gatekeeper/gatekeeper

Runs on your laptop

Review a recorded configuration for gatekeeper/gatekeeper@3.22.2. Read its exact Kubernetes objects, required setup, and current evidence before you deploy it.

The first recorded configuration is default. Read its status before use; it is not yet a polished public example. The page does not claim every possible values combination.

Evidence labels: Pass has a linked result. Watch names a limit to check. Blocked means do not use that path yet.

Upstream: find this chart on Artifact Hub · Helm documentation. This page adds checked configurations and test results.

Catalog readiness: Review before use.

Licenses: chart Apache-2.0 (the chart source repository's LICENSE, read 2026-08-08). This describes the chart templates, not the packaged application images.

Already reviewed the result? Keep it in ConfigHub when you need history, variants, approvals, or delivery.

What this page gives you

Every chart page follows the same order. Choose a configuration, inspect its objects and setup work, then read the tests that have run. Open the worked examples.

Most choices are made before you install

The package fixes and checks almost everything at build time. What you set is small and typed.

You can read the test results

Open the saved results for the Helm comparison, live install, and delivery checks.

See hooks, CRDs, and setup work

The page names the work and says which delivery path has actually run.

What To Use

default configuration: 30 rendered objects · 1 image · 0 target prerequisites · 2 hook or setup routes · 7/7 checks passing. These counts come from the linked test records.

Four Separate Questions

Inspecting a source, producing objects, checking a destination, and checking a live result are different jobs. A Catalog match is useful for comparison but is not required. A missing destination or deployment is shown as not run or blocked, not as a failed configuration.

What This Chart Contains

Shipping a chart as plain rendered YAML is faster and simpler, and it silently drops anything Helm was going to do afterwards. This section reports what a scan of the packaged chart found, across 40 files.

ConstructFoundWhy it matters when a chart ships as plain YAML
Helm hooks17Hook Jobs never fire, or fire under a different hook dialect.
Webhook configuration2An empty certificate bundle makes admission fail closed.
Capability branching4The chart chooses apiVersions from the cluster it renders against.
Custom resource definitions17Per-file delivery can race the definitions the resources depend on.

A flattening-safety verdict has decided this version: default:flatten-with-routes; no-crds:unsafe-to-flatten. The verdict records one disposition per construct and names any companion artifact a flattened bundle must ship.

A construct being present does not make a chart unflattenable. Most are switched on or off by values, and a verdict records which ones the base you choose actually reaches. Read the catalog-wide evidence for how common each one is.

What The Starting Configuration Records

A base variant is a starting configuration we have already rendered and checked. Pick the one whose trade-off you want; the table below shows what each one changes. How the values for each are chosen.

The default base-variant record connects those Helm inputs to the Kubernetes objects, remaining requirements, hooks, CRDs, checks, and OCI status. Open it when you need the complete starting record rather than only the rendered YAML.

Open the full rendered YAML to read the actual manifest output. The render record and setup section explain the inputs, tests, CRDs, hooks, and other work around it.

If new Helm values create a useful starting configuration, record another base variant with its own inputs and checks. If one environment changes a field after rendering, record that change in a ConfigHub variant.

Choose base variant

Pick the supported Helm configuration for this chart: default, no-CRDs, existing Secret, HA, server-only, or another listed option.

Record inputs

Keep the values, namespace, release name, source lock, default render intent, full YAML output, package base, test results, and setup instructions together.

Handle chart extras

CRDs, hooks, setup jobs, external Secrets, target facts, and webhook certificates are recorded as chart-specific choices. Some are included in a base variant, some need a setup step, and some are blocked until there is a safe path.

Advanced: apply it or upload it

Run the whole sequence as one script, prerequisites included: try.sh renders and applies to Kubernetes without an account; confighub.sh renders and uploads to your ConfigHub Space.

Before you run try.sh: it changes your current kubectl context. It runs the named prerequisites and applies the rendered objects. Read it first and use a disposable test cluster. confighub.sh does not apply anything to Kubernetes.

You should see something like this

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.

First-Run Caveats

Some chart paths need a small preparation step before the cub path feels as smooth as Helm. We show those steps here so the first run does not surprise you.

CaveatWhat to do
Universal caveatsUse declared inputs or bases instead of Helm --set. For direct delivery, define pruning and field-conflict behavior. Use Argo CD or Flux when that controller path and its pruning settings are recorded for the selected preset.
Shared placeholder passwordNo shared placeholder password caveat recorded for this chart.
CRD first-orderingYes. CRD and admission-webhook prerequisites must be checked before apply.

Hooks, CRDs, And Setup Work

Some Helm charts need work before, during, or after apply: CRDs, hooks, setup jobs, webhook certificates, migrations, generated Secrets, or checks. For each chart, the catalog should make the choice clear: include it in the base variant, split it into a separate base variant, run a setup step, use a GitOps action where evidence exists, require an existing target resource, or block it when there is no safe default.

What each base needs before apply

These requirements come from the same base definition as the rendered objects. The render intent keeps the chart inputs, required Secrets or CRDs, lifecycle routes, and evidence together.

Base variantRequired resourceHow to provide itFull record
no-crds17 CRDsIncluded in the OCI package as prerequisites/target-facts/no-crds-crds.yaml. It applies missing CRDs server-side. The generated try script leaves existing CRDs under their current owner and waits for them before the workload.full render intent

If no route is shown, that does not prove the upstream chart has no hooks. It means the public catalog has no chart-specific action to show yet; check the matrix or send a problem chart if hook behavior should be modeled. Direct apply, Argo CD, Flux, and upgrade implementations are tracked separately. One passing implementation does not prove the others.
