Autogenerating Helm Chart Documentation

The documentation for Magistrala Helm charts in charts/magistrala/README.md is generated using helm-docs, which extracts metadata from Chart.yaml and values.yaml. To update the documentation after changes, follow these steps:

Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure the following tools are installed:

  1. Helm
    Make sure Helm is installed on your system. If not, follow the Helm installation guide to get started.

  2. Helm Docs Tool
    The documentation for the Magistrala Helm charts is autogenerated using the helm-docs tool. To install helm-docs, use the following command:

    go install github.com/norwoodj/helm-docs/cmd/helm-docs@latest

    If Go is not installed, follow the Go installation guide.

Step 1: Navigate to Your Project Directory

First, move to the directory where the Helm charts are stored. For this project, the command would be:

cd devops

Step 2: Run the helm-docs Command

Generate or update the documentation for your Helm charts by running:

helm-docs

This command will parse the charts in the charts directory and update the charts/magistrala/README.md file. A typical successful run looks like this:

INFO[2024-09-11T11:34:20+03:00] Found Chart directories [charts/magistrala]
INFO[2024-09-11T11:34:20+03:00] Generating README Documentation for chart charts/magistrala

Step 3: Commit and Push the Changes

After helm-docs has updated the documentation, review the changes, and then commit and push them to your Git repository:

git add charts/magistrala/README.md
git commit -m "Update Helm chart documentation"
git push origin <your-branch>

Replace <your-branch> with the branch you are working on.
