title: Install Crossplane
weight: 301
---
Crossplane can be easily installed into any existing Kubernetes cluster using
the regularly published Helm chart. The Helm chart contains all the custom
resources and controllers needed to deploy and configure Crossplane.
## Pre-requisites
* [Kubernetes cluster], minimum version `v1.16.0+`
* [Helm], minimum version `v3.0.0+`.
## Installation
Helm charts for Crossplane are currently published to the `stable` and `master`
channels.
### Stable
The stable channel is the most recent release of Crossplane that is considered
ready for the community.
```console
kubectl create namespace crossplane-system
helm repo add crossplane-stable https://charts.crossplane.io/stable
helm repo update
helm install crossplane --namespace crossplane-system crossplane-stable/crossplane
```
### Master
The `master` channel contains the latest commits, with all automated tests
passing. `master` is subject to instability, incompatibility, and features may
be added or removed without much prior notice. It is recommended to use one of
the more stable channels, but if you want the absolute newest Crossplane
installed, then you can use the `master` channel.
To install the Helm chart from master, you will need to pass the specific
version returned by the `search` command:
```console
kubectl create namespace crossplane-system
helm repo add crossplane-master https://charts.crossplane.io/master/
helm repo update
helm search repo crossplane-master --devel
helm install crossplane --namespace crossplane-system crossplane-master/crossplane --devel --version <version>
```
## Uninstalling the Chart
To uninstall/delete the `crossplane` deployment:
```console
helm delete crossplane --namespace crossplane-system
```
That command removes all Kubernetes components associated with Crossplane,
including all the custom resources and controllers.
## Configuration
The following tables lists the configurable parameters of the Crossplane chart

### Command Line
You can pass the settings with helm command line parameters. Specify each
parameter using the `--set key=value[,key=value]` argument to `helm install`.
For example, the following command will install Crossplane with an image pull
policy of `IfNotPresent`.
```console
helm install --namespace crossplane-system crossplane-stable/crossplane --set image.pullPolicy=IfNotPresent
```
### Settings File
Alternatively, a yaml file that specifies the values for the above parameters
(`values.yaml`) can be provided while installing the chart.
```console
helm install crossplane --namespace crossplane-system crossplane-stable/crossplane -f values.yaml
```
Here are the sample settings to get you started.
```yaml
replicas: 1
deploymentStrategy: RollingUpdate
image:
repository: crossplane/crossplane
tag: alpha
pullPolicy: Always
imagePullSecrets:
- dockerhub
```
