This is useful for e.g. removing state file names and their hash values out of output dirs so that it can be used easily in a gitops setup. For example, `--output-dir-template mybasedir/{{.Release.Name}}` produces `mybasedir/RELEASE/CHART/templates/*.yaml` for each release in your helmfile.yaml.
Add a global flag --debug that sets the logging level to debug and passes the global flag --debug to Helm through the implementation of subcommands’ --args.

`--retain-values-files` prevents temporary values files that were passed to Helm commands run by Helmfile for debugging purpose.
With that, you can manually rerun helm commands that were logged when `--log-level=debug` is enabled.

This overrides the default helm command, if provided, as soon as possible.
This way it is already used in `visitStates`.
I ran into an issue using `HELM3` and `--helm-binary` together with helm-secrets.
I previously used tillerless, which i could now remove. This however caused `DecryptSecret` to fail, as it would still use the helm2 binary; because it runs before the first `helm.SetHelmBinary` call.
While helm-secrets is not fully helm3 compatible yet, its uses within helmfile are, and i was able to just install it as a helm3 plugin.
This adds the possibility to use a "=" in the parameters passed to --state-values-set
previous comportment:
`helmfile --state-values-set 'test="abcde==fg",test2="abcde"'` => outputs 'test="abcde",test2="abcde"'
new comportment:
`helmfile --state-values-set 'test="abcde==fg",test2="abcde"'` => outputs 'test="abcde==fg",test2="abcde"'
The addition of `--set k1=v1,k2=v2` and `--values file1 --values file2` was originally planned in #361.
But it turned out we already had `--values` for existing helmfile commands like `sync`. Duplicated flags doesn't work, obviously.
So this actually add `--state-values-set k1=v1,k2=v2` and `--set-values-file file1 --set-values-file file2`.
They are called "state" values according to the discussion we had at #640Resolves#361
* feat: helmfile as a go library
This removes almost all the dependencies from the helmfile core logic to urfave/cli. `main.go` is now a thin wrapper around the core logic implemented in `pkg/app`.
I will start by making as much as possible code in `main.go` independent from urfave/cli, and this illustrates how we can do that by introducing a Config interface that delegates any config value fetch to urfave/cli. We will implement an cobra/pflag impl of the interface when helmfile finally migrates to cobra.
- Change exit code from 2 to 3 when helmfiles have no releases that match a selector
- Introduces new flag `--allow-no-matching-release` to exit 0 when no releases match a selector.
Resolves: #597
In order to maintain predictable deployments, as developer I want to generate and use "lock files" for all chart versions retrieved from a helmfile.
This change solves it by (1)enhancing `helmfile deps` to generate a lock file containing all the direct chart dependencies of each helmfile state file and
(2)making other helmfile sub-commands reads the lock file and merge the locked version numbers to the helmfile state file being processed.
The lock file is named after the helmfile state file being locked, so that you can have multiple set of the helmfile state file and the lock file pairs in a directory.
