[tractusx-dev] How to organize Helm charts in Tractus-X

[<carsten.lenz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello List,
for Tractus-X Github repositories it might not makes sense to spread the product Helm charts across multiple repositories. So, System team is thinking about to create a new repository (e.g., https://github.com/eclipse-charts/), where all products can place their charts (via Pull Request) and releasing the Helm charts and building a Helm repository could be managed in one place.

The repo would look like this:

-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------
/charts/
  |- productA/
  |   |- templates/
  |   |   |- NOTES.txt
  |   |   |- _helpers.tpl
  |   |    `- someTemplate.yaml
  |   |- Chart.yaml
  |    `- values.yaml
  `- productB/
      |- templates/
      |   |- NOTES.txt
      |   |- _helpers.tpl
      |    `- someTemplate.yaml
      |- Chart.yaml
       `- values.yaml
README.md
[ ... ]
-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------8<-------

This approach would have several advantages:
- only one Helm chart release Action (either via GH Actions or Eclipse Jenkins) for all Tractus-X product Helm charts,
- Aligning the Helm Charts to Tractus-X Release Guidelines (TRG), as introducing or changing Helm Charts require a Pull Request
- simplify the Helm repository creating (either via GH Actions or Eclipse Jenkins)
- avoid having several product related repositories hosting the helm chart in Tractus-X

What is your opinion regarding Helm charts in Tractus-X? Feel free to comment!
