Example of use

When we store sensitive data for a deployment in a secret, some times we want to give to users the possibility of using theirs existing secrets.

# templates/secret.yaml
---
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: {{ include "common.names.fullname" . }}
  labels:
    app: {{ include "common.names.fullname" . }}
type: Opaque
data:
  password: {{ .Values.password | b64enc | quote }}

# templates/dpl.yaml
---
...
      env:
        - name: PASSWORD
          valueFrom:
            secretKeyRef:
              name: {{ include "common.secrets.name" (dict "existingSecret" .Values.existingSecret "context" $) }}
              key: {{ include "common.secrets.key" (dict "existingSecret" .Values.existingSecret "key" "password") }}
...

# values.yaml
---
name: mySecret
keyMapping:
  password: myPasswordKey

ValidateValue

NOTES.txt

{{- $validateValueConf00 := (dict "valueKey" "path.to.value00" "secret" "secretName" "field" "password-00") -}}
{{- $validateValueConf01 := (dict "valueKey" "path.to.value01" "secret" "secretName" "field" "password-01") -}}

{{ include "common.validations.values.multiple.empty" (dict "required" (list $validateValueConf00 $validateValueConf01) "context" $) }}

If we force those values to be empty we will see some alerts

$ helm install test mychart --set path.to.value00="",path.to.value01=""
    'path.to.value00' must not be empty, please add '--set path.to.value00=$PASSWORD_00' to the command. To get the current value:

        export PASSWORD_00=$(kubectl get secret --namespace default secretName -o jsonpath="{.data.password-00}" | base64 -d)

    'path.to.value01' must not be empty, please add '--set path.to.value01=$PASSWORD_01' to the command. To get the current value:

        export PASSWORD_01=$(kubectl get secret --namespace default secretName -o jsonpath="{.data.password-01}" | base64 -d)

Upgrading

To 1.0.0

On November 13, 2020, Helm v2 support was formally finished, this major version is the result of the required changes applied to the Helm Chart to be able to incorporate the different features added in Helm v3 and to be consistent with the Helm project itself regarding the Helm v2 EOL.

What changes were introduced in this major version?

  • Previous versions of this Helm Chart use apiVersion: v1 (installable by both Helm 2 and 3), this Helm Chart was updated to apiVersion: v2 (installable by Helm 3 only). Here you can find more information about the apiVersion field.
  • Use type: library. Here you can find more information.
  • The different fields present in the Chart.yaml file has been ordered alphabetically in a homogeneous way for all the Bitnami Helm Charts

Considerations when upgrading to this version

  • If you want to upgrade to this version from a previous one installed with Helm v3, you shouldn't face any issues
  • If you want to upgrade to this version using Helm v2, this scenario is not supported as this version doesn't support Helm v2 anymore
  • If you installed the previous version with Helm v2 and wants to upgrade to this version with Helm v3, please refer to the official Helm documentation about migrating from Helm v2 to v3
