The markdown generation is entirely go template driven. The tool parses metadata from charts and generates a number of sub-templates that can be referenced in a template file (by default ``README.md.gotmpl``). If no template file is provided, the tool has a default internal template that will generate a reasonably formatted README.
# Parameters
The following tables lists the configurable parameters of the chart and their default values.
Change the values according to the need of the environment in ``victoria-metrics-cluster/values.yaml`` file.
