Two changes to the reference implementation, both of which every chart copied from it inherits.
Render fix (part of #157): multiplyQuantity turned its input into a string with printf "%v". The null-safe fallback helpers pass values through fromYaml, which parses every number as float64, and Go's "%v" switches float64 to exponential notation from about 1e6 upwards - so a bare byte count like 1048576 arrived as "1.048576e+06" and the suffix check aborted the render. A new xxx.formatNumber helper forces plain decimal notation on both the input and the non-integer product; strings like "512Mi" pass through untouched. This is the canonical fix agreed for the issue, taken over verbatim, because multiplyQuantity is the same copy in every chart and a private variant would create drift instead of a solution. The toYaml/fromYaml round-trip is deliberately not touched: it is not the cause.
NOTES.txt (part of #43): the scaffold now carries the reference NOTES.txt - a placeholder-carrying template, not finished prose. It renders the access URL from ingress.domain (no real domain anywhere), names which fields the 1Password item must carry, and prints the chart's traps: the placeholder image, the fact that both a Deployment and a StatefulSet render, and that no checksum/secret-ref means a secret change restarts nothing here. Output is conditional on the values actually set.
appVersion unchanged; minor bump because both changes are additive.
Five changes to the scaffold every future chart is copied from:
1. seccompProfile.type: RuntimeDefault in the pod security context, in
line with the rest of the seccomp series (#84). Pod context, because
from there it also covers init containers and any container added
later without being repeated.
2. containerPort 80 -> 8080, clearing AVD-KSV-0117. Note that the usual
justification for this does not hold: a non-root container CAN bind
port 80 on current Kubernetes, because the kubelet sets
net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start=0 in the pod network namespace.
Measured, not assumed - see the values.yaml comment. The reason to
stay above 1024 is that this is a runtime default rather than a
guarantee, and that every real chart here already does.
3. The ConfigMap placeholder key is renamed from the literal "key" to
"example-setting", clearing AVD-KSV-01010 (secret-scanner patterns
match any key named "key").
4. The image placeholder is fully qualified as ghcr.io/ORG/IMAGE, so the
template stops teaching the unqualified form that produced the
repo's unqualified Docker Hub images.
5. env values are rendered through "quote". Without it a value like
"8080" renders as a YAML number and the API server rejects the whole
manifest ("cannot unmarshal number into Go struct field
EnvVar.value of type string"). Every real chart in the repo already
quotes here; only the template did not. Found by instantiating the
template and installing it, not by rendering it.
Verified by instantiating the scaffold into a working chart per the
README procedure and installing it in k3d: the workload becomes Ready,
the Service routes to the app on 8080 and an ephemeral container added
to the running pod inherits Seccomp: 2 from the pod context.
Refs #84
Closes out the schema programme (#68) by moving what the 18 charts taught
into the reference implementation and the binding guidelines.
template-chart:
- values.schema.json as the reference schema: additionalProperties false
on every chart-owned level, pod-spec passthrough left open, and the
reasoning inline in the descriptions so a copy carries it along.
- defaultedDict and subBlock plus the per-block fallbacks for both
security contexts, the three probes and resources, wired into both the
Deployment and the StatefulSet.
- the reference itself violated guideline 1: its env block reads
ingress.domain, so with the Ingress gated off it rendered an empty
value. That read is now required(), and the comment says why - the
template is what people copy, so it has to teach the guard, not the
hole.
README, new section "Values that must not lie" with the five rules:
1. a value read outside its obvious template needs its own guard
(matrix-synapse published '{"m.server": ":443"}' to federation without
it, rendering cleanly and reporting healthy)
2. probes, contexts and resources through the null-safe helper, never
behind an "if" - a guard removes the probe instead of showing a null
3. no liveness on an external dependency where a dependency-free path
exists, otherwise document why on the helper
4. a fallback reproduces THIS chart's defaults, not the repo standard -
calibre's readOnlyRootFilesystem: false is what keeps the runtime uid
at 1000 instead of 911 and existing volume data readable
5. a probe default carries its context - port name, Host header, exec
command - or the probe vanishes (teamspeak) or gets 403 (patchmon)
Plus the two mechanics that are easiest to lose: null reaches schema
validation only for keys WITHOUT a chart default (which is why the helper
and the ["object","null"] types each cover a case the other cannot), and
schemas must be validated against real bundle values - that step caught a
draft of mine that would have broken three live paperless releases.
