Cloudnative-PG DB Secret Integration

[tctlrd]

Name and Version

vaultwarden, linkwarden, cachet, activepieces, paperless-ngx

What is the problem this feature will solve?

Folks using the CNPG operator already have a secret with the database credentials. This feature will allow the chart to use that secret to connect the app to the database. Charts in the fmjstudios repo using PostgreSQL: vaultwarden, linkwarden, cachet, activepieces, paperless-ngx

What is the feature you are proposing to solve the problem?

Include an optional value for charts using PostgreSQL that applies the database secret created by the official CNPG (Cloudnative-PG) operator, in order to connect the app to the database.

What alternatives have you considered?

Manually entering credentials for databases...

Hey @tctlrd, very valid point! I use the Operator myself but haven't actually gotten to properly deploy my charts since I'm reworking the cluster at the moment. I will take a look at this and the required changes over the next few days and report back! 👍🏼

paperless-ngx also supports mariadb and I already use that operator with backups, would be nice to be able to simply use that. Currently it appears the db vendor is hard coded in the configmap in the chart.

@cfarence Integrating with both the mariadb & postgresql operator secrets in the same PR would make sense. To avoid complexity I am trying run as much as possible on postgresql: https://www.amazingcto.com/postgres-for-everything/
