[Raspberry Pi] Helm for K8s Cluster
I've successfully set up Helm as the package manager for my Raspberry Pi Kubernetes Cluster, enabling easy discovery, sharing, and use of Kubernetes software. After installing Helm, I set up the NGINX Ingress Controller using Helm for external access. Additionally, I configured MetalLB as a layer 2 load balancer to manage external IP addresses. Revisiting my Gitea setup, I updated the service configuration to leverage MetalLB, enhancing the overall scalability and efficiency of my Kubernetes environment on Raspberry Pi. Helm proves to be a valuable tool for managing Kubernetes packages effortlessly.
