  # - external auth in front of an app that has no login of its own, for
  # instance - is simply gone when httpRoute.enabled is used instead. It is
  # then the Gateway's business, or that of an implementation-specific policy
  # object this chart deliberately does not render.

# Gateway-API alternative to the Ingress above (Gitea #114). Off by default, so
# an existing release is unaffected; exactly one of ingress.enabled and
# httpRoute.enabled may be true.
#
# The chart renders ONLY an HTTPRoute with parentRefs - no Gateway, no
# gatewayClassName, no Certificate and no implementation-specific policy
# object. Class and certificate belong to the Gateway and therefore to the
# platform, which is what keeps this chart independent of whether the cluster
# runs nginx-gateway-fabric, Cilium, Envoy Gateway or Istio.
#
# The Gateway-API CRDs must be installed in the cluster: the chart does not and
# cannot detect them (.Capabilities.APIVersions is unreliable at template
# time), so with httpRoute.enabled: true and no CRDs the INSTALL fails.

  enabled: false

  # ParentReference (name, and optionally namespace, sectionName, port, group,
  # kind), passed through unchanged:
  #
  #   parentRefs:
  #     - name: public
  #       namespace: gateway
  #       sectionName: https
  #
  # REQUIRED while httpRoute.enabled is true - the render aborts on an empty
  # list, because a route without a parent is created, is valid and routes
  # nothing, with no event to say so.
  parentRefs: []
  # Empty means [ingress.domain], so the hostname has one source of truth. Set

  # hostname while the Ingress keeps ingress.domain.

# NetworkPolicy (Gitea #5). On by default. The reference implementation with

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
networkPolicy:
  # WHAT THIS POLICY ALLOWS: inbound 8080 only - the single port this pod
  # declares - and outbound nothing but DNS. CyberChef is a static web app
  # whose recipes run in the browser, so the pod has no reason to open an
  # outbound connection at all, which makes the egress cap unusually tight.
  #
  # WHAT IT DOES NOT DO: the 8080 rule is NOT restricted by source in the
  # default, because 8080 is the port all three probes address - see
  # probeSources below. So this policy is a port and egress ceiling, not
  # pod-level isolation. And it is only a boundary where the CNI enforces
  # policies; unenforced, it is accepted and filters nothing.
  enabled: true
  # Namespaces whose pods may reach this workload, in addition to the release's
  # own namespace, which is always allowed. Empty means: own namespace only.
  #
  # Matched on the "kubernetes.io/metadata.name" label Kubernetes sets on every
  # namespace itself, so no labelling work is needed on a namespace this chart
  # does not own - and no typo protection either: a name that does not exist
  # matches nothing and is silently ineffective. Note the granularity: an entry
  # opens the port to EVERY pod in that namespace.
  allowedNamespaces: []
  # Source CIDRs allowed to reach port 8080, which is the port all three probes address.
  #
  # EMPTY MEANS OPEN, NOT BLOCKED. With no entry that rule is rendered WITHOUT a
  # "from" selector, so the port is reachable from anywhere the CNI routes to -
  # inside the cluster, since it carries no NodePort.
  #
  # That is the deliberate choice between two bad defaults. The kubelet's probes
  # originate from the IP of the WORKER NODE running the pod, an address this
  # chart cannot know and must not guess: a CIDR that excludes the real node
  # blocks every probe, the pod never becomes Ready, the rollout times out, and
  # the symptom reads as a broken application rather than as a policy.
  #
  # Narrow it by listing the worker node IPs (e.g. ["10.0.1.11/32"]) - and mind
  # the companion trap: once this list is non-empty the rule IS restricted, so
  # everything else that needs the port has to be in it. The chart adds the own
  # namespace, the ingressController below and allowedNamespaces to the same rule for exactly that reason.
  probeSources: []
  # The ingress controller allowed to reach the routed port once probeSources
  # restricts it. Rendered only while ingress.enabled or httpRoute.enabled is true, and only in
  # the restricted branch - with the default (open) rule the controller reaches
  # the port anyway. The two keys become ONE "from" entry and are therefore an
  # AND: pods carrying podLabels IN namespace. That is the point of having them
  # at all - the controller's namespace in allowedNamespaces would open the port
  # to every pod in kube-system.
  #
  # MEASURED ON THIS CLUSTER, NOT ASSUMED (2026-10-14): ingress-nginx is gone,
  # the only IngressClass is "traefik" and it is the default, and the controller
  # is the DaemonSet rke2-traefik in kube-system. The same Traefik serves the
  # Gateway API here, so this one source covers the Ingress and the HTTPRoute
  # path alike. A policy written against the wrong controller is accepted, looks
  # strict, and silently blocks all web traffic - and ingress.className says
  # nothing about it, because a class names an implementation, not the pods the
  # traffic comes from.
  ingressController:
    namespace: kube-system
    podLabels:
      app.kubernetes.io/name: rke2-traefik

