What is this?

Helm.NET provides a .NET client backed by Helm's Go action library. The managed API calls a native library through a small C ABI shim and does not launch the Helm command-line executable.

Supported platforms

Helm.NET includes native libraries for Windows, Linux, and macOS on both x64 and ARM64:

Operating system x64 ARM64
Windows win-x64 win-arm64
Linux linux-x64 linux-arm64
macOS osx-x64 osx-arm64

Install a chart

using Helm.NET;

var helm = new HelmClient(new HelmClientOptions { Namespace = "apps" });

helm.AddRepository("bitnami", "https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami");

helm.UpdateRepositories();

var release = helm.Install("my-release", "bitnami/nginx", createNamespace: true, wait: true);

// Search indexes return resolvable references and one result per version.
var charts = helm.SearchCharts("cilium");
var rendered = helm.Template("preview", "cilium/cilium", version: "1.20.3");

// Render the chart and values from a stored release revision without resolving a repository reference.
var installedChart = helm.TemplateRelease("my-release");

// Retrieve the manifest saved by Helm for the deployed revision.
var deployedManifest = helm.GetManifest("my-release");

List releases

IReadOnlyList<HelmRelease> releases = helm.ListReleases();
foreach (var release in releases)
    Console.WriteLine($"{release.Name}: {release.Status} ({release.Chart})");

The action API supports ListReleases, SearchCharts, Template, TemplateRelease, GetManifest, Install, Upgrade, Uninstall, Status, History, Rollback, GetValues, and chart repository operations. HelmRelease.ChartName and ChartVersion expose the chart metadata separately from the display string in Chart. Configure kubeconfig, context, namespace, repository paths, registry config, and the release storage driver with HelmClientOptions.

The Go shim source and pinned Helm dependency are in native/helm-shim. Native libraries are packaged under runtimes/<rid>/native.
