<p>I have a docker-compose file containing 2 images to a security tool I am using. My challenge is to convert it into helm chart consisting of deployment.yaml and service.yaml. The docker-compose looks like this - </p>

<pre><code>  version: '3'

  services:

  nginx:
    ports:
      - "80:80"
      - "443:443"
    environment:
      - NG_SERVER_NAME=192.168.1.228
    links:
      - tomcat8
    image: continuumsecurity/iriusrisk-prod:nginx-prod-ssl
    container_name: iriusrisk-nginx
    volumes:
      - "./cert.pem:/etc/nginx/ssl/star_iriusrisk_com.crt"
      - "./key.pem:/etc/nginx/ssl/star_iriusrisk_com.key"

  tomcat8:
    environment:
      - IRIUS_DB_URL=jdbc\:postgresql\://192.168.1.228\:5432/iriusprod?user\=iriusprod&amp;password\=alongandcomplexpassword2523
      - IRIUS_EDITION=saas
      - IRIUS_EXT_URL=http\://192.168.1.228
      - grails_env=production
    image: continuumsecurity/iriusrisk-prod:tomcat8-2
    container_name: iriusrisk-tomcat8
</code></pre>

<p>There is a postgres server running too which I am able to convert into a helm chart and expose it to my ip (192.168.1.228) on port 5432. But for the iriusrisk and tomcat image which are linked to each other, I am not able to it figure out. This has been my solution for the deployment file for both. </p>

<p>deployment-tomcat.yaml</p>

<p>How should I go around solving this issue? I have looked at "linking" pods with each other but none of the solutions I tried worked. I am bit new to this hence I am still a bit confused about how to expose pods and connect to each other. </p>

<p>The <a href="https://kompose.io/" rel="noreferrer">kompose</a> tool now includes the ability to convert to Helm charts from docker-compose.yml files:</p>
<p><code>kompose convert -c</code></p>
