Compare (diff) different versions of the same Helm chart

[alen-z]

Hi,

I love Artifact Hub.

From my experience, I think community would value the ability to compare/diff different versions of the same Helm chart.

That would be awesome for few reasons:

• Check quickly for changes during upgrade. Changelog often does not exist or does not offer required level of detail to build confidence prior to the upgrade.
• Kudos to product teams from source Helm repositories that tag Helm charts properly, but it's often very hard to see diff between different versions because they are not tagged. One option is to download Helm charts locally and then compare —not very efficient.

What do you think?

Kind regards,
Alen

Hi @alen-z 👋

This sounds like nice addition! We'll think a bit how we could make this work 🙂

Thanks!

Hope this works 😉

Hey, that's awesome! You are quick to deliver — proper respect.

Only thing that seems very beneficial would be comparing values.yaml between different versions and then drill down to templates if needed (that you've made possible).

Nice work.

Edit: Another suggestion is to enable sponsorship for this project.

Thanks, we are glad you like it!

We'll do something similar for values soon, we'll keep you posted 😉

Such an awesome feature! Saves so much time for initial evaluation of changes introduced compared to previous version.

That's it from me :) Keep up excellent work you are doing.