  # The policy's INBOUND side. Mind the three names that overlap as substrings,
  # because a search for "ingress" matches all of them and they are different
  # things:
  #
  #   ingress                          (top level) the Ingress OBJECT this chart
  #                                    renders - host, TLS, className
  #   networkPolicy.ingress            this block: what the policy lets IN
  #   networkPolicy.ingressController  the SOURCE SELECTOR for the ingress
  #                                    controller's pods. A SIBLING of this block
  #                                    and NO PART OF IT, despite the name.
  ingress:
    # Opens the pod for Istio's ambient mesh (Gitea #143). OFF by default and
    # additive: while it is false this chart renders byte for byte as it did
    # before the value existed.
    #
    # IT RENDERS TWO THINGS, and that they come together is the point:
    #
    #   1. 15008/TCP inbound - ztunnel's HBONE tunnel. Every inbound mesh
    #      connection arrives on it, and ambient "does not and will never bypass
    #      Kubernetes NetworkPolicy enforcement", so without this port a pod
    #      whose namespace has joined the mesh is unreachable.
    #   2. 169.254.7.127/32 as an additional peer - but ONLY where the rule
    #      restricts sources at all, which here means probeSources is non-empty.
    #      Inside the mesh the kubelet's probes are redirected and no longer come
    #      from the worker node's address.
    #
    # WHY ONE SWITCH AND NOT TWO: point 2 is the one nobody thinks of. Whoever
    # adds "15008" to a port list by hand writes a policy that passes review, and
    # the first time probeSources is narrowed every probe is dropped - the pod
    # never becomes Ready and the symptom reads as a broken application rather
    # than as a policy. A switch whose halves can only be had together cannot be
    # set halfway, which is why this is a named intention and not a port list.
    #
    # TWO THINGS IT DOES NOT PROVE:
    #   - That 15008 alone is enough. That comes from Istio's documentation;
    #     measured on this cluster is only which listeners ztunnel opens.
    #     Provable at the first namespace to join the mesh - none carries
    #     istio.io/dataplane-mode yet.
    #   - That the probe-source half works. probeSources is empty in every chart
    #     here, so no release reaches that branch. CI proves its render, not its
    #     effect.
    #
    # Note where the port lands: it joins the rule that carries the probe port,
    # so once probeSources restricts that rule, 15008 is restricted with it.
    # Whether ztunnel needs a peer of its own is open - it runs with its own pod
    # IPs in istio-system (measured: no hostNetwork on the DaemonSet, Istio
    # 1.30.6), so if one proves necessary it is expressible as a
    # namespaceSelector plus podSelector and needs no unknowable node CIDR.
    ambientMesh: false

  egress:
    # Additional outbound TCP ports. DNS (UDP and TCP 53) is always allowed and
    # has no switch - a knob whose only other setting breaks every name lookup
    # in the pod is a trap, not a feature.
    #
    # PORTS, NOT DESTINATIONS, and that is a limit of the object rather than
    # laziness: a NetworkPolicy matches CIDRs and selectors and never hostnames,
    # so "only to the database host" cannot be written at all. Each entry
    # permits its port to ANY destination. What the cap still buys is real: a
    # compromised pod cannot open arbitrary outbound connections.
    #
    # Nothing is needed here for CyberChef itself. Add 443 only if something
    # is put in front of the pod that has to call out.
