Ready-to-install charts in Kubchi

Kubchi lists the Helm charts available from the cluster's pack repositories on Install Pack. When you select a chart, Kubchi installs it as a Pack. Each chart can provide its own versions, description, installation documentation, and configuration form.

The chart list is not the same on every cluster. Available repositories, chart visibility, and your role permissions determine what appears. Open Install Pack in the current project for the up-to-date list.

A chart contains the resource templates and default values for an application. A pack repository provides Kubchi and Pack Operator with the location and access details needed to retrieve that chart. The repository used for installation appears on the chart card; the Repository filter only changes which cards are visible.

A cluster-scoped repository is represented by ClusterPackRepository. A namespace-scoped repository is represented by PackRepository and can only be used by Packs in that namespace. See choosing a repository scope for the technical details.

Open Kubchi from the project, then select Install Pack. Each card shows the chart name, a short description, and its repository. If the chart has a category, the card shows that as well.

To narrow the list:

• Enter the chart name in Search.
• Select one or more options under Repository.
• Select Select all to include repositories that are not selected by default.
• Select Documentation on a card to read the chart guide before installation.

After selecting the chart, select Next step. Charts with a form open the form-based installation page. If a chart has no form, Kubchi opens Yaml Editor. Continue with installing your first ready-to-use pack.

Technical documentation for charts developed and maintained by Kubit is kept in the separate top-level Managed Charts section.

Kubchi initially selects the newest listed chart version. After selecting Next step, you can choose another version from Chart Version. Last Revision determines whether the version constraint follows compatible revisions or remains fixed to the selected version.

The Readme and Helm Template tabs load content for the selected version. If the guide or rendered Helm output differs between versions, change the version first and then review both tabs again. See chart version selection for the exact version constraint and automatic upgrade behavior.

Clear Search and select Select all under Repository. If the chart is still missing, check that the project is connected to the expected cluster and that the repository is available to that cluster or namespace.

The chart may be disabled for display in the panel, the repository may not have synchronized yet, or your role may not have the required permission. Ask an organization or cluster administrator to check the repository and project permissions.

If you already have a Pack manifest but the chart has no form, use Install pack via editor. The Pack manifest reference explains the required structure.
