hashicorp/terraform

Runs on your laptop

Review a recorded configuration for hashicorp/terraform@1.1.2. 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: the Catalog fetched chart terraform from the Helm repository https://helm.releases.hashicorp.com at version 1.1.2. find this chart on Artifact Hub · Helm documentation. This page adds checked configurations and test results.

Catalog readiness: Review before use.

Licenses: chart MPL-2.0 (the Artifact Hub package record, read 2026-08-08). This describes the chart templates, not the packaged application images.

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: 5 rendered objects · 1 image · 2 target prerequisites · 0 hook or setup steps · 2/4 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 22 files.

ConstructFoundWhy it matters when a chart ships as plain YAML
Helm hooks3Hook Jobs never fire, or fire under a different hook dialect.
Custom resource definitions1Per-file delivery can race the definitions the resources depend on.
Test hooks3Test resources would ship to a cluster that never asked for them.

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

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.

Use this entry in ConfigHub

Every Catalog entry page carries these five steps in this order. Each step says what the Catalog has run for this entry, and a step with a missing precondition gives no command.

Steps 1 and 2 need no account. Install the cub CLI before any cub command. Step 2 uses cub config diff, which cub plugin install confighub/cub-workshop@v0.6.61 adds. This page covers 2 entries, so open the one you want. A live walk on 2026-10-08 ran steps 3 to 5 for bitnami-nginx-24-0-2-http-clusterip and nvidia-gpu-operator-v26-3-3-default. These commands carry the changes that walk needed. It is a dated log and no receipt, so no state on this page rests on it.

Helm chart, base default, version 1.1.2
What is fixed, and what you supply

Fixed when this entry was built. These went into the build, so the objects already carry them. To change one, build the entry again from its source.

  • chart is hashicorp/terraform
  • version is 1.1.2
  • base is default
  • valuesProfile is recipes/hashicorp/terraform/1.1.2/effective-values.yaml
  • namespace is default
  • releaseName is terraform
  • capabilityProfile is {"apiVersions":[],"kubeVersion":"1.30.0"}

Yours to supply or check. The destination must have these before the objects are applied. The words in italics say what the Catalog knows about each.

  • Terraform CLI credentials mounted at /etc/terraform/.terraformrc. kubectl -n default create secret generic terraformrc --from-file=credentials=<path-to-terraform-cli-config> Declared. Not checked on any destination.
  • Sensitive Terraform workspace variables mounted at /tmp/secrets. kubectl -n default apply -f <workspacesecrets-manifest.yaml> Declared. Not checked on any destination.
This entry's plan, and how to test it

These are the steps that plain objects cannot carry. ConfigHub stores them and does not carry them out. The words in italics say what the Catalog knows about each.

  • Before you deliver. 2 Secrets must exist before apply. Terraform CLI credentials mounted at /etc/terraform/.terraformrc. The listing gives the rest. Who: operator. Written down. Not run by the Catalog.
  • When you deliver. Apply the 1 CustomResourceDefinition object first. Wait until every named definition reports the Established condition. The listing gives the rest. Who: whatever applies the objects. Written down. Not run by the Catalog.

Test the install steps yourself. This script carries them out with kubectl on a cluster you choose, with no account. Read it first and use a throwaway cluster. The Catalog has no recorded run of this script.

Test the plain objects. A second script tests the retained objects themselves with kubectl, and it needs no cub and no account. The Catalog has no recorded run of this script.

Compared with plain Helm. The Catalog tried this base beside plain Helm on two local clusters. The result is recorded as blocked, with the reason "parity: semantic object diff". Read the receipt.

Read what a plan is, and why some entries have one.

1. Get the exact objects Run for this entry

The Catalog rendered this entry and retains its 5 objects in one file.

An upload can create more Units than the objects counted here. The installer renders a Namespace, and the upload adds an installer-record Unit.

