Feature Proposal: Add Flag `--image-patterns` to cmd
Currently , if we would like to enable relocateContainerImages=true feature to push image to target and modify the image repo in new helm chart, it requires the source helm chart has embeded .relok8s-images.yaml , like mariadb chart in https://charts.app-catalog.vmware.com/.
But unfortunately, NOT all helm charts have this file embeded, even the bitnami helm charts. Maybe only those charts in https://charts.app-catalog.vmware.com will include this file in the world.
The relok8s (https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/asset-relocation-tool-for-kubernetes) has a flag --image-patterns to specific an external .relok8s-images.yaml , which it's more friendly , not making it a hard requirement of source chart.
So design proposal: add --image-patterns :
People can create an external pattern file my-pattern.yaml (external means standalone, out of helm charts)
Usage
charts-syncer sync --image-patterns my-pattern.yaml
In this way, every charts can be "relocated", not limited to those in catalog.vmware.com.
Hope this is can be fulfilled and make this open source tool more useful and friendly. then we can have a my-pattern.yaml to cover all helm charts to be synced, instead of modify the helm packages which we cannot control.
Yes this would be a nice feature, currently I'm forced to use a separate tool for syncing the required images which adds complexity.
