Host helm chart into a repository

[viveksinghggits]

Now that we have the helm chart, after this PR, we should now host that helm chart so that the controller can be installed using helm. We can use github pages to helm chart.

ref: https://github.com/FoundationDB/fdb-kubernetes-operator/pull/59#issuecomment-592434661

This might help host the chart https://github.com/helm/chart-releaser

Do we have examples of other operators following this pattern?

[viveksinghggits]

Hey @brownleej, This document has an example under GitHub Pages example section.

[brownleej]

That's an example from Helm. I was looking for an example of another operator in real usage following this pattern.

Got you, let me see if I can find something out.

Since https://github.com/helm/charts is not maintained anymore it seems like https://artifacthub.io is the right place + https://operatorhub.io. I think it makes sense to publish the operator on these platforms to make it easier for people to find the operator.

There is no "right" place persay, because the landscape is such that people are strung across different ways of consuming operators.

The chart releaser is nice. Kubernetes-sigs uses the github action here to produce both nfs-subdir-external-provisioner and nfs-ganesha-server-and-external-provisioner.

The work is pretty much just this. Seems like low hanging fruit to accomplish.