# fetch the retained objects for this entry
$ curl -fsSL -o hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-default.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/confighub/helm-expt/main/recipes/hashicorp/terraform/1.1.2/revisions/default/r001/rendered/release-objects.yaml

# check the bytes against the listing
$ shasum -a 256 hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-default.yaml

# render this base from the signed package; step 3 uploads this directory
$ cub installer setup --pull oci://europe-west1-docker.pkg.dev/nth-fort-499605-q5/helm-expt/hashicorp-terraform:1.1.2@sha256:0e51444dda2d64c54e8d09b63fbb8076e1da39681f996968f90d8c7145d778b9 --base default --work-dir ./hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-default --non-interactive --namespace default

2. Compare with another version or base Not run for this entry

The listing records no comparison for this entry. The commands run on the retained files, with no account. This version has one other base in the Catalog, no-crds.

# fetch the no-crds base of the same version
$ curl -fsSL -o hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-no-crds.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/confighub/helm-expt/main/recipes/hashicorp/terraform/1.1.2/revisions/no-crds/r001/rendered/release-objects.yaml

# list what differs between the two bases
$ cub config diff hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-default.yaml hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-no-crds.yaml --summary

3. Upload it as a variant Run for this entry

The Catalog saved this entry in ConfigHub. The commands use its signed installer package. Read the log of the live walk on 2026-10-08 · Read the record that states this.

Replace each value in angle brackets with a name of your own. The entry id may already exist as a Space in your organization, and the package name as a Component.

In the live walk, a Space named for the nginx entry's id and a Component named bitnami-nginx already existed, so the walk chose its own names. The --component flag sets the Component label the upload writes on the Space, which is the package name when you omit it.

The cub installer plugin reads your organization from CUB_CONTEXT and ignores --context. If you use a context other than your default, export CUB_CONTEXT first, or the plugin works in your default organization.

# sign in; steps 3 to 5 write to your ConfigHub organization
$ cub auth login

# upload step 1's directory as a Space of Units, under names you choose
$ cub installer upload --work-dir ./hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-default --space <your-space> --component <your-component>

# list the Units the upload created
$ cub unit list --space <your-space>

4. Deploy it Not run for this entry

No delivery run is recorded for this entry. Argo CD has not run, Flux has not run, and kubectl has not run. The commands name the Target workshop/target, which cub cluster up --name workshop creates on a local kind cluster with Argo CD. Use your own Target for a real destination. The listing records 2 inputs that the destination must supply, so read them before you deploy. Read the log of the live walk on 2026-10-08.

Use the Space name you chose in step 3. The delete command is needed because the cloned installer-record Unit carries the Target and Argo CD v3.5.4 cannot read it, a defect seen on cub v0.8.7 and server v0.8.9.

Without that line the walk deployed nothing and Argo CD showed Unknown, while every cub command exited 0. The walk ran the four commands in this order and did not try them without the first publish.

ConfigHub shows nothing when Argo CD fails to read a Release. Run kubectl -n argocd get applications.argoproj.io and read the Sync column, because Healthy alone is not a pass. Argo CD took between 18 seconds and about 5 minutes to read a Release on a cluster made without argobot.

The walk made its cluster with cub cluster up --no-argobot. That command creates two Spaces, a Worker, a Target and a Trigger, opens ports 30010 to 30019 on the machine, and installs Argo CD from an unpinned upstream manifest.

Removing the ConfigHub side does not remove the workload. In the walk, deleting the Application Unit and the Spaces left the Application and its pods running, because the root Application does not prune.

# clone the base onto a Target as a dev variant
$ cub variant create dev <your-space> --target workshop/target --space-pattern "template:<your-space>-dev"

# publish the Release that the cluster's Argo CD pulls
$ cub release publish <your-space>-dev

# delete the installer record, which Argo CD cannot read
$ cub unit delete --space <your-space>-dev installer-record

# publish again without it
$ cub release publish <your-space>-dev

5. Promote a change Partly run for this entry

A promotion ran for this entry. It ran the preview and the promote. The delete and the publish below have no recorded run for this entry. Promotion carries a change in the base to the dev variant. The base changes when you edit a Unit or upload a newer version into the same Space. Read the log of the live walk on 2026-10-08 · Read the record that states this.

