Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. No

Describe all possible solutions, and which you suggest Ideally this project would provide a repo for helm to discover and install the registry-creds related assets. Willing to contribute if you'd like

Describe alternatives and workarounds that you've considered We're currently hosting a local helm chart version of this project but it's downstream and requires manual work to keep in sync. Using the current provided solutions (arkade, kustomize) don't fit our internal tooling and workflows

Additional context None

Hi thanks for using this project. Feel free to support it via GitHub Sponsors if you're a commercial user.

Can you explain why you need helm to install a single YAML manifest without any templating to be done at all?

hagaibarel commented 3 years ago

Hi,

Couple of reasons here -

it's a single yaml but it's actually 7 different resources
In our setup we install all the operators in a dedicated namespace for easier tracking and permissions managment
helm allows us to better understand the application life cycle - whet version is installed, when was it last upgraded etc
helm also allows us to create detailed inventory list of all installed packages and versions
As listed above, our current tool chain is built around helm in terms of storage and automation

Another reason is better understanding and managing the version (and therefor upgrading).

@alexellis any thoughts on this?

alexellis commented 3 years ago

Yes: my thoughts are that I'm on vacation until Jan. I hope you enjoy your time off too :-)

hagaibarel commented 3 years ago

Have fun in your vacation 👍

I made a POC and it could look like this https://github.com/iits-consulting/registry-creds-chart

Maybe it will help

alexellis commented 2 years ago

I use Helm on other projects, I don't see why helm is necessary when there are generated manifest files. Nobody here asking for things is a sponsor, so someone explain to me what's not working?