CLAUDE.md: the new-chart checklist now names the schema and the
adaptation step, since the copied file is chart-specific and wrong until
it is adapted.
freesailarr is not covered: it is not on main yet (#59).
A changed ConfigMap did not restart any pod in this repo: no chart carries
a checksum/config annotation, so the pod template stays identical and the
running container keeps its old config. With subPath mounts (the usual form
here) the kubelet never refreshes the file either, so the change is silently
ineffective - see #82, where this caused a real outage while every bundle was
green and the pod Ready.
template-chart is the reference implementation, so it gets the annotation on
both pod templates (Deployment and StatefulSet), and the README style guide
gets a new binding section 9 covering the rule, the reason, and the limit for
1Password-backed Secrets.
Major bump: runtime behavior changes - a config change now costs a restart.
Establish the flexible ingress standard from #32 in template-chart and
document it in README/CLAUDE.md: ingress.domain and ingress.clusterIssuer
stay required, new ingress.className value (default nginx) replaces the
hardcoded ingressClassName, new optional ingress.annotations are merged
with the cert-manager cluster-issuer annotation, TLS secret name
unchanged (tls-<release>-<chart>-ingress).
Apply the standard to cyberchef and patchmon (the two charts without an
own batch-3 major PR) and make the patchmon probes values-configurable
(server + guacd, rendered through tpl so the default Host header keeps
following ingress.domain). Defaults render semantically identical to the
previous hardcoded output.
cyberchef 5.0.1 -> 5.1.0, patchmon 5.0.1 -> 5.1.0 (minor, additive).
- Add icon: to all 17 Chart.yaml (official project icons); removes the
last helm lint --strict INFO finding across the repo
- Rename template files to the <app>.<kind>.yaml scheme (apache-tika,
gotenberg, teamspeak-server PVC, paperless-ngx configmap) - pure
git mv, no content changes
- template-chart: fix missing space in {{ .Chart.Name}} and rename the
ConfigMap resource -config-map -> -configmap (chart is never published)
- rallly: fix typos in required messages (rallySecret -> ralllySecret,
databseSecret -> databaseSecret)
- README: document the deliberate PVC-name exception from the naming
scheme (renames would provision new empty volumes)
- Patch-bump all 16 published charts
Rendered resources are byte-identical for all published charts (only
helm's '# Source:' comments change for the renamed files); the only
render change is the template-chart ConfigMap name.
Part of #32
Every Deployment/StatefulSet now takes its replica count from a replicas
value (default 1, explicit 0 allowed) via a new per-chart <chart>.replicas
helper; the helper uses a kindIs "invalid" nil check so an explicit 0 is
not swallowed by Helm's default function. A chart-global scaleDown flag
(default false) takes precedence: it renders every workload with
replicas: 0 and suspends the paperless-ngx consume CronJob, stopping the
app without uninstalling it (PVCs, Secrets, Services and Ingress remain).
Defaults leave the rendered manifests byte-identical to main, so all
published charts get a minor version bump; the template-chart carries the
reference helper implementation and stays unversioned.
Fixes#25
Every chart now renders its container resources through a duplicated
_helpers.tpl helper (reference implementation in template-chart): requests
ship as chart defaults, missing memory and ephemeral-storage limits are
computed as resources.limitFactor x the request (default 3, satisfactory
keeps 2 to preserve its previously published 8Gi limit), an explicitly set
limit always wins, and a CPU limit is only rendered when set explicitly.
Fixed limit defaults are removed from all values.yaml files; teamspeak-server
gains a values-driven resources block instead of hardcoded template values.
Major version bump for all published charts.
Every container in every Deployment/StatefulSet now defines all three
probes. The paperless-ngx consume CronJob intentionally has none (batch
workload).
- Add probes: apache-tika, calibre-web-automated, cyberchef, gotenberg,
homeassistant, patchmon-backend, samba (tcp/445), teamspeak-server
(tcp/30033), zipline (/api/healthcheck)
- Fix voucher-vault null probe values with real defaults
- Fix startup-probe semantics in template-chart and rallly (no
initialDelaySeconds, generous failureThreshold)
- Switch outline probes to its /_health endpoint
- Add readiness/startup probes to satisfactory
- Add startup probes to matrix-synapse, matrix-delegation-nginx,
paperless-server, patchmon-frontend, urlaubsverwaltung
- Major version bump for all published charts