The promotion changes the dev Space and publishes nothing. It also adds the installer-record Unit back with the Target. The change reaches the cluster only after the delete and the publish.

The preview lists the whole installer record as added. In the walk, the preview of a one-label change to gpu-operator ran to 405 lines, and about 400 of them were that record.

# preview what the dev variant would take from the base
$ cub variant promote <your-space>-dev --dry-run -o mutations

# promote once you have read the preview
$ cub variant promote <your-space>-dev --change-desc "Pull the reviewed base forward"

# delete the installer record that the promotion adds back
$ cub unit delete --space <your-space>-dev installer-record

# publish the Release that carries the change
$ cub release publish <your-space>-dev
Helm chart, base no-crds, version 1.1.2
What is fixed, and what you supply

Fixed when this entry was built. These went into the build, so the objects already carry them. To change one, build the entry again from its source.

  • chart is hashicorp/terraform
  • version is 1.1.2
  • base is no-crds
  • valuesProfile is recipes/hashicorp/terraform/1.1.2/effective-values-no-crds.yaml
  • namespace is default
  • releaseName is terraform
  • capabilityProfile is {"apiVersions":[],"kubeVersion":"1.30.0"}

Yours to supply or check. The destination must have these before the objects are applied. The words in italics say what the Catalog knows about each.

  • Terraform Workspace CRD managed outside this no-crds preset. kubectl apply -f <terraform-workspace-crd.yaml> Declared. Not checked on any destination.
  • Terraform CLI credentials mounted at /etc/terraform/.terraformrc. kubectl -n default create secret generic terraformrc --from-file=credentials=<path-to-terraform-cli-config> Declared. Not checked on any destination.
  • Sensitive Terraform workspace variables mounted at /tmp/secrets. kubectl -n default apply -f <workspacesecrets-manifest.yaml> Declared. Not checked on any destination.
This entry's plan, and how to test it

The record lists no plan step for this entry.

Test the install steps yourself. This script carries them out with kubectl on a cluster you choose, with no account. Read it first and use a throwaway cluster. The Catalog has no recorded run of this script.

Test the plain objects. A second script tests the retained objects themselves with kubectl, and it needs no cub and no account. The Catalog has no recorded run of this script.

Compared with plain Helm. The Catalog tried this base beside plain Helm on two local clusters. The result is recorded as blocked, with the reason "target-prerequisite: required Secret missing (parity passed)". Read the receipt.

Read what a plan is, and why some entries have one.

1. Get the exact objects Run for this entry

The Catalog rendered this entry and retains its 4 objects in one file.

An upload can create more Units than the objects counted here. The installer renders a Namespace, and the upload adds an installer-record Unit.

# fetch the retained objects for this entry
$ curl -fsSL -o hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-no-crds.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/confighub/helm-expt/main/recipes/hashicorp/terraform/1.1.2/revisions/no-crds/r001/rendered/release-objects.yaml

# render this base from the signed package; step 3 uploads this directory
$ cub installer setup --pull oci://europe-west1-docker.pkg.dev/nth-fort-499605-q5/helm-expt/hashicorp-terraform:1.1.2@sha256:0e51444dda2d64c54e8d09b63fbb8076e1da39681f996968f90d8c7145d778b9 --base no-crds --work-dir ./hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-no-crds --non-interactive --namespace default

2. Compare with another version or base Not run for this entry

The listing records no comparison for this entry. The commands run on the retained files, with no account. This version has one other base in the Catalog, default.

# fetch the default base of the same version
$ curl -fsSL -o hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-default.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/confighub/helm-expt/main/recipes/hashicorp/terraform/1.1.2/revisions/default/r001/rendered/release-objects.yaml

# list what differs between the two bases
$ cub config diff hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-no-crds.yaml hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-default.yaml --summary

3. Upload it as a variant Run for this entry

The Catalog saved this entry in ConfigHub. The commands use its signed installer package. Read the log of the live walk on 2026-10-08 · Read the record that states this.

