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.
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.
