How an helm chart have an attribute with value contain {{ }}

Question

In a helm chart, we can define value as something like {{ Values.name }}, which will be replaced by the real value defined in values.yaml. But if the original value has the similar format such as {{name}}, when trying to install that chart, it will fail due to error that "name" is not defined. Is there any way to handle this?

Answer 1

You can embed it as a literal string with backticks:

{{`{{ "name" }}`}}
