Summary

This PR establishes comprehensive testing and validation infrastructure for the Jellyfin Helm chart:

  • ✅ 603 helm-unittest tests - 100% pass rate (20 test suites)
  • ✅ PR checks workflow - 7 automated validations for all PRs
  • ✅ Template improvements - conditional rendering and enhanced logic
  • ✅ CI configuration - yamllint, markdownlint, chart-testing configs

Changes

1. Test Suite Fixes (603 tests, 100% passing)

Fixed all helm-unittest test failures by addressing:

  • Volume contains assertions now include full object structure (PVC, hostPath with type: Directory, emptyDir)
  • ServiceMonitor uses port name "http" instead of numeric port
  • NetworkPolicy port references and egress rule structure corrections
  • Image tag tests use semver regex pattern instead of hardcoded versions
  • dnsPolicy path handling (only exists when explicitly set)
  • documentIndex placement corrected to test level
  • Empty array assertions use lengthEqual count:0 instead of isNull
  • Deployment annotations validate specific values

2. PR Checks Workflow

Added .github/workflows/pr-checks.yaml with 7 essential validations:

  1. helm-docs diff check - ensures README.md is regenerated after values.yaml changes
  2. helm-unittest - runs all 603 tests
  3. helm lint - includes values.schema.json validation
  4. helm template - validates manifest generation
  5. chart-testing (ct lint) - YAML lint, version check, best practices
  6. kubeconform - validates K8s manifests against versions 1.29-1.31
  7. markdownlint - validates markdown documentation

All actions use pinned SHA versions for security.

3. Template Improvements

deployment.yaml enhancements:

  • Added conditional rendering for podSecurityContext, securityContext, resources
  • Improved dnsPolicy logic with automatic ClusterFirstWithHostNet fallback for DLNA/hostNetwork
  • Fixed revisionHistoryLimit to handle zero values correctly (allows disabling revision history)

4. CI Configuration Files

  • ct.yaml - chart-testing configuration
  • .yamllint.yaml - YAML linting rules (ignores templates/ and .github/ directories)
  • .markdownlint.yaml - markdown linting rules

5. Linting Fixes

  • Removed trailing spaces from values.yaml
  • Regenerated README.md with helm-docs
  • Updated yamllint config to ignore Helm templates (Go template syntax conflicts with YAML parser)

Testing

Local validation completed successfully:

✅ helm-docs: README synchronized
✅ helm-unittest: 603/603 tests passing
✅ helm lint: validation passed (including schema)
✅ helm template: generation successful
✅ yamllint: no critical errors

Breaking Changes

None. All changes are backwards compatible.

feat(chart): add JSON Schema with NetworkPolicy/hostNetwork conflict …
f9d897c 
…validation

Add values.schema.json with comprehensive validation for chart values:
- All core fields with types, defaults, and enums
- Validation preventing NetworkPolicy + hostNetwork conflicts
- Validation preventing NetworkPolicy + DLNA conflicts

The schema uses JSON Schema draft-07 with allOf/if-then logic to enforce
mutual exclusivity: networkPolicy.enabled cannot be true when either
jellyfin.enableDLNA or podPrivileges.hostNetwork is true.

Validated with check-jsonschema against current values.yaml and
test cases for both valid and invalid configurations.

refactor(schema): comprehensive validation with enums, patterns, and …
29d292e 
…detailed documentation

Significantly improve values.schema.json:

- Add enums for all constrained values (pullPolicy, service.type, dnsPolicy,
  deploymentStrategy, ipFamilyPolicy, pathType, persistence.type, accessMode)
- Add regex patterns for Kubernetes-specific formats (size, CIDR, intervals)
- Add port range validation (1-65535, nodePort 30000-32767)
- Add hostname format validation for Ingress/HTTPRoute
- Add required fields for arrays (env.name, imagePullSecrets.name)
- Add detailed structure for envFrom, env, imagePullSecrets
- Add comprehensive descriptions for every field with defaults and examples
- Add uniqueItems, minItems, maxItems constraints where applicable

Validated against:
- Invalid size patterns (rejects non-Kubernetes formats)
- Invalid enums (rejects 'nfs' for persistence.type)
- Invalid CIDR notation (IPv4/IPv6 regex)
- Mutual exclusivity (NetworkPolicy vs hostNetwork/DLNA)

test(charts): add integration scenarios and regression tests
9e5d0b8 
Phase 4: Create integration tests for real-world scenarios and regression
tests to lock down all default values.