When `helmfile deps` are not explicitly run before commands like `sync`, all the helmfile behavior should remain as before.
Let's say you have `helmfile.1.yaml`:
```
repositories:
- name: stable
url: https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com
releases:
- name: envoy
chart: stable/envoy
- name: envoy2
chart: stable/envoy
```
`helmfile deps` generates `helmfile.1.lock` that looks like:
```
dependencies:
- name: envoy
repository: https://kubernetes-charts.storage.googleapis.com
version: 1.5.0
digest: sha256:e43b05c8528ea8ef1560f4980a519719ad2a634658abde0a98daefdb83a104e9
generated: 2019-05-14T16:45:37.78205+09:00
```
Under the hood, `helmfile deps` creates a temporary local helm chart with a dummy `Chart.yaml` and `requirements.yaml` deduced from the `helmfile.yaml` content, then runs `helm dependency update` to produce od update the corresponding `requirements.lock` file.
`helmfile` then renames it to match the name of the targeted helmfile state file and moves it, so that it becomes adjacent to each `helmfile.yaml`.
Other `helmfile` commands like `sync`, `diiff`, `apply`, `lint` read chart version numbers from the lock file.
Resolves#483
* Various U/X improvements for `helmfile apply`
This improves the U/X of `helmfile apply`, by allowing you to selectively apply sub-helmfiles.
When you have two or more sub-helmfiles processed, typing `n` to cancel the first doesn't automatically stop the whole helmfile execution.
Instead, it proceeds by diffing the next sub-helmfile, and asks you to apply it, which should be what the user would expect.
To support this workflow, I have suppressed useless exec logs, correct exit status when diff exists in sub-helmfiles but not in the parent helmfile, and made the final error message emitted by helmfile better.
More concretely, this moves more output from `helm` to STDERR and the `debug` log-level.
The overall output from `helmfile` should be a bit more cleaner especially for `apply`, `sync`, `diff` and perhaps other `helmfile` sub-commands, too.
For example, when one of release failed, `helmfile`'s final error message now includes the error message from the failed `helm` execution, like seen in the last line:
```
List of updated releases :
RELEASE CHART VERSION
envoy stable/envoy 1.5.0
List of releases in error :
RELEASE
envoy2
in ./helmfile.yaml: in .helmfiles[0]: in /Users/c-ykuoka/helmfile/helmfile.1.yaml: failed processing release envoy2: helm exited with status 1:
Error: UPGRADE FAILED: "envoy2" has no deployed releases
```
This way you can better understand what caused helmfile to finally fail.
`helmfile` has been streaminig a lot of stdout and stderr contents from the `helm` commands regardless of the helmfile's log-level. It has been suppressed by default and moved to the `debug` log-level.
You will see that it helps you focus on what was the cause of a failure.
While working on the above, I found an another bug that made `--detailed-exitcode` useless in some case.
That is, `helmfile diff --detailed-exitcode`, when any diff existed only in sub-helmfiles, has been returning an exit code of `1`. It should return `2` when any release had diff and no release had an error, regardless of the target is a sub-helmfile or a parent helmfile. Why? Because that's what `--detailed-exitcode` meant for!
After this PR gets merged, `helmfile diff --detailed-exitcode` propery return exit code `2` in such cases.

