This tool allows you to run periodic scanning of the sb6183 cable modem and save the results to Influxdb

## TL;DR;

```console
$ helm repo add billimek https://billimek.github.io/helm-repo
$ helm install billimek/modem-stats
```

## Installing the Chart

To install the chart with the release name `my-release`:

```console
$ helm install --name my-release billimek/modem-stats
```
## Uninstalling the Chart

To uninstall/delete the `my-release` deployment:

```console
$ helm delete my-release --purge
```

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

## Configuration

The configuration is set as a block of text through a configmap and mouted as a file in /src/config.ini Any value in this text block should match the defined sb6183 configuration. There are several values here that will have to match our kubernetes configuration.

## Configuration

The following tables lists the configurable parameters of the Sentry chart and their default values.

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

```console
$ helm install --name my-release \
  --set onfig.influxdb.host=some-influx-host \
    billimek/modem-stats
```

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

```console
$ helm install --name my-release -f values.yaml billimek/modem-stats
```

Read through the [values.yaml](values.yaml) file. It has several commented out suggested values.
