Azure-devops-docs: Helm Task doesn't support Helm 3.

[Cutux]

Hello,

Currently I'm trying to package my chart in Azure Devops using the Helm task, first I'm installing version 3.0.1 and it completes fine, but when I run 'helm package' I get the following error:

/opt/hostedtoolcache/helm/3.0.1/x64/linux-amd64/helm package --save --destination home/vsts/work/1/a/k8s/helm --values /home/vsts/work/1/s/Api-Search-Upload/build/azure-devops/values.yaml /home/vsts/work/1/s/stin-pipelines/deploy/k8s/helm/stin-microservices
Error: unknown flag: --save
##[error]Error: unknown flag: --save

This is blocking our releases, so please I hope you guys can help us.

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Hey @Cutux,

I had the same issue using the HelmDeploy@0 task in a YAML pipeline. The issue appears to be that the 'save' option is set to 'true' by default, but this can be suppressed by setting it to false in the YAML, e.g. --

          - task: HelmDeploy@0
            displayName: Helm package
            inputs:
              command: package
              save: false
              chartPath: $(CHART_DIRECTORY)
              destination: $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)
              arguments: --app-version $(Build.BuildNumber)

You may have figured this since, but posting in case anyone else hits this issue as well.

Happy Helming!
