helm install will fetch remote, run any hooks, link everything in cache directly to $HELM_HOME
helm plugin install for local development pointing at directories
When plugin is executed, sets up all environment variables needed
Tiller-side plugins are also possible:
Currently, community asks you to
- add the tag helm-plugin to your project in Github
- submit a PR to related section
Proposed items: - helm create for base template of plugins - hub.kubeapps.com but for helm plugins
