See what the ingress-nginx Helm chart becomes

1. See what you have today

You have the ingress-nginx chart 4.15.1 with the values of the Catalog's default base, which are the chart's defaults. Helm renders it like this, and the Workshop's check reads the result.

before: plain helm template

$ helm template ingress-nginx ingress-nginx --repo https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx --version 4.15.1 --namespace ingress-nginx --kube-version 1.30.0 > before.yaml
$ cub config check before.yaml
Config: before
Inspecting local Kubernetes objects (static, no infrastructure)

Installs
  18 objects: 2 ClusterRole, 2 ClusterRoleBinding, 1 ConfigMap, 1 Deployment, 1 IngressClass, 2 Job, 2 Role, 2 RoleBinding, 2 Service, 2 ServiceAccount, 1 ValidatingWebhookConfiguration
  namespaces that must already exist: ingress-nginx

Lifecycle work
  [PASS] CRDs: 0
  [NOTE] Helm hooks: 7
  [NOTE] setup Jobs: 2
  [NOTE] admission webhooks needing a certificate: 1
  [PASS] images tagged latest or not tagged: 0

Schema
  [PASS] schema validation: 18 object(s) valid against the default and ecosystem catalogs (flux-schema/0.16.0)

  Free look before you install. Compose it into a cub stack, or run it as a cub app.

The 7 hook objects sit in the same file as everything else. Apply the file and they run at once, outside the order Helm gives them.

Kind	Name	Helm hook
ServiceAccount	`ingress-nginx-admission`	`pre-install,pre-upgrade,post-install,post-upgrade`
ClusterRole	`ingress-nginx-admission`	`pre-install,pre-upgrade,post-install,post-upgrade`
ClusterRoleBinding	`ingress-nginx-admission`	`pre-install,pre-upgrade,post-install,post-upgrade`
Role	`ingress-nginx-admission`	`pre-install,pre-upgrade,post-install,post-upgrade`
RoleBinding	`ingress-nginx-admission`	`pre-install,pre-upgrade,post-install,post-upgrade`
Job	`ingress-nginx-admission-create`	pre-install,pre-upgrade
Job	`ingress-nginx-admission-patch`	post-install,post-upgrade

2. See what the Workshop gives you

The Catalog keeps the objects of its default base for this chart, and a plan for everything that is not an object to apply.

after: the default base

$ cub config check after.yaml
Config: after
Inspecting local Kubernetes objects (static, no infrastructure)

Installs
  11 objects: 1 ClusterRole, 1 ClusterRoleBinding, 1 ConfigMap, 1 Deployment, 1 IngressClass, 1 Role, 1 RoleBinding, 2 Service, 1 ServiceAccount, 1 ValidatingWebhookConfiguration
  namespaces that must already exist: ingress-nginx

Lifecycle work
  [PASS] CRDs: 0
  [PASS] Helm hooks: 0
  [PASS] setup Jobs: 0
  [NOTE] admission webhooks needing a certificate: 1
  [PASS] images tagged latest or not tagged: 0

Schema
  [PASS] schema validation: 11 object(s) valid against the default and ecosystem catalogs (flux-schema/0.16.0)

  Free look before you install. Compose it into a cub stack, or run it as a cub app.

The plan has 1 step.

Step	What it is	What it says
`ingress-nginx/ingress-nginx-admission`	must exist on the target	admission webhook certificate normally created by Helm hook jobs

3. See what changed

	Before, helm template	After, the default base
Objects	18	11
Helm hook objects in the file	7	0
CRDs	0	0
Objects that are the same on both sides	11	11
Plan steps	none	1

4. Try it yourself, with no account

Install cub and the Workshop plugin first.

# before: render the chart as Helm does
$ helm template ingress-nginx ingress-nginx --repo https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx --version 4.15.1 --namespace ingress-nginx --kube-version 1.30.0 > before.yaml

$ cub config check before.yaml

# after: fetch the objects the Catalog keeps for this base
$ curl -fsSL -o after.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/confighub/helm-expt/main/recipes/ingress-nginx/ingress-nginx/4.15.1/revisions/default/r001/rendered/release-objects.yaml

$ cub config check after.yaml

The entry page shows the plan and every other base of this chart.

See it live in ConfigHub

Everything above runs on your own machine with no account. To see the same example in ConfigHub, load it into your own organization with the commands below.

With your own account

Here is what the command does. cub installer is an open-source plugin for the cub CLI. cub installer setup pulls a catalog package and writes its Kubernetes files locally, leaving delivery to kubectl, Argo CD or Flux. The generated scripts stop before doing any work when the plugin or kustomize is missing.

# render the base from the signed package
$ cub installer setup --pull oci://europe-west1-docker.pkg.dev/nth-fort-499605-q5/helm-expt/ingress-nginx-ingress-nginx:4.15.1@sha256:dc0f6c1a8158230957c1cae1b26073339b009b220c79cff0e3df31e9f21c73e4 --base default --work-dir ./ingress-nginx-ingress-nginx-4-15-1-default --non-interactive --namespace ingress-nginx

# sign in to your organization
$ cub auth login

# load the objects as a Space of Units, under names you choose
$ cub installer upload --work-dir ./ingress-nginx-ingress-nginx-4-15-1-default --space <your-space> --component <your-component>

# list what was loaded
$ cub unit list --space <your-space>

What it looks like in ConfigHub

ConfigHub showing the ingress-nginx controller Deployment, at its image line — The helm-catalog organization on 2026-10-25, showing the ingress-nginx controller Deployment, at its image line. It was loaded as this panel describes.

5. Technical notes and disclaimers

Both checks ran on 2026-10-26 with cub v0.9.0, Workshop plugin 0.6.61 and helm v4.1.4+g05fa379. The recorded files and their receipt hold every input and output on this page.
Both sides render for Kubernetes 1.30.0, as the Catalog does, so only the handling differs.
No step of the plan has been run on a cluster for this page. The plan says what a delivery workflow must do, and nothing runs it automatically.
