+# Helm
+This project has a helm chart, in order to use it, the Docker image must first be built and loaded into a repo.
+
+After this is done, copy the file from `helm/values.yml` and fill it in. Here you can see a small example with fields that have to be filled in:
+
+````yml
+deployment:
+    image: <url to image>
+    files:
+        # Location of .env file
+        env: <path to .env file>
+        # Location of storage folder
+        storage: <path to storage folder>
+
+ingress:
+    url: <url to reach shaark instance>
+    #optional
+    annotations:
+        cert-manager.io/issuer: "<issuer name when used cert-manager>"
+````
+if no cert-manager is used, the appropriate certificate must be stored under <name>-secret-tls as secret
+
+Once this has been done, you can install the helm chart as follows: `helm install <name> ./helm --values <edit-values-file>`
+
+The installation comes without mysql and redis if this is required, this must be installed externally by existing charts from the intenet and then the corresponding kubernetes-url must be stored in the .env as host
