The above parameters map to the env variables defined in [bitnami/redis](http://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-redis). For more information please refer to the [bitnami/redis](http://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-redis) image documentation.

Specify each parameter using the `--set key=value[,key=value]` argument to `helm install`. For example,

```bash
$ helm install --name my-release \
  --set password=secretpassword \
    stable/redis
```

The above command sets the Redis server password to `secretpassword`.

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

```bash
$ helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml stable/redis
```

> **Tip**: You can use the default [values.yaml](values.yaml)
> **Note for minikube users**: Current versions of minikube (v0.24.1 at the time of writing) provision `hostPath` persistent volumes that are only writable by root. Using chart defaults cause pod failure for the Redis pod as it attempts to write to the `/bitnami` directory. Consider installing Redis with `--set persistence.enabled=false`. See minikube issue [1990](https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/1990) for more information.

## NetworkPolicy

To enable network policy for Redis, install
[a networking plugin that implements the Kubernetes NetworkPolicy spec](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/declare-network-policy#before-you-begin),
and set `networkPolicy.enabled` to `true`.

For Kubernetes v1.5 & v1.6, you must also turn on NetworkPolicy by setting
the DefaultDeny namespace annotation. Note: this will enforce policy for _all_ pods in the namespace:

    kubectl annotate namespace default "net.beta.kubernetes.io/network-policy={\"ingress\":{\"isolation\":\"DefaultDeny\"}}"

With NetworkPolicy enabled, only pods with the generated client label will be
able to connect to Redis. This label will be displayed in the output
after a successful install.

## Persistence

The [Bitnami Redis](https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-redis) image stores the Redis data and configurations at the `/bitnami` path of the container.

By default, the chart mounts a [Persistent Volume](http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/persistent-volumes/) at this location. The volume is created using dynamic volume provisioning. If a Persistent Volume Claim already exists, specify it during installation.

By default, the chart persists both data and configuration. If you wish to persist only the data directory set `persistence.path` to `/bitnami/redis/data` and `persistence.subPath` to `redis/data`.

### Existing PersistentVolumeClaim

1. Create the PersistentVolume
1. Create the PersistentVolumeClaim
1. Install the chart

```bash
$ helm install --set persistence.existingClaim=PVC_NAME redis
```

## Metrics

The chart optionally can start a metrics exporter for [prometheus](https://prometheus.io). The metrics endpoint (port 9121) is exposed in the service. Metrics can be scraped from within the cluster using something similar as the described in the [example Prometheus scrape configuration](https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/blob/master/documentation/examples/prometheus-kubernetes.yml). If metrics are to be scraped from outside the cluster, the Kubernetes API proxy can be utilized to access the endpoint.
