* fix: add trackFailOnError option to control kubedog exit code behavior
When kubedog release tracking fails (e.g. pod ImagePullBackOff), helmfile
exits with code 0 instead of a non-zero exit code. Add a trackFailOnError
configuration option (default: false) that when set to true, propagates
kubedog tracking failures to the exit code.
The option is available as:
- Per-release YAML: trackFailOnError: true
- CLI flag: --track-fail-on-error (sync and apply commands)
Extract trackReleaseIfEnabled helper to consolidate kubedog tracking logic
from two duplicated call sites into a single maintainable method.

* fix: add //go:build ignore to server.go to fix go test CI failure
The test/integration/test-cases/issue-2103/input/server.go is a
package main helper binary used by the issue-2103 integration test.
When go test -coverprofile runs on this package, it fails with
"go: no such tool covdata" in the CI environment.
Adding //go:build ignore excludes the file from go list ./... (and
therefore from PKGS in the Makefile), while still allowing the
integration test to build it explicitly via file path:
go build -o server ./path/to/server.go

Adding TrackFailOnError *bool to ReleaseSpec changed the spew

expected hash strings.

* feat: add 'create' subcommand to scaffold helmfile deployment projects
Add 'helmfile create [NAME]' command that generates a best-practice
helmfile project structure with:
- helmfile.yaml with commented examples (helmDefaults, repositories,
environments, releases)
- environments/default.yaml for environment-specific values
- values/.gitkeep placeholder for release values
Supports --output-dir/-o for custom output path and --force to
overwrite existing files. Validates project name to prevent path
traversal.

* fix: add overwrite protection for all scaffold files and unit tests for create command
- pkg/app/create.go: extract writeFileIfNotExists helper that respects the
--force flag; all three scaffold files (helmfile.yaml,
environments/default.yaml, values/.gitkeep) now refuse to overwrite
without --force
- pkg/config/create.go: ValidateConfig now checks all three scaffold paths
and reports every already-existing file in a single error before
proceeding, instead of only checking helmfile.yaml
- pkg/app/create_test.go: add unit tests covering new directory, current
directory, per-file overwrite rejection without --force, and full
overwrite with --force

* fix: atomic preflight check in App.Create before any writes
Refactor Create to collect all conflicting scaffold paths up front
before writing anything. When --force is not set and any scaffold file
already exists, the command returns a single error listing all
conflicts without touching the filesystem.
Also removes the now-unnecessary writeFileIfNotExists helper and adds a
test (TestCreate_PreflightAtomicOnLaterConflict) verifying that a
conflict on a later file (e.g. environments/default.yaml) prevents even
the first file (helmfile.yaml) from being created.

any writes happen; remove trailing blank line that caused gci failure

* refactor: eliminate duplicated scaffold existence check; use O_EXCL for TOCTOU protection
- pkg/config/create.go: remove file-existence check from ValidateConfig
(duplicate of App.Create's preflight); ValidateConfig now only validates
the project name and delegates to GlobalImpl.ValidateConfig. Remove unused
os/path/filepath imports.
- pkg/app/create.go: add writeScaffoldFile helper that uses O_CREATE|O_EXCL
when force=false, so a file appearing between the preflight check and the
actual write is caught rather than silently overwritten (TOCTOU protection).
- pkg/config/create_test.go: remove four file-existence tests that tested the
now-deleted ValidateConfig logic; file-conflict coverage remains in
pkg/app/create_test.go. Simplify ValidName and GlobalColorConflict tests.

* Initial plan
* Fix helmfile.d parallel processing to respect alphabetical order
Changed multiple helmfile.d file processing from parallel to sequential
to match the documented behavior. Files are now processed in alphabetical
order as stated in the documentation, ensuring predictable deployment order.
This fixes issues where deployments would break because parallel processing
did not respect the intended ordering (e.g., databases before applications).
- Modified visitStatesWithContext to process files sequentially
- Removed unused processStateFileParallel function
- Updated test snapshots to reflect deterministic ordering
Co-authored-by: yxxhero <11087727+yxxhero@users.noreply.github.com>
* Add --sequential-helmfiles flag for opt-in sequential processing
Based on feedback, added a flag to control processing mode instead of
forcing sequential behavior. Parallel processing is now the default for
performance, with an opt-in --sequential-helmfiles flag for when order matters.
Changes:
- Added SequentialHelmfiles field to GlobalOptions and App
- Added --sequential-helmfiles CLI flag
- Modified visitStatesWithContext to check flag and choose parallel vs sequential
- Updated documentation to clarify parallel is default, sequential is opt-in
- Restored original parallel processing as default behavior
This gives users control over the behavior based on their needs.

This commit adds comprehensive support for Helm 4 while maintaining
full backward compatibility with Helm 3. The implementation includes:
- Updated helm version detection to support both Helm 3 and Helm 4
- Added HELMFILE_HELM4 environment variable to control Helm version
- Modified helm execution paths to handle version-specific binaries
- Updated helm plugin installation to support split architecture
- Helm 4: Uses split plugin architecture (3 separate .tgz files)
- helm-secrets.tgz
- helm-secrets-getter.tgz
- helm-secrets-post-renderer.tgz
- Helm 3: Continues using single plugin installation
- Updated Dockerfiles, CI workflows, and core installation code
- Helm 4 requires post-renderers to be plugins, not executable scripts
- Created Helm plugin structure for integration tests
- Updated helmfile.yaml templates to dynamically select renderer type
- Added test plugins: add-cm, add-cm1, add-cm2
- Updated integration tests for Helm 3/4 compatibility
- Created Helm 4 variant expected output files
- Fixed test determinism issues (repo cleanup between iterations)
- Added version-specific output filtering for warnings/messages
- Updated workflows to test both Helm 3 and Helm 4
- Matrix testing across Helm versions
- Updated helm-diff to v3.14.0 for compatibility
- Updated README and docs with Helm 4 information
- Added migration guidance
- Updated version requirements
All changes are backward compatible - existing Helm 3 users will
see no behavior changes.
fix: update Helm 4 lint expected output to match filtered output
The grep filter removes the semver warning, so the expected output
should not include it. Updated lint-helm4 files to match the filtered
output (warning removed, no extra blank line).
