Kubecost helm chart

Helm chart for the Kubecost project, which is created to monitor and manage Kubernetes resource spend. Please contact team@kubecost.com or visit kubecost.com for more info.

While Helm is the recommended install path, these resources can also be deployed with the following command:

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubecost/cost-analyzer-helm-chart/master/kubecost.yaml --namespace kubecost

The following table lists the commonly used configurable parameters of the Kubecost Helm chart and their default values.

Testing

To perform local testing do next:

• install locally kind according to documentation.
• install locally ct according to documentation.
• create local cluster using kind
  use image version from kind docker registry

kind create cluster --image kindest/node:<set-image-tag>

• perform ct execution

ct install  --chart-dirs="." --charts="." --helm-repo-extra-args="--set=global.prometheus.enabled=false --set=global.grafana.enabled=false"
