# Apollo Helm Chart
[Apollo](https://github.com/ctripcorp/apollo) is a reliable configuration management system.
## 1. Introduction
The apollo-service and apollo-portal charts create deployments for apollo-configservice, apollo-adminservice and apollo-portal, which utilize the kubernetes native service discovery.
## 2. Prerequisites
- Kubernetes 1.10+
- Helm 3
## 3. Add Apollo Helm Chart Repository
```bash
$ helm repo add apollo http://ctripcorp.github.io/apollo/charts
$ helm search repo apollo
```
## 4. Deployments of apollo-configservice and apollo-adminservice
### 4.1 Install
apollo-configservice and apollo-adminservice should be installed per environment, so it is suggested to indicate environment in the release name, e.g. `apollo-service-dev`
```bash
$ helm install apollo-service-dev \
--set configdb.host=1.2.3.4 \
--set configdb.userName=apollo \
--set configdb.password=apollo \
--set configdb.service.enabled=true \
--set configService.replicaCount=1 \
--set adminService.replicaCount=1 \
-n your-namespace \
apollo/apollo-service
```
Or customize it with values.yaml
```bash
$ helm install apollo-service-dev -f values.yaml -n your-namespace apollo/apollo-service
```
### 4.2 Uninstall
To uninstall/delete the `apollo-service-dev` deployment:
```bash
$ helm uninstall -n your-namespace apollo-service-dev
```
