HelmSharp.Action

Package responsibility

HelmSharp.Action is the high-level facade for applications that want Helm-like operations from managed code: template, install/upgrade, uninstall, rollback, status, history, get, lint, package, repository, and registry-oriented commands.

When to install

Install this package when your product thinks in release workflows or command-style results:

dotnet add package HelmSharp.Action --version 1.1.0

Dependencies

This package references the rendering, chart, Kubernetes, release, repository, registry, storage, and post-renderer packages.

Main types

Type	Use it for
HelmClient / IHelmClient	Command-like SDK entry point.
HelmTemplateRequest	Render a chart without applying resources.
HelmUpgradeInstallRequest	Install or upgrade, including dry-run.
HelmUninstallRequest	Remove release resources.
HelmExecutionOptions	Centralized environment defaults.
IHelmOptionsProvider	Provide options from config, DI, or tenant context.
CommandResult	Capture stdout, stderr, and exit code.

Common combinations

• TemplateAsync for preview pages.
• UpgradeInstallAsync with DryRun = true for review workflows.
• UpgradeInstallAsync with DryRun = false only after approval.
• StatusAsync, HistoryAsync, GetManifestAsync, and GetValuesAsync for release inspection.

Current boundaries

HelmSharp does not shell out to helm. Some advanced plugin, provenance, OCI auth, and uncommon Kubernetes edge cases remain explicit compatibility boundaries.
