Repository Access

To access Kobil chart repository and credentials for the customer, ChartMuseum is being used.

The Kobil Chart repository is currently (Feb 2021) hosted on AWS accessible by URL: https://charts.kobil.com

To install mPower onto a kubernetes platform the mPower helm chart package is required, along with credential set to get access to the Kobil image repository for pulling the Kobil service images.
Here the Kobil Chart repository is hosting the helm chart package (*.tgz archives) covering all helm charts to run helm install command.

To make use of "helm" accessing a remote chart repository(repo), the repo needs to be added before running helm install command action. Find official docu: https://helm.sh/docs/helm/helm_repo_add/

To add the Kobil chart repo make use of the Kobil provided credential-set and do then:

 helm repo add kobil https://charts.kobil.com --username <username> --password <password>  

Once adding the repository to the helm context did work you may find the Kobil repo listed in the "helm repo list" output:

Once helm is able to access the Kobil Chart repo - it is possible to browse the Kobil chart packages.
