Helm Profiles

This folder provides a variety of "profiles" for helm installation. While a user can just explicitly pass this with --values/-f.

However, Istio also provides a feature to bundle these with the charts, which is convenient when installing from remote charts. For details, see copy-templates Makefile target, and manifests/zzz_profile.yaml.

Any changes to this folder should have a make copy-templates applied afterwards.

Warning: unlike the IstioOperator profiles, these profiles cannot enable or disable certain components. As a result, users still need to ensure they install the appropriate charts to use a profile correctly. These requirements are documented in each profile.
