Currently, there is no way to pass files external to the chart during `helm install`. So if you are asking users to supply data, it must be loaded using `helm install -f` or `helm install --set`.

Before we get to the nuts-and-bolts of writing those templates, there is file naming convention that deserves mention:

* The `NOTES.txt` is one exception

When you are working with string data, you are always safer quoting the

But when working with integers _do not quote the values._ That can, in

To make it possible to include a template, and then perform an operation
on that template's output, Helm has a special `include` function:
```
{{ include "toYaml" $value | indent 2 }}
```gotpl

The above includes a template called `toYaml`, passes it `$value`, and
then passes the output of that template to the `indent` function.
then passes the output of that template to the `nindent` function. Using
the `{{- ... | nindent _n_ }}` pattern makes it easier to read the `include`
in context, because it chomps the whitespace to the left (including the
previous newline), then the `nindent` re-adds the newline and indents
the included content by the requested amount.

## Creating Image Pull Secrets
Image pull secrets are essentially a combination of _registry_, _username_, and _password_. You may need them in an application you are deploying, but to create them requires running _base64_ a couple of times. We can write a helper template to compose the Docker configuration file for use as the Secret's payload. Here is an example:
First, assume that the credentials are defined in the `values.yaml` file like so:
```
