#1772 broke `--selector` with `needs` in many ways.
The two biggest problems I've encountered were:
- duplicate releases even if you've provided a proper `selector` to deduplicate
- sync/deletion ordering broken when you have `needs`
For the first issue, we had to update `getSelectedReleases` function to also calculate the "selected releases and releases needed by the selected releases", and use that to calculate the DAG. That should have been done in #1772.
The latter started happening after I've fixed the first issue. The source of the issue was that `needs` turned out to be ambiguous in a few cases.
Previously, `needs: ["foo/bar"]` had two meanings. One for "needs release bar in kubecontext foo", another for "needs release bar in namespace foo".
Moreover, `needs: ["foo/bar/baz"]` had three meanings.
- `needs release baz in tiller namespace foo and namespace baz`
- `needs release baz in namespace bar in kubecontext foo`
- `needs release baz in tiller namespace bar in kubecontext foo`.
Especially, the first meaning doesn't make sense at all. Helm 2 solely use tillerNamespace for namespacing the release and Helm 3 uses namespace for that.
This fix sorts all the bugs and issues I've found so far around that, by changing the meanings of the above two examples as follows:
- `foo/bar` means `namespace=foo,name=bar` for Helm 3 and `tillerNamespace=foo,name=bar` for Helm 2
- `needs release bar in kubecontext foo` is now `foo//bar`. Notice the extra `/` between `foo` and `bar`.
- `foo/bar/baz` means `kubecontext=foo,namespace=bar,name=baz` for Helm 3 and `kubecontext=foo,tillerNamespace=bar,name=baz` in Helm 2
Fixes#1818
* tests: fix vagrant test run
* feat: added an option to specify the different diff output format
* renamed diff-output to output
* renamed diff-output to output
Co-authored-by: Andrey Tuzhilin <andrey@zelf.co>
* Add --{include,skip}-needs to helmfile-sync and helmfile-apply
* Add --include-needs to helmfile-template
* Add TODO related to #1018
* Add a few new test files to cover new functionalities
* Update apply test to incorporate the change that the destroy and sync steps target affected releases only
This improves helmfile-apply with two things:
- Some users had timing-out issues or annoyed by huge output from helm-diff run as part of helmfile-apply on first install. `--skip-diff-on-install` skips running helm-diff for releases being newly installed, so that you can avoid those issues.
- Some users had difficultly or found it not straight-forward to install CRDs and custom resources from separate charts in one helmfile-apply (#1353). The new helmfile.yaml release field `disableValidationOnInstall: true` adds `--disable-validation` to helm-diff only for releases being newly released, which should mostly resolve the issue.
Resolves#1353
This deprecates the old `--retain-values` which was not working as intended.
Also see #1570 - there's now `--skip-cleanup` for `helmfile-template`, too.
This allows you to use helmfile-template output as a GitOps source, when the template output contains CRDs and you use Helm 3.
Helm 3 by default removes CRDs from the template output. If you want to git-commit helmfile-template containing CRDs for GitOps and you use Helm 3 for templating, the only way is provide this newly added `--include-crds` flag.
Adds a basic support for Helm repositories hosted on Azure Container Registry (not OCI but classic ones). Add a new field to RepositorySpec to state that is externally managed and runs the `az-cli` command instead of the helm one to manage the repository.
* Parse and process helm version using github.com/Masterminds/semver/v3.
* Add --force-update only when Helm version >= 3.3.2, < 3.3.4.
See: https://github.com/helm/helm/pull/8777.
* Add test cases.
This adds `comonLabels` option to helmfile by:
- Adding `CommonLabels` to HelmState
- Changing `markExcludedReleases` and `ListReleases` functions to merge common labels into release labels
Resolves#1266
This reverts a part of #1383 so that repository updates are done in the pre-0.125.0 way, which tries to update any repositories only once regardless of they are referenced by selected releases or not.
Ref #1404
Changes:
- Prevent Helmfile from unnecessarily running `helm repo add` and `helm repo up` against repositories for unused repositories(repositories of releases filtered out by selector)
- Fixes#1330
This, in combination with #1172, allows you to use `go-getter`-supported URL for K8s manifests on `chart`, so that Helmfile automatically fetches it and then turning it into a temporary local chart, which is then installed by Helmfile as similar as standard Helm charts.
An example usecase of this is to install cert-manager CRDs which is distributed separately from the chart:
```
releases:
- name: cert-manager-crds
chart: git::http://github.com/jetstack/cert-manager.git@deploy/crds?ref=v0.15.2
```
I'm adding this based on discussion with @lukasmrtvy. He was trying to install cert-manager and prometheus-opreator with Helmfile, and this combined with #1373 should do the job. Thanks for the input!
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.
This is the GA version of the helm-x integration #673 developed last year.
You get all the following benefits without an extra helm plugin:
- Ability to add ad-hoc chart dependencies/aliases, without forking the chart (Fixes#876 )
- Ability to patch resulting K8s resources before installing the helm chart
- Ability to install a kustomization as a chart (Requires `kustomize` binary to be available in `$PATH`
- Ability to install a directory of K8s manifests as a chart
- etc.
- createNamespace is a new attribute that can be added to helmDefaults
or an individual release to enforce the creation of a release namespace
during sync if the namespace does not exist. This leverages helm's
(3.2+) --create-namespace flag for the install/upgrade command. If
running helm < 3.2, the createNamespace attribute has no effect.

* New output flag for list command
Support output as json
Add new formatters file to handle extrac formatting to its own concern
New config interface to support list command specification
* Fix usage message
* Add error handling for formatters
`--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.
Resolves ##1117
* Add option to suppress diff on apply
Add --supress-diff option on apply. Usable for fresh installs when a
lot of output is produces by diff.
Resolves#458
* fix tests for suppress-diff
This makes it possible to pass the API Capabilities to helmfile when executing a task that does not render against an actual cluster (diff, template, apply).
Resolves#1014
When helmfile is run with `--environment NAME` and there was a base hemlfile that misses `environments`, helmfile had been trying to load env values for NAME and failing.
A base helmfile is allowed to reference values from within itself, but that's optional. In other words, a base helmfile that misses the env is okay as long as it doesn't self-reference env values.
So, this change allows missing env and env values while loading base helmfile. After loading, a base helmfile can fail due to referencing missing env values, but that's okay.