* feat(report): display summary of upgraded, deleted and error releases
* feat(#502): adds dep target in makefile
* feat(#502): removes vendor and fixes pristine in makefile
* feat: `helmfile destroy` deletes and purges releases
This adds `helmfile destroy` that is basically `helmfile delete --purge`.
I've also tweaked the behavior of `delete` and `destroy` for releases with `installed: false`, so that it becomes consistent with other helmfile commands.
It now delete releases only when `installed: true` AND the release is already installed.
**Why an another command?**
Because it's easy to remember, and it also makes it easier to iterate on your helmfile.
We've been using `helmfile delete` from the beginning of helmfile,
and several months have been passed since we've added `--purge` to it.
We noticed that we always prefer to use `--purge` so that we can quickly iterate on helmfile by
e.g. `helmfile delete --purge && helmfile sync`. But making `--purge` default makes the `delete` command inconsistent with the helm's `delete`.
`destroy`, on the other hand, doesn't have such problem, and is still easy to remember for terraform users.

This feature is supposed to help advanced use-cases like Conventional Directory Structure explained in several issues like #428.
Newly added configuration keys `templates`, `missingFileHandler`, and the ability to defer executing template expressions in `values`, `secrets`, `namespace`, and `chart` of releases allows you to abstract away repetitions into a reusable template:
```yaml
templates:
default: &default
missingFileHandler: Warn
namespace: "{{`{{ .Release.Name }}`}}"
chart: stable/{{`{{ .Release.Name }}`}}
values:
- config/{{`{{ .Release.Name }}`}}/values.yaml
- config/{{`{{ .Release.Name }}`}}/{{`{{ .Environment.Name }}`}}.yaml
secrets:
- config/{{`{{ .Release.Name }}`}}/secrets.yaml
- config/{{`{{ .Release.Name }}`}}/{{`{{ .Environment.Name }}`}}-secrets.yaml

fixes https://github.com/roboll/helmfile/issues/412
the `apply` command first runs the `diff` command, which triggers the execution of the `cleanup` hooks at the end of the `diff`.
Perhaps in latest commits I unexpectedly changed it to require double Ctrl-C to actually interrupt. This fixes it so that one Ctrl-C exists helmfile.
On the way to the fix, I changed the exit-code to 128 + SIGNAL(2 for SIGINT, 15 for SIGTERM) according to common *nix commands.
Prevents helmfile from consuming unnecessarily much time in running `helm repo update` over and over.
helmfile now marks which repository was updated, and skip second and further `helm repo update` when all the `repositories` found in a helmfile.yaml was marked as already updated.
Let's say you had two helmfiles, the first one with repositories `foo` and `bar`, an the second one with only `bar`. `helmfile repos` will run `helm update repo` for the first helmfile, marking `foo` and `bar` as already updated. The second helmfile.yaml contains only `bar`, which is marked as already updated. So helmfile won't run `helm repo update` for the second.
This applies to all the helmfile command that results in `helm repo update`, like `repos`, `sync`, `diff` and so on.
Resolves#335
This allows using the environment values defined in the environments: section of helmfile.yaml to be used from other sections of the file.
This works by having two template renderers, the first-pass and the second-pass renderer.
The first-pass render renders a helmfile.yaml template with replacing template functions has side-effects with noop. So, use only funcs that don't have side-effects to compose your environment values.
Then the second-pass renderer renders the same helmfile.yaml template, but with the environment values loaded by the first-pass renderer.
The implementation uses a buffer instead of re-reading the file twice.
Resolves#297
This enables `helmfile lint` and `helmfile template` commands to fetch and untar all the required charts concurrently. The concurrency is configurable via the `--concurrency` flag, that defaults to `0`.
Ref #292
helmfile as of today ensures that all the targeted helmfile.yaml to have the specified environment defined in it.
That is, `helmfile --environment prod -f helmfile.d/ sync` fails if any helmfile under `helmfile.d/` is missing the `production` environment.
This changes the validation logic, so that helmfile fails only when all the helmfiles miss the environment.
Resolves#279

Adds `--suppress-secrets` to `helmfile apply` and `helmfile diff`, so that the diff command omits the contents of secrets from its output. This is a security feature that should always be turned on for CI/CD use-cases.

```

Output on values render error:
```
err: failed to render [/Users/sstarcher/xxx/xxx/values.yaml], because of template: stringTemplate:10:18: executing "stringTemplate" at <requiredEnv "HELM_AC...>: error calling requiredEnv: required env var `HELM_ACCOUNT` is not set
```
Also removes panic and sets the output as `apps.Run()` can and will return errors. Panic makes no sense.
Changelog:
* improve error handling for value rendering
* only output if error exists
* add exit status
Adds the `--detailed-exitcode` to the `helmfile diff` command to return `1` on failure, and `2` when no error but diff is seen.
This feature requires the latest `helm-diff` containing https://github.com/databus23/helm-diff/pull/78, and `helm` containing https://github.com/helm/helm/pull/4367.
This is verified to work by manually running commands like the followings:
```bash
./helmfile --helm-binary helm211dev -f ./examples/helmfile.d diff --detailed-exitcode; echo $?
./helmfile --helm-binary helm211dev -f ./examples/helmfile.d diff; echo $?
```
Note that, in above example commands, `helm211dev` is a custom `helm` binary that is built from helm's master branch containing [the necessary enhancement to allow propagate non-zero plugin exit code](https://github.com/helm/helm/pull/4367).

Summary of changes:
- Adds the [uber-go-/zap](https://github.com/uber-go/zap) library for leveled logging (69040996e0bcbd2f211d0d8d576147027e928e3b)
- A new CLI arg `--log-level` which can take the values `debug` `info` `warn` `error` `fatal` `panic`. The default is `info`, and the existing `--quiet` flag is treated as `--log-level warn`
- All `helm.exec` calls are preceded by a one-line summary. The current information on the full helm command line arguments `exec: helm exec ... ` is only output at `debug` level. This means sensitive command line arguments which may include passwords and `--set` arguments should be hidden by default.
