll/helmfile#configuration.

Guys, Its query related to ansible tower, Just thought of posting here to check whether you guys had any knowledge about this issue. I’ve installed Ansible Tower 3. 5 on centos7(Which is EC2 Instance), Whenever I try to lauch a Job thorough template, I get following error : The vault password file /var/lib/awx/.vault_pass was not found

I’ve created .valut_pass.txt in the above directory and try to re-ran the Job it is failed, Then I try to update .vault_pass in home ./~~~ directory and re-ran the Job still it is failed. Also I made reference to .valut_pass in bash profile also by reference the path (ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE=~~~vault_pass.txt) still it failed when I try to run the job.

Also I tried to remove the reference(Just for testing) from ansible.cfg(User one, which is there in my Ansible Tower Set up) to see whether Job will run, Still it failed,
