Wordpress: Create a Helm Chart for this container

[eherot]

Fairly self explanatory. Helm Charts make it easier to deploy containers on Kubernetes. There is already one for the Bitnami Wordpress container and it is very handy but for various reasons I prefer to use this one.

We have no affiliation to any Helm Charts, they're their own program/organization

While we understand that many users deploy using Helm Charts, we unfortunately do not have the bandwidth or interest in maintaining one. However, this would be a great community project!

I'm actually working on one right now for the company that I'm doing this install for. If there's enough extra bandwidth in this process I will try to upstream it!

To be clear, we don't want it maintained here as it will suffer permanent bitrot (we will not maintain or update it over time), and that would be doing our community a disservice, I think.

I suppose that is a bit of a philosophical question. For me (and a lot of other folks with Kubernetes as the infrastructure management platform), "does it have a helm chart" is quickly becoming the deciding factor when choosing an application. At the same time, locally maintained Helm charts have become a lot more common (With Helm pushing people to do more self-hosting of chart repositories). At any rate, I can definitely appreciate the concern about bitrot. Just something I thought I'd put in my 👍 for.

Closing, as a helm chart is not something we are comfortable with / going to maintain here. Sorry! :heart:

It's ok. I can only wish that all of my feature request rejections were so friendly. 😁
