Prosody is always restart

[wrenix]

Prosody is always restart on helm-chart run, even no values or chart-version changes.

the anti-pattern is here:
https://github.com/jitsi-contrib/jitsi-helm/blob/3744d68b90c0786d2b458d5af7357fc85ed562c3/charts/prosody/templates/statefulset.yaml#L24C73-L25C5

---

Therefore the helm-chart should use an hash from the values (instatt of an timestamp):

https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/function_list/#cryptographic-and-security-functions

e.g. (or an subpart of Values and multiple hash):

labels:
hash: {{ toYaml .Values | sha256sum }}

Hello @wrenix!

Sorry for not answering earlier. Thank you for your PR! I'll review it tomorrow and will let you know if it needs any additional edits before merging.

[wrenix]

thanks, i split it up for an easier review (there are some strange and not well readable expression - so the cleanup is here #86 )

[wrenix]

any update?

[wrenix]

is everything fine with your @spijet ? Or just no time left to speed?

[spijet]

@wrenix, I'm terribly sorry for the delay — had a lot going on IRL.

I have two minor comments about the #84:

1. Can you confirm that it plays nice with setups where people don't explicitly set any passwords or secrets, and so they get re-generated on every deploy? (I assume it does, since the secret hash would be different, but some caution won't hurt)
2. Can you please add the si.jit.meet/ prefix to both annotations to emphasize that it's set by us (Chart developers) and required for smooth operation of the project?

As for #86, I'll have to study it a bit more. I see that you've removed a couple of tpl calls here and there, and some of them may have been used to create semi-dynamic stuff similar to what you can see in Bitnami charts, where you can use templating even inside values. I wanted to implement full-blown templating support for Jitsi chart, but got reluctant and lazy at the same time (reluctant to pull Bitnami's common library chart as a dependency, lazy to implement it myself 😅).

I had some time to look at #86. Thank you very much! It really makes the chart much more readable and consistent than it was before. I added some comments to it and hopefully will add more tomorrow, after I look at it again with a fresh head. :)

[wrenix]

lets only talk here about #84 (for #86 in there PR).

1. it is restarted on every change in env, secretEnvs and extraEnvFrom (like any other value inside of the template section). Only on change of values which are references inside of extraEnvFrom, that should not be an job of the helmchart, therefore exists: .Values.podAnnotations
2. done

[spijet]

Thank you very much! Can I merge #84 now or should I wait until we finalize #86?

[wrenix]

lets merge it now

[wrenix]

do not forget to increase helm-chart version

[spijet]

Done! Will file a Release now.
