# Scale the whole chart down without uninstalling it: scaleDown: true renders
# every Deployment/StatefulSet with replicas: 0 (and suspends CronJobs) and
# takes precedence over any per-workload replicas value. PVCs, Secrets and
# Services stay in place; scaleDown: false brings the workloads back up.
scaleDown: false

# The bridges RSS-Bridge offers, rendered into the ConfigMap as whitelist.txt
# and mounted at /app/whitelist.txt.
#
# A list rather than a blob of file content: the file format is one bridge name
# per line, and the application trims and filters every line before use
# (lib/Configuration.php), so nothing is lost by modelling it as YAML - while a
# hardcoded file body in the template could not be changed without editing the
# chart.
#
# The single entry "*" is RSS-Bridge's own wildcard and enables every bridge.
# It is the default here because it is exactly what the image does when no
# whitelist.txt exists at all, so a default install behaves like stock
# RSS-Bridge instead of silently serving nothing. Installations that want a
# narrower set list the bridge names explicitly:
#
#   whitelist:
#     - Youtube
#     - Heise
#
# Changing this value rolls the pod - the deployment carries a checksum over
# the rendered ConfigMap (see rss-bridge.deployment.yaml). Without that the
# change would not reach the running container at all: the whitelist is a
# subPath mount, which the kubelet never refreshes.

  - "*"

  # The image ships no USER and runs everything as root by default. It does,
  # however, run fully hardened once its writable paths are provided: nginx and
  # php-fpm both start, the front page renders and real bridges fetch feeds.
  #
  # uid/gid 33 is www-data, and it is not interchangeable: /app and every file
  # in it is owned by www-data in the image, nginx.conf declares "user
  # www-data" and the php-fpm pool declares "user = www-data". Both emit a
  # harmless notice that those directives are ignored when the master process
  # is not root, and then serve normally as uid 33.

    requests:
      cpu: 0.1
      # Measured with the shipped image: about 59 MiB resident while idle and
      # roughly 89 MiB after serving feeds, so the previous 20Mi request was
      # a third of what the workload actually occupies around the clock.
      memory: 128Mi
      # The previous manifest requested 2Gi of ephemeral storage - identical to
      # its limit - and thereby reserved two gigabytes of node scheduling
      # capacity for a workload that does not come close to using it.
      #
      # Everything RSS-Bridge writes was enumerated by running the image with a
      # writable root filesystem, exercising every whitelisted bridge and then
      # reading the container's diff layer. The only path that grows is the
      # feed cache under /app/cache: 17 entries and 2.2 MB after fetching all
      # five bridges, largest single entry 196 KB, and the application purges
      # it on its own (FileCache enable_purge). /run and /var/lib/nginx add
      # under 100 KB together.
      #
      # 64Mi is therefore roughly thirty times the measured footprint while
      # freeing 97% of the old reservation. The limit below stays large, so
      # the decoupling costs no safety margin (same shape as gotenberg, #106).
      ephemeralStorage: 64Mi
    limits:
      # Set explicitly rather than left to limitFactor x request.
      #
      # memory: the manifest this chart replaces capped the container at
      # 100Mi, but five concurrent feed fetches were measured peaking at
      # 119 MiB - the old limit was already below the real peak, and php-fpm
      # is configured for up to five workers with a 128M PHP memory_limit
      # each. 512Mi covers the measured peak with room to spare and still
      # bounds a runaway bridge.
      memory: 512Mi
      # Unchanged from the previous manifest on purpose: a large cap costs
      # nothing (it reserves no capacity) and guarantees this change cannot
      # make eviction more likely than it is today.

    # No CPU limit by default (repo standard): CPU is compressible, so a limit

ingress:
  # Gates the whole Ingress template. Checked in both directions per guideline
  # 1: nothing outside this template reads an ingress value - the container
  # takes no domain in its environment and nginx serves as default_server
  # without a server_name - so switching the Ingress off frees every value
  # below, and none of them needs a separate required().

  annotations: {}
  # The hosts this Ingress serves. Required - the chart ships no default,
  # because hostnames are installation data and have no business in a chart.
  #
  # Each entry is a host plus an OPTIONAL tlsSecretName:
  #
  #   hosts:
  #     - host: rss-bridge.example.com
  #     - host: feeds.example.com
  #       tlsSecretName: tls-legacy-feeds-ingress
  #
  # Entries sharing a tlsSecretName are grouped into one tls entry, so they
  # share a single certificate with several SANs. Entries with distinct names
  # get one certificate each. Omitting tlsSecretName falls back to the repo
  # convention, tls-<release>-<chart>-ingress.
  #
  # DOCUMENTED DEVIATION - why the secret name is configurable at all:
  #
  # The repo convention (guideline 4) is exactly one TLS secret per Ingress,
  # named tls-<release>-<chart>-ingress. The installation this chart takes over
  # has grown three separate secrets, one per host, from three years of
  # kubectl apply. Renaming them would not be a cosmetic cleanup: cert-manager
  # keys certificates by secret name, so three new names mean three fresh
  # issuances, and the service is unreachable on each host until its
  # certificate is issued. That is a self-inflicted outage plus three
  # avoidable Let's Encrypt issuances, for a deployment that has been running
  # untouched for over a year.
  #
  # Making host and secret name per-entry values keeps the existing names in
  # place today and turns the eventual consolidation onto one certificate - or
  # the retirement of the legacy hostnames - into a values change instead of a
  # template change (the explicit ask from cluster-config#33).
