[Helm](https://helm.sh/) is a tool for managing [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/) charts, which are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources. This container image simplifies the deployment and use of Helm by packaging it into a ready-to-use container.
## Usage
To run Helm, use the following comamand:
```ShellSession
# podman run --rm -it registry.opensuse.org/opensuse/helm:%%helm_version%% <helm-sub-command>
podman run --rm -it registry.opensuse.org/opensuse/helm:%%helm_version%% version
```
Refer to the full list of Helm commands, flags and environment variables, in the [official Helm documentation](https://helm.sh/docs/helm/helm/).
For a comprehensive guide on getting started with Helm, refer to the [official Helm tutorial](https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/getting_started/).
### Connecting Helm container to the Host's Kubernetes Cluster
To interact with a Kubernetes cluster running on the host, mount the Kubernetes configuration file (`kubeconfig`) into the container (use `--net=host` flag to allow container to use host’s network):
```ShellSession
podman run --rm -it --net=host -v /path/to/kubeconfig:/root/.kube/config registry.opensuse.org/opensuse/helm:%%helm_version%%
