About:
Helm-Docs automatically generates comprehensive markdown documentation for Helm charts by parsing values.yaml files and chart metadata. It extracts default values, descriptions, and types to produce consistent, up-to-date documentation without manual effort. This tool streamlines chart maintenance and improves discoverability for Kubernetes deployments.
Key Features:
  • Automatic documentation generation from values.yaml
  • Customizable templates for consistent output
  • Support for chart dependencies and metadata
  • CLI tool with simple integration into CI/CD pipelines
Use Cases:
  • Generating documentation for internal Helm chart repositories
  • Automating doc updates in CI/CD workflows
  • Standardizing chart documentation across teams
Alternatives:
  • helm-readme-generator – Similar functionality but less mature ecosystem
  • helm-schema – Focuses on JSON schema generation rather than full documentation
