v2.8.0
14af25f

Helm 2.8.0 is a feature release. This version of Helm now has support for Kubernetes 1.9 resources which includes support for the new apps/v1 workloads API, selector immutability, and rollingUpdate as the default update strategy for all workloads from the apps/v1 and extensions/v1beta2 APIs.

This release contains a metric tonne of fixes and new features. We would like to take the time to thank everyone who contributed to this release. We cannot thank you enough for your time and hard work debugging issues, submitting tickets, contributing patches or crafting new features that extend Helm's usefulness. ❤️

The community keeps growing, and we'd love to see you there.

  • Join the discussion in Kubernetes Slack:
    • #helm-users for questions and just to hang out
    • #helm-dev for discussing PRs, code, and bugs
    • #charts for discussing about the official Kubernetes Charts repository
  • Hang out at the Public Developer Call: Thursday, 9:30 Pacific via Zoom
  • Test, debug, and contribute charts: GitHub/kubernetes/charts

Installation and Upgrading

Download Helm 2.8. The common platform binaries are here:

Once you have the client installed, upgrade Tiller with helm init --upgrade.

The Quickstart Guide will get you going from there. For upgrade instructions or detailed installation notes, check the install guide. You can also use a script to install on any system with bash.

What's Next

  • 2.8.1 will contain only bug fixes.
  • 2.9.0 is the next feature release. While it is likely to have some notable features, we will continue to prioritize stability and reliability over major feature additions.
