0.2.0

[0.2.0] - 2025-11-08

Added

• New annotations value for configurable Deployment/StatefulSet metadata annotations
• Support for applying annotations to workload controllers (Deployment/StatefulSet) independently from pod annotations

Fixed

• IMPORTANT: Stakater Reloader annotation placement corrected - now applies to Deployment/StatefulSet metadata instead of pod template metadata
  • This follows the correct Kubernetes pattern where Reloader watches workload resources, not pods
  • Prevents unnecessary pod restarts when annotations change
  • Aligns with official Stakater Reloader documentation

Changed

• BREAKING: Removed hardcoded reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true" annotation from deployment.yaml and statefulset.yaml templates
  • Users who rely on Stakater Reloader must now explicitly set this annotation in their values:

    annotations:
      reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"

  • This change makes the chart more flexible and removes opinionated defaults

Migration Guide

If you were previously relying on the automatic Stakater Reloader annotation, update your values file:

# Add to your values.yaml or values override
annotations:
  reloader.stakater.com/auto: "true"
