Purge all helm release without knowing releaseName

[afreyermuth98]

What happened?

I'm releasing some stuff using the helm releaseName like this

deployments:
  app:
    helm:
      chart:
        name: my-chart-name-${SOME_RELEASE_NAME}
      releaseName: ${SOME_RELEASE_NAME}

Then I want to purge this release but I cannot access the previous SOME_RELEASE_NAME value.

What did you expect to happen instead?

Have something to be able to purge the release even without knowing its name.

How can we reproduce the bug? (as minimally and precisely as possible)

Release an helm chart with a releaseName depending on a variable and then try to purge this release without this variable.

Local Environment:

• DevSpace Version: 6.3.2
• Operating System: linux
• ARCH of the OS: AMD64 Kubernetes Cluster:
• Cloud Provider: aws
• Kubernetes Version: 1.26.7

Anything else we need to know?

@afreyermuth98 Could you share your devspace.yaml? Here's a very simple example that works with devspace deploy & devspace purge. You might also check to see whether the namespace being used by DevSpace is the same that was used for the original deployment, since DevSpace uses a secret to cache the deployment information.

version: v2beta1

deployments:
  app:
    helm:
      releaseName: release-${DEVSPACE_TIMESTAMP}
      values:
        containers:
          - image: alpine
            command:
              - sh
              - -c
              - sleep infinity