Replace each value in angle brackets with a name of your own. The entry id may already exist as a Space in your organization, and the package name as a Component.

In the live walk, a Space named for the nginx entry's id and a Component named bitnami-nginx already existed, so the walk chose its own names. The --component flag sets the Component label the upload writes on the Space, which is the package name when you omit it.

The cub installer plugin reads your organization from CUB_CONTEXT and ignores --context. If you use a context other than your default, export CUB_CONTEXT first, or the plugin works in your default organization.

# sign in; steps 3 to 5 write to your ConfigHub organization
$ cub auth login

# upload step 1's directory as a Space of Units, under names you choose
$ cub installer upload --work-dir ./hashicorp-terraform-1-1-2-no-crds --space <your-space> --component <your-component>

# list the Units the upload created
$ cub unit list --space <your-space>

4. Deploy it Not run for this entry

No delivery run is recorded for this entry. Argo CD has not run, Flux has not run, and kubectl has not run. The commands name the Target workshop/target, which cub cluster up --name workshop creates on a local kind cluster with Argo CD. Use your own Target for a real destination. The listing records 3 inputs that the destination must supply, so read them before you deploy. Read the log of the live walk on 2026-10-08.

Use the Space name you chose in step 3. The delete command is needed because the cloned installer-record Unit carries the Target and Argo CD v3.5.4 cannot read it, a defect seen on cub v0.8.7 and server v0.8.9.

Without that line the walk deployed nothing and Argo CD showed Unknown, while every cub command exited 0. The walk ran the four commands in this order and did not try them without the first publish.

ConfigHub shows nothing when Argo CD fails to read a Release. Run kubectl -n argocd get applications.argoproj.io and read the Sync column, because Healthy alone is not a pass. Argo CD took between 18 seconds and about 5 minutes to read a Release on a cluster made without argobot.

The walk made its cluster with cub cluster up --no-argobot. That command creates two Spaces, a Worker, a Target and a Trigger, opens ports 30010 to 30019 on the machine, and installs Argo CD from an unpinned upstream manifest.

Removing the ConfigHub side does not remove the workload. In the walk, deleting the Application Unit and the Spaces left the Application and its pods running, because the root Application does not prune.

# clone the base onto a Target as a dev variant
$ cub variant create dev <your-space> --target workshop/target --space-pattern "template:<your-space>-dev"

# publish the Release that the cluster's Argo CD pulls
$ cub release publish <your-space>-dev

5. Promote a change Partly run for this entry

A promotion ran for this entry. It ran the preview and the promote. The delete and the publish below have no recorded run for this entry. Promotion carries a change in the base to the dev variant. The base changes when you edit a Unit or upload a newer version into the same Space. Read the log of the live walk on 2026-10-08 · Read the record that states this.

The promotion changes the dev Space and publishes nothing. It also adds the installer-record Unit back with the Target. The change reaches the cluster only after the delete and the publish.

The preview lists the whole installer record as added. In the walk, the preview of a one-label change to gpu-operator ran to 405 lines, and about 400 of them were that record.

# preview what the dev variant would take from the base
$ cub variant promote <your-space>-dev --dry-run -o mutations

# promote once you have read the preview
$ cub variant promote <your-space>-dev --change-desc "Pull the reviewed base forward"

# delete the installer record that the promotion adds back
$ cub unit delete --space <your-space>-dev installer-record

# publish the Release that carries the change
$ cub release publish <your-space>-dev

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. 1 CRD object(s) are recorded. Follow the base's recorded plan: apply CRDs first and wait, use a controller-specific ordering rule, or choose the separable CRD base when one is available.

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 steps, and evidence together.

If no plan 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.

No chart-specific action is attached to this page yet. That is not a claim that the upstream chart has no hooks or setup work. It means the public catalog has no per-chart-base variant action to show here; check the catalog filters, the matrix, or send a problem chart if hook behavior should be modeled.

A green render or local live result is not a production support claim. Production support is target-scoped and uses the support-decision artifact when present.
