This would allow cli flag `--kube-context` to override value in helmDefaults allowing to use different values in local development and CI context.

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
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.
* Bump sprig to v3.1.0
test for mergeOverwrite
* Let mergo not (accidentally) try to merge unexported fields
This is also a good chance separate `HelmState` with the config loaded from YAML, which I had been wanting to do for a long time.

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
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, 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.
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.
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.

- Will now normalize the content before splitting it to parts
context:
Me & and a fellow dev have tried to figure out why helmfile didn't fill in certain values on his machine;
turns out, he'd mistakenly checked out our project w/ CRLF line endings, which had caused part splitting to not work (as it's hard coded to look for '\n').
The following was acted on as a single part, causing values from the bases not to be available in the next yaml part:
```
bases:\r\n
- base.yaml\r\n
---\r\n
releases:
- name: external-secrets-crd
... some templated yaml ...
```
I've thought about regex-ing it out instead of replace-all, but benchmarks had shown that a plain replace is faster.
I've also considered splitting by "\n---" instead of "\n---", but that would break if the dashes were to continue with some other text.

CHANGES:
* Disable repo update when installed is false
When install is false, we do not need to update the repositories and get
the chart.

- 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.
Resolves#891Resolves#1140
* feat(tmpl): added fetchSecretValue template function
This adds a tmpl `fetchSecretValue` and `expandSecretRefs` function by:
- Adding:
- `expandSecretRefs` function in tmpl package that uses vals
package to fetch secrets
- `fetchSecretValue` function in tmpl package like below but for
single string value
- gomock for tests purpose
- Changing:
- move init of vals package to function (so the same instance can be used for template values and rendering the whole template)
* doc(secret): added doc how to use new tmpl methods
Added example usage of `fetchSecretValue` and `expandSecretRefs`
* 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
This commit proposes a potential solution for
https://github.com/roboll/helmfile/issues/1201
The gist is that, if prestate rendering fails, for any reason,
we do not populate the .Values in the second pass renderer.
I think that what have been expected in this case is to populate the
.Values irregardless.
pkg/app/two_pass_renderer.go
- Migrated to use finalEnv.GetMergedValues()
pkg/environment/environment.go
- Introduced GetMergedValues, which merges the environment's defaults
and current values, and then casts the keys to string;
This was previously defined in HelmState.Values() - however, as this
method is only concerned with the environment, I think it's more
appropriate for it to sit here.
pkg/state/state_exec_tmpl.go
- Extracted out HelmState.Values() to environment.go, see above
`--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.
Fixes#1008
Those are not actually random but would have looked like so. We use an external go pkg `variantdev/vals` to expand urls like `ref+vault://foo/bar` contained in release values into their respective secret values.
There was a bug in `vals` that it tries to expand unintended types of strings which resulted in confusing errors like reported in #973.
`vals` fixed the issue in ba4c7a2987. This commit upgrades `vals` to accomodate that.
Fixes#973
Runs `helm version` in helmexec.New, and exposes a method on Interface to allow other packages to use the detected version. Preserves compatibility with previous HELMFILE_HELM3 mechanism.
Resolves#923
* Fix regression since 0.90.0 that Helmfile becomes too slow when there are many releases
Fixes#959
* Ensure that the up-to-date helm-diff is installed and used in integration tests
The problem was that `--namespace NS` had been not taken into account while deleting releases, that resulted in releases that should be deleted are not deleted.
The recent addition of the DAG support(`needs`) and the fixes on it broke the delete-on-sync functionality. And there were two more bugs. One is that it was not correctly running `helm delete` when needed and the another is that it was failing when `--selector` is specified and the releases to delete by sync found, but nothing actually got deleted. This fixes all of them.
Fixes#941
This ports the fix for `helfmile apply` to `sync`, so that specifying `--selector` doesn't break `helmfile sync`.
Also make `helmfile template` DAG-aware, so that the manifests are rendered in the order of dependency.
Ref #919
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.
* fix: Fix `needs` to work for upgrades and when selectors are provided
Fixes#919
* Add test framework for `helmfile apply`
* Various enhancements and fixes to the DAG support
- Make the order of upgrades/deletes more deterministic for testability
- Fix the test framework so that we can validate log outputs and errors
- Add more test cases for `helmfile apply`, along with bug fixes.
- Make sure it fails with an intuitive error when you have non-existent releases referenced from witin "needs"
