Emmanuel Leroy created FLINK-31493:
--------------------------------------
Summary: helm upgrade does not work, because repo path does not
follow helm standards
Key: FLINK-31493
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-31493
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Kubernetes Operator
Reporter: Emmanuel Leroy
the helm repo for flink-operator is a folder that includes the version, which
is not following the helm chart repo standards.
In a standard helm repo, the repo URL is the name of the product (without
version) and then the folder includes the different versions of the chart.
This is an issue because the repo itself needs to be installed every time the
version is upgraded, as opposed to adding the repo once and then upgrading the
version.
When attempting to add the latest repo, helm will complain that the repo
already exists. It is necessary to first remove the repo, and then add the
updated one.
When trying to upgrade the chart, it doesn't work, because helm expects the
chart of the previous version to be in the same repo, but it cannot be found in
the newly added repo.
So the chart needs to be uninstalled, then the new one installed.
The solution is to use a common path for all versions of the chart, and
maintain a manifest with the various versions (instead of different folders
with different manifests)
