KubeCon update
Kubernetes upgrades for 1.9, and how this breaks/changes Helm

November 30, 2017
Announcements
Helm Summit venue is locked in: The Evergreen in Portland, OR.
21-22 February 2017
There’s space enough for 200 people or less. It’s “super cute.”
Nike is co-sponsoring with Microsoft. There or may not be Nike swag available.
Standup:
Taylor
Working through backlog of PRs.
Coordinating Nike side of sponsoring the summit.
Reviewing Michelle’s Tiller plugin.
Adam
KubeCon preparation.
Starting in on working on Kubernetes 1.9-related changes.
Brian


Steven
Discussing Tiller security with internal teams considering using Helm.
Michelle
Working on a plugin called “secure-tiller” to lock down Tiller for a particular Kubernetes namespace. It deploys Role and RoleBinding objects to restrict Tiller’s permissions. She’s soliciting feedback on whether this pattern and convention is helpful and desired.
Working on securing the venue for the Helm summit.
Matt Fisher
Triaging issues, including a few related to security.
gRPC upgrade
Should we wait until after KubeCon to release?
Helm version 2.8 would bring parity with Kubernetes version 1.9.
Matt Farina
Working on slides for presentation at KubeCon.
Sprig library interface oddities needed accommodation, for a pending release.
Matt Butcher
Cleared out PRs in the queue on Thanksgiving.
Published the secure Tiller/TLS configuration blog post.
There are coming changes to the Helm documentation site.
KubeCon and the Helm Team
Michelle is planning meetings, and wants to know who wants to participate.
Lots of people new to Helm will be there. Keep that in mind when pitching Helm.
Michelle is working on a “cheat sheet” to help explain what’s changing in Helm to keep pace with Kubernetes evolution.
We’d like to find people who are not maintainers to speak on their use of Helm.
Be on the lookout for experience reports, and encourage people to attend the Helm summit a couple of months later.
Discussion
Stepping down from core maintainership role gracefully: Introduce a new category for “emeritus” where one rescinds a previously-held voting role. Open an issue in which to discuss this procedure. The Kubernetes Steering Committee has guidelines that we could borrow.
There are parties that may show up at KubeCon that will paint the Helm community in a bad light. We’ve been improving the documentation in preparation.
Be professional, level-headed, and set a good example. Confrontation isn’t helpful. Matt Farina is willing to intervene and mediate.

Action Items:
Share documentation that addresses these concerns.

IBM would like to open a ticket to discuss this proposal
v2.7.3?
The patch looks good, but there are concerns around the grpc-go PR being backwards-incomaptible between Helm patch releases
November 9, 2017
Announcements
None for today
Standup:
Taylor
Looking at what items need to make it to the next Helm release
Reviewed the "symlink-walk" piece that we needed to remove because it was part of the facebook-go dependencies. Looking pretty good.

Moving charts to a model where owners will be able to make PRs themselves.
Still a little ways out to finalize this, since we need to move to Prow before this can happen
Justin:
Was Sherpa Tsar
Merged an example for overrides
Nikhil:
Working on new chart for Portus Registry
Will run it by folks once it's complete to get some feedback
Discussion Topics
Turning on RBAC by default (kensey - Issue 3098 in GitHub)
Chart PR that was reviewed - reformat chart using RBAC (enable/disable + service account)
Most of the other kubernetes teams have moved to use RBAC by default
Ideally make a decision on this by next dev-meeting
Helm Summit (Taylor)
Current dates were oo close to KubeCon, so makes sense to reschedule
Moved out to Feb 6th and 7th
CFP deadline to moved out to a week after KubeCon
The venue is still being finalized, should be safe to book travel once venue is finalized

Steven
Helping people over the istio helm chart, how to get it installed into the cluster and how to add it to your own service using istio sidecar injection
Found a bug when submitting a chart with no objects caused an error; there’s an argument forming around a chart should be installable even if no resources are deployed
Discussion topics
What other mailing lists do we need other than Kubernetes-helm-core for core team communications?
Need alias for security leaks
Justin: should we pre-seed discussion about what is on the table for breaking changes in Helm 3?
We should rope in everyone on a 45 minute dev call to discuss what’s the scope of the project for helm 3, whether charts compatibility should break between Helm 2 and Helm 3, etc.
Should we discuss about the helm summit at KubeCon?
Yes

Working with Fisher on creating a Helm-dev google group for notes, voting etc.
Discussion
Helm 2.7 timeline
Butcher asks if there’s anything other than k8s 1.8 that should get in before we cut 2.7
Taylor mentions there’s the secrets backend that would be good to get in, but we’re still working on getting some documentation for that PR
Matt Farina relays community unrest around the release delay between a kubernetes release and a helm release supporting that kubernetes release
We should cut a release candidate once k8s 1.8 support is in Helm so users can test Helm on k8s 1.8 and try that out

Kube version in Helm template
Related PR: https://github.com/kubernetes/helm/pull/2898
We can mock things out like we do in tests. We would mock against the current kubernetes version we build against
Template is no longer just for debugging, but also for rendering templates. It isn’t a preferred use case, but we are ok with adding in flags to enable this functionality
Output formatting for Helm
This is a complex issue that Adam already tried
It might be cool to have, but there will be some work
The main benefit would be viewing what the release looks like from a machine readable standpoint

Recording:
One of the SIG-Apps leads will record via Zoom
Set up YouTube channel (Michelle)
Each week, add link to the repo



Helm Commandeer

Adopt existing resources into a chart/release
Use Case: Bootstrap cluster, install Tiller, then turn around and capture the bootstrapped resources as charts/resources
Butcher/Scott: Capturing existing resources for already-deployed Kubernetes clusters
Steve: Trimming out state information is painful. Might be nice to have a “spec” that an object can be imported into
Majiec: Two arguments for doing this as a plugin instead:
It can make use of Helm as libraries
It forces improvements of the API
Lachie: Concern is with starting to confuse what the “source of truth” is for features.
Taylor: Okay, I do it as a plugin, with the goal of making it a “gold standard” plugin



CircleCI/automation/etc

Majiec: The discussion so far is that we are up to limits of CircleCI. But my own experience is that we have been able to run tests for about :30 in CircleCI. Maybe we still can run a Docker-in-Docker Kubernetes cluster
Adam: I actually reserved you a dedicated e2e resource
Scott: It would be great to be able to kick off building OS packages and have that trigger on releases, as an extension of release management.
Fisher: Maybe you (Scott) and I can chat about that
Lachie: Chart maintainers are also talking about that today
