Using base-chart

base-chart is published as an OCI Helm chart. Install it directly or add it as a dependency inside your own chart.

Option A — install directly​

helm install my-app oci://ghcr.io/my-github-repo/helm/base-chart \
  --version 1.2.0 \
  -f values.yaml

Option B — add as a dependency​

In your Chart.yaml:

dependencies:
  - name: base-chart
    version: "1.2.0"
    repository: oci://ghcr.io/my-github-repo/helm
    alias: app   # optional — if set, wrap all values under the alias key
helm dependency update
helm install my-release . -f values.yaml

If you used alias: app, your values.yaml must nest everything under app:

app:
  deployments:
    - name: my-api
      image:
        repository: my-org/my-api
        tag: "1.0.0"

Without an alias, write values at the top level as shown in the examples below.

Upgrade​

helm upgrade my-app oci://ghcr.io/my-github-repo/helm/base-chart \
  --version 1.2.0 \
  -f values.yaml

Uninstall​

helm uninstall my-app

Minimal values.yaml​

deployments:
  - name: my-api
    image:
      repository: my-org/my-api
      tag: "1.0.0"
    service:
      enabled: true
      port: 8080

See the values reference for all available options, or use the UI configurator to build the file interactively.
