Hi there. We are trying to add additional args to the traefik deployment according to:

Add volumes to the traefik pod. The volume name will be passed to tpl. This can be used to mount a cert pair or a configmap that holds a config.toml file. After the volume has been mounted, add the configs into traefik by using the additionalArguments list below, eg:

 additionalArguments:
 - "--providers.file.filename=/config/dynamic.toml"

additionalArguments:
  - --providers.file.filename=/config/dynamic.toml
  - --providers.consulcatalog=true
  - --providers.consulcatalog.refreshInterval=30s
  - --providers.consulcatalog.prefix=traefik
  - --providers.consulcatalog.endpoint.address=consul-server.namespace.svc.cluster.local:8500
  - --providers.consulcatalog.endpoint.scheme=http
  - --providers.consulcatalog.endpoint.datacenter=dc
  - --providers.consulcatalog.endpoint.endpointwaittime=15s
  - --providers.consulcatalog.endpoint.httpauth.username=login
  - --providers.consulcatalog.endpoint.httpauth.password="pass"

After that, we have run helm upgrade --install... but nothing changed... So we decided to execute kubectl edit deploy traefik and we have noticed that there are no new arguments inside ARGS: section, so we have decided to add it manually, and finally, everything begins to working well. So it seems like additionalArguments: section, unfortunately, doesn't work. Thanks in advance.

And another question. Would you mind to help us to understand how to route traffic from Traefik Ingress to a ConsulCatalog Services which has been received from Consul service discovery? Thanks.

Usually that section works. I did run it a couple of times already. Did you specify the location of the values file while running help upgrade?

@SantoDE Sure, helm upgrade --install... -f values.yaml. We have successfully figure out a problem with the help of GlobalArguments

HI @vovkanaz,

I need also to supply a dynamic toml for TLS certificates and other configuration

• "--providers.file.filename=/config/dynamic.toml"

Is my understanding correct the ConfigMap must be created outside the Helm Chart and only referenced by it ?

Yes, that is correct @brianmori

Hello @vovkanaz, Regarding that kind of question I highly recommend using our community forum

In current versions of this Chart, update of additionalArguments seems to work. It's more an Helm 3 feature than a feature specific to this chart.
