The Values Object and Nested Access

Reading user configuration deep in the tree.

Meet the Values Object

Inside a template, .Values holds every setting from your chart's values.yaml plus any overrides you passed. It is your config tree.

Reading a Top-Level Key

A top-level key like replicaCount becomes .Values.replicaCount. The dot path mirrors the YAML structure exactly. 🌳

# values.yaml
replicaCount: 3

# template
replicas: {{ .Values.replicaCount }}
