Fixes #11712
A change was made that when validation was turned off the Kubernetes
packages were building objects as a Table type. This was done for
display purposes. When details about the objects was going to be
printed as part of #10912.
This broke rollback, and possibly other functionality, as a Table
type was returned in some cases that needed the regular object.
This caused things to break silently.
The fix involved adding in a new Function (and interface) to
query for tables instead of the objects themselves. There was not
a clean way to add it to the existing function that covered all
cases.
A second problem was noticed along the way. When data was output
via status as YAML or JSON it was in the form of a table rather
than the objects themselves. This did not reflect expectations
and did not match the functionality in kubectl. The code was
updated to return a table when that was presented and the objects
when they are being output for YAML or JSON. The API also supports
this handling to SDK users can replicate this functionality.
API changes made here were never released. The functions were
developed for this release of Helm and only ever appeared in an
RC. In this case, they can be changed.

Helm
Helm is a tool for managing Charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources.
Use Helm to:
- Find and use popular software packaged as Helm Charts to run in Kubernetes
- Share your own applications as Helm Charts
- Create reproducible builds of your Kubernetes applications
- Intelligently manage your Kubernetes manifest files
- Manage releases of Helm packages
Helm in a Handbasket
Helm is a tool that streamlines installing and managing Kubernetes applications. Think of it like apt/yum/homebrew for Kubernetes.
- Helm renders your templates and communicates with the Kubernetes API
- Helm runs on your laptop, CI/CD, or wherever you want it to run.
- Charts are Helm packages that contain at least two things:
- A description of the package (
Chart.yaml) - One or more templates, which contain Kubernetes manifest files
- A description of the package (
- Charts can be stored on disk, or fetched from remote chart repositories (like Debian or RedHat packages)
Install
Binary downloads of the Helm client can be found on the Releases page.
Unpack the helm binary and add it to your PATH and you are good to go!
If you want to use a package manager:
- Homebrew users can use
brew install helm. - Chocolatey users can use
choco install kubernetes-helm. - Scoop users can use
scoop install helm. - GoFish users can use
gofish install helm. - Snapcraft users can use
snap install helm --classic
To rapidly get Helm up and running, start with the Quick Start Guide.
See the installation guide for more options, including installing pre-releases.
