Establish Ownership and Visibility of Helm Resources in ArgoCD via OwnerReferences #188

Open perlinger opened 1 year ago

perlinger commented 1 year ago

What problem are you facing?

ArgoCD does not display Helm resources installed through Kind: Release.

How could Crossplane help solve your problem?

Add OwnerReferences. Adding OwnerReferences is necessary to link resources installed via Kind: Release to their respective owning resources. By doing so, the ownership relationship can be established, and the Helm resources should become visible in ArgoCD.

This is possible for Release objects that deploy within the same cluster that Crossplane/provider-helm are running in, but cross-cluster ownerReferences are not supported by Kubernetes, so it wouldn't work for any Release object that is deploying into a remote cluster. I suspect that the majority of use cases for provider-helm deploy into a remote cluster (I know they are in our deployments). provider-kubernetes has similar use cases and limitations on ownerReferences.

+1 This would be a nice feature to have, despite the cross-cluster limitations