New test files:
- integration_common_configs_test.yaml: 12 real-world deployment scenarios
  including DLNA home server, secure production, Prometheus monitoring,
  IPv6-only/dual-stack, cloud providers (AWS IRSA, GCP WI), air-gapped,
  minimal resource-constrained, Gateway API HTTPRoute (50+ tests)
- regression_defaults_test.yaml: Comprehensive verification of all default
  values across all resources to prevent accidental changes. Covers
  deployment, service, serviceAccount, persistence, probes, labels,
  API versions, critical defaults (80+ tests)

Integration scenarios tested:
1. DLNA Home Media Server (hostNetwork, NodePort, NAS storage)
2. Secure Production (NetworkPolicy, security contexts, resources, ingress+TLS)
3. Kubernetes with Prometheus (metrics, ServiceMonitor, custom NetworkPolicy)
4. IPv6-only cluster (SingleStack IPv6)
5. Dual-stack networking (IPv4+IPv6, LoadBalancer)
6. Development environment (emptyDir, latest tag, debug logging)
7. High Availability attempt (multiple replicas, ReadWriteMany, pod anti-affinity)
8. AWS with IRSA (EKS role annotations, gp3 storage, NLB, ALB ingress)
9. GCP with Workload Identity (GKE service account annotations)
10. Air-gapped environment (private registry, restrictive NetworkPolicy)
11. Minimal resource-constrained (low CPU/memory limits, emptyDir)
12. Gateway API (HTTPRoute with multiple hostnames)

Regression tests lock down:
- All default values: replicas=1, revisionHistoryLimit=3, ClusterIP service,
  port 8096, IfNotPresent pullPolicy, ClusterFirst dnsPolicy
- Persistence defaults: config 5Gi, media 25Gi, cache emptyDir
- Probe defaults: startup (tcpSocket, 0/10/30), liveness/readiness (httpGet)
- Feature flags: DLNA off, metrics off, NetworkPolicy off, ServiceMonitor off
- API versions and naming patterns
- Critical invariants that must never change

Total: 2 new test files, 130+ new test cases

Major changes:
- Fixed volume `contains` assertions to include full object structure (PVC, hostPath with type: Directory, emptyDir)
- Fixed ServiceMonitor port to use port name "http" instead of number
- Fixed NetworkPolicy port references and egress rule structure
- Fixed image tag tests to use semver regex pattern instead of hardcoded version

fix(ci): resolve yamllint errors and regenerate helm-docs
68125eb 
Fixed yamllint configuration and values.yaml issues:
- Added ignore patterns for templates/ and .github/ directories to yamllint config
  (Helm templates contain Go template syntax that conflicts with YAML syntax)
- Removed trailing spaces from values.yaml:123 (nodePort comment)
- Regenerated README.md with helm-docs to sync with values.yaml changes

yamllint now passes without errors (only warnings remain for long lines in docs).

fix(ci): resolve markdownlint errors and update Kubernetes versions
8353e40 
Markdownlint configuration:
- Disabled MD013 (line-length) - too strict for technical documentation
- Disabled MD022, MD031, MD032 (blanks-around) - helm-docs generated content
- Disabled MD034 (no-bare-urls) - many URLs in helm-docs tables
- Kept MD024 (no-duplicate-heading) - fixed by renaming to "NetworkPolicy Troubleshooting"

README.md changes:
- Renamed "### Troubleshooting" to "### NetworkPolicy Troubleshooting" (line 406)
- Resolves MD024 duplicate heading error

Kubernetes version updates:
- Updated kubeconform validation from 1.29-1.31 to 1.30-1.34
- Now tests against last 5 stable Kubernetes releases
- Removed outdated 1.29, added current 1.32-1.34

Python version:
- Updated to Python 3.14 (tested with act, works correctly)

All changes tested locally, markdownlint now passes.
