Helm chart failing with error validating "": error validating data: [unknown object type "nil" in Secret.data.gitPassword, unknown object type "nil" in Secret.data.gitUsername]

[Anurag-30]

BUG REPORT:

Version of Helm and Kubernetes:

Helm-Version: "v3.2.4" Kubernetes: "v1.17.0"

Which chart in which version:

spring-cloud-config-server helm chart is failing when tried to install it using helm3

What happened: When I try to install the helm chart with the following command helm install spring-cloud-config-server kiwigrid/spring-cloud-config-server it throws the error.

Error: unable to build kubernetes objects from release manifest: error validating "": error validating data: [unknown object type "nil" in Secret.data.gitPassword, unknown object type "nil" in Secret.data.gitUsername]

What you expected to happen: If git username and password are mandatory please do update the readme accordingly. I see the default values for them are null, either this should be handled or should be made mandatory fields

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible): I just followed the instructions mentioned in hub.helm --> https://hub.helm.sh/charts/kiwigrid/spring-cloud-config-server

helm repo add kiwigrid https://kiwigrid.github.io

helm install kiwigrid/spring-cloud-config-server --version 0.1.0

we can use b64enc function to encrypt the plain text to base64. update the lines in secret.yaml to this:

data: gitUsername: {{ .Values.secrets.gitUsername | b64enc }} gitPassword: {{ .Values.secrets.gitPassword | b64enc }}

Update the readme with the same information.
