[Starlingx-discuss] ACTION REQUIRED >> RE: The impact of helm chart repo deprecation

[Peters, Matt]

Hi Folks,
The deprecation notice states that the repo will be put into archive mode, which is a standard practice for public GitHub repos to maintain the repo as read-only.
Therefore, the builds will be able to pull the referenced sha download even after the repo is archived.  We definitely need to plan out a move to the new maintained chart repos, but it shouldn’t have an immediate impact.

“At 1 year, support for this project will formally end, at which point the stable and incubator chart repos will be marked obsolete. At that time these chart repos will likely be garbage collected and no longer available. This git repository will remain as an archive.”

Hi Mingyuan,
Thank you for raising this important concern.

Don had a quick look and it appears that there are two armada applications in StarlingX that get their charts from the location below:
monitor-armada-app/centos_tarball-dl.lst:helm-charts-92b6289ae93816717a8453cfe62bad51cbdb8ad0.tar.gz#helm-charts#https://github.com/helm/charts/archive/92b6289ae93816717a8453cfe62bad51cbdb8ad0.tar.gz#http##
nginx-ingress-controller-armada-app/centos_tarball-dl.lst:helm-charts-92b6289ae93816717a8453cfe62bad51cbdb8ad0.tar.gz#helm-charts#https://github.com/helm/charts/archive/92b6289ae93816717a8453cfe62bad51cbdb8ad0.tar.gz#http##

I expect these charts will need to be copied to the corresponding StarlingX armada-app repo and the build changed to point to the new location.

@Ansari, Sabeel<mailto:Sabeel.Ansari at windriver.com> please handle the required changes for nginx-ingress-controller-armada-app
@Smith, Kevin<mailto:Kevin.Smith at windriver.com> please handle the required changes for monitoring-armada-app. (is this app getting built still?)
Please open LPs as needed.

Regards,
Ghada

Hi Scott & Armada application owners,

This is a reminder that the helm chart repo on github[1] will be deprecated in Nov 13th 2020.
According to the announcement, the helm charts in this repo will be no longer available.

Please check the build system and helm charts of the armada applications to make sure the helm charts are not downloaded from this repo.
Otherwise the build may fail due to the download issue. Thanks!

Mingyuan
