kapp controller pull the imgpkg offline
Can the Kapp controller pull the image and other artifacts from the local imgpkg tarball?
This repository is for the CLI kapp and not the controller. I will move this issue to the appropriate repo.
However, kapp-controller will only pull from a registry. I am struggling a bit to imagine why we would want this as kapp-controller runs on the cluster.
Could you elaborate on your use case? I think we are missing some bits here.
think about an Edge cluster rather a single node cluster and it is Airgapped having no access to any registry we have the freedom to load the images locally to the container runtime and we can also facilitate the imgpkg tar ball in the host itself
Ah I see, I believe right now the only way forward here would be to spin up a local registry on that node.

yes but the problem is we can end up with issues related to storage if the server is bare-metal or in a Edge scenario or the storage is limited
I believe to implement the feature I am asking for, might take some time as it will be a shift from the current architecture. Is that the right understanding?
kapp-controller does cache images referred to with shasum references. It won't pull these images twice. Does this solve the issue at hand?
