# helm-charts repo

This repository manages two Helm charts (e.g., `code-server-chart`, `vllm-serve`) and automates packaging and publishing on every `git push` (local pre-push hook only; no CI runner required).

## How it works

- Local pre-push hook runs `scripts/helm_publish.sh` and only processes charts that changed relative to the branch upstream (initial push publishes all charts).
  - If any processed chart fails to package/push, the Git push is aborted.

## Configure registry

1. Create `.env` and fill in:

```
HELM_OCI_NAMESPACE=gitea.example.com/your-user
HELM_USERNAME=your-username
HELM_PASSWORD=your-token-or-password
```

The charts are pushed to `oci://$HELM_OCI_NAMESPACE` (Helm appends the chart name and version). For self-signed or HTTP registries, you can add:

```
HELM_PUSH_EXTRA_ARGS="--insecure-skip-tls-verify --plain-http"
HELM_LOGIN_EXTRA_ARGS="--insecure --plain-http"
```

## Chart discovery

No configuration needed by default. The script auto-discovers chart directories by looking for `Chart.yaml` up to depth 2 (excluding nested `charts/` vendor dir).

By default you don't need to set `CHART_DIRS`; the hook processes only the charts that changed.

## Run manually

```
./scripts/helm_publish.sh
```

Use `DRY_RUN=1` to only package locally:

```
DRY_RUN=1 ./scripts/helm_publish.sh
```
