Apparently we needed to pass `--validate` on helm-template run by chartify when the targeted chart contains Capabilities.APIVersions in a chart template. Otherwise, you can never make such chart work with chartify, as at apply time helm template expressions that involved Capabilities.APIVersions are already nowhere.
#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

Adds `--chart` flag for overriding the selected release's chart ad-hoc-ly like `helmfile --chart $CHART template`.
This is handy when e.g. you want to have an ArgoCD application per each release in your helmfile.yaml, while also providing the ability to customize the release's chart without touching helmfile.yaml.
See https://github.com/roboll/helmfile/issues/1690#issuecomment-812321354 for more context.
Closes#1690
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.
I had mistakenly inverted the necessary flag to turn off the legacy processing on selectors that should be used only for helmfile commands that does not support DAGs/needs.
Fixes#1552
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
In #1172, we accidentally changed the meaning of prepare hook that is intended to be called BEFORE the pathExists check. It broke the scenario where one used a prepare hook for generating the local chart dynamically. This fixes Helmfile not to fetch local chart generated by prepare hook.
In addition to that, this patch results in the following fixes:
- Fix an issue that `helmfile template` without `--skip-deps` fails while trying to run `helm dep build` on `helm fetch`ed chart, when the remote chart has outdated dependencies in the Chart.lock file. It should be up to the chart maintainer to update Chart.lock and the user should not be blocked due to that. So, after this patch `helm dep build` is run only on the local chart, not on fetched remote chart.
- Skip fetching chart on `helmfile template` when using Helm v3. `helm template` in helm v3 does support rendering remote charts so we do not need to fetch beforehand.
Fixes#1328
May relate to #1341
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 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.
Changes:
* Add global hooks
* Add top level hooks field to yaml spec
* Add functions for global prepare and cleanup events
* Call global prepare and cleanup events in withPreparedCharts function
* Update README
* Add helmfileCommand variable to withPreparedCharts
Pass the information on what helmfileCommand has been run down from the
top level functions through withReposAndPreparedCharts and withPreparedCharts.
