fix(archivebox)!: align chart with ArchiveBox 0.9.x - #1984
Align ArchiveBox with the upstream 0.9.x runtime and configuration contract:
update the official image and application metadata to 0.9.77
use the real 5797 listener and allow a configurable application port
preserve the upstream entrypoint, UID/GID autodetection, and runtime privilege drop
support external PostgreSQL through Secret-backed credentials
use BASE_URL, SERVER_SECURITY_MODE, and PUBLIC_ADD_VIEW with current upstream terminology
remove retired search backend and publicSnapshots chart values
document the single-writer, upgrade, PostgreSQL, and backup boundaries
Maintainer completion adds:
bounded repair of a root-owned /data mount without recursively changing existing collections
authenticated PostgreSQL readiness before application startup
complete chart contracts for common annotations, backup workload identity, dedicated ServiceAccount, and hardened backup containers
runtime coverage for a non-default application port and external PostgreSQL on a non-default port
explicit live-filesystem and external-PostgreSQL backup/restore guidance
Breaking changes
Saved values containing archivebox.publicSnapshots are rejected so privacy behavior cannot change silently. Manage snapshot permissions in the ArchiveBox UI. Review custom security contexts because the upstream entrypoint now owns UID/GID detection and privilege dropping.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The chart updates ArchiveBox to 0.9.77 and adds optional external PostgreSQL and S3 workload identity support. It changes startup, security, URL, backup, and annotation settings. It removes publicSnapshots and searchBackendEngine and updates tests, examples, and operational guidance.
The chart updates the image version and defines PostgreSQL, URL, security, UID/GID, and annotation settings. The Deployment prepares data ownership, optionally waits for PostgreSQL, and starts the server on the configured port. Tests and CI fixtures cover the rendered settings and database connection.
The backup CronJob can use a dedicated ServiceAccount and pod identity credentials instead of static S3 credentials. Templates configure the region, security contexts, upload settings, and conditional Secret creation. Tests cover workload identity and validation.
helmforgedev/charts#1865: Adds the ArchiveBox PVC keep policy; this change routes that annotation through the shared rendering helper.
Suggested labels:enhancement
Suggested reviewers:mberlofa
Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review e6e71
Scheduled backups can fail for private files owned by the ArchiveBox data user, so the archiver needs read access before merge. PostgreSQL startup failures are also hard to diagnose because the cause is hidden.

Move the required-field checks into values.schema.json.
The externalDatabase required-field validation uses fail in the template. A JSON Schema if/then/required with minLength: 1 can express the same rules. Schema validation runs before rendering and gives earlier errors. The publicSnapshots removal check needs hasKey, so keep it as a template check or use additionalProperties: false.
Based on learnings: prefer declarative validation in values.schema.json over template-level fail.

Container starts as root with extra capabilities by default.
The default securityContext now sets runAsUser: 0 and runAsNonRoot: false. It also adds CHOWN, DAC_OVERRIDE, FOWNER, SETUID, and SETGID. This is a documented design choice, because the upstream entrypoint drops privileges. The result is a weaker default posture, and clusters that enforce Pod Security restricted will reject the pod. Document this in the README. Also document how to run as non-root by setting securityContext and fsGroup explicitly.

Deployment to zero replicas before each backup, and with PostgreSQL keep it
stopped until both the database and /data backups complete.

well as SQLite, and add a PostgreSQL backup procedure that specifies the

Update to 0.9.77 with upstream entrypoint ownership handling, configurable
server port, built-in Sonic search, canonical BASE_URL, and Secret-backed
external PostgreSQL. Add regression tests and migration documentation.
BREAKING CHANGE: replace publicAddLinks with publicAddPage and remove
publicSnapshots in favor of ArchiveBox permissions. The entrypoint now
starts as root to prepare paths before dropping application privileges.
Related to helmforgedev#1882
Validation: 60 unit tests, strict Helm lint, all CI renders and kubeconform,
all examples, Artifact Hub lint, and direct Kubescape scan (78.79%) passed.
Local k3d/runtime verification was not run, as requested by the PR author.
The repository helper's extensionless Kubescape input remains a runner
issue; the identical rendered .yaml passed the security score gate.
Restore existing wording except where chart behavior requires a correction.
Remove duplicate CI fixtures and the separate PostgreSQL example and upgrade
guide; keep concise configuration and migration notes in the README.
Retain all targeted unit tests and application changes. Default port remains
5797; non-default 8080 is used only by the port-override unit test.
Validation: 60 unit tests, strict lint, remaining CI scenarios and kubeconform,
examples, Artifact Hub, and direct Kubescape scan passed. Runtime validation
was not run.
Remove the value, schema entry, environment override, test assertion, and
documentation references. Use ArchiveBox's upstream Sonic default.
Restore the original backup guidance and remove added defensive prose.
Validation: 60 unit tests, strict lint, CI renders and kubeconform, examples,
Artifact Hub, and direct Kubescape scan (78.79%) passed.
Replace change-oriented wording with direct descriptions of the defaults
and storage layout. Preserve unrelated original copy.
Validation: strict Helm lint, all 60 unit tests, schema JSON, and local
documentation links passed. Application behavior is unchanged.
@pirate, welcome to HelmForge, and thank you for contributing these upstream ArchiveBox corrections and for sharing the 0.9.x runtime context.
I completed the branch with the repository-wide contracts and runtime evidence needed for merge. The maintainer-side adjustments were:
restored a bounded /data ownership init because a fresh PVC remained root:root and ArchiveBox refused to start; it changes only a root-owned mount root and preserves existing collection ownership
added an authenticated PostgreSQL readiness init to avoid startup crash loops while an external database becomes available
Validation is green: contract-check, standards/dependencies, 60 Helm unit tests, and the full 16-layer chart gate, including every k3d scenario. I kept your contribution authorship while rebasing the branch onto current main and normalizing the release metadata.
Show the last PostgreSQL error when wait-for-database fails.
Line 94 sends the Python stderr to /dev/null. After 300 seconds, the init container prints only "PostgreSQL did not become reachable". It does not show the cause. A wrong password, an unknown host, a refused connection, or an unknown database all look the same in kubectl logs. The Init:Error and Init:CrashLoopBackOff states then give the operator no diagnostic. Capture the error output and print it in the final failure message.
Proposed change
- until python -c '...' 2>/dev/null; do+ until err="$(python -c '...' 2>&1)"; do
attempt=$((attempt + 1))
if [ "${attempt}" -ge 150 ]; then
- echo "PostgreSQL did not become reachable within 300 seconds" >&2+ echo "PostgreSQL did not become reachable within 300 seconds: ${err}" >&2
exit 1
fi
Keep the existing Python one-liner where '...' appears.

- Around line 83-85: The documented five-minute PostgreSQL startup bound does
not match the init container’s possible wait time. Reconcile the claim with the
behavior around the init container’s connection-attempt loop: enforce a
five-minute deadline, or document the longer bound and update its 300-second
timeout error message to match.

access method that avoids rewriting the live volume’s ownership, preserving the
existing security safeguards.
