Highlights

Flux v2.4.0 is a feature release. Users are encouraged to upgrade for the best experience.

For a comprehensive overview of new features and API changes included in this release, please refer to the Announcing Flux 2.4 GA blog post.

This release marks the General Availability (GA) of Flux Bucket API. The Bucket v1 API comes with new features including: proxy support, mTLS and custom STS configuration for AWS S3 and MinIO LDAP authentication.

The GitRepository v1 API gains support for OIDC authentication. Starting with this version, you can authenticate against Azure DevOps repositories using AKS Workload Identity.

The OCIRepository v1beta2 API gains support for proxy configuration thus allowing dedicated HTTP/S Proxy authentication on multi-tenant Kubernetes clusters.

The HelmRelease v2 API gains support for disabling JSON schema validation of the Helm release values during installation and upgrade. And allows adopting existing Kubernetes resources during Helm release installation.

The Flux controllers are now built with Go 1.23 and their dependencies have been updated to Kubernetes 1.31, Helm 3.16, SOPS 3.9 Cosign 2.4 and Notation 1.2.

❤️ Big thanks to all the Flux contributors that helped us with this release!

Kubernetes compatibility

This release is compatible with the following Kubernetes versions:

Kubernetes version Minimum required
v1.29 >= 1.29.0
v1.30 >= 1.30.0
v1.31 >= 1.31.0

[!NOTE]
Note that the Flux project offers support only for the latest three minor versions of Kubernetes.
Backwards compatibility with older versions of Kubernetes and OpenShift is offered by vendors such as
ControlPlane that provide enterprise support for Flux.

OpenShift compatibility

Flux can be installed on Red Hat OpenShift cluster directly from OperatorHub using Flux Operator.
The operator allows the configuration of Flux multi-tenancy lockdown, network policies, persistent storage, sharding, vertical scaling and the synchronization of the cluster state from Git repositories, OCI artifacts and S3-compatible storage.

API changes

Bucket v1

The Bucket kind was promoted from v1beta2 to v1 (GA).

  • .spec.certSecretRef allows custom TLS client certificate and CA for secure communication with the S3-compatible storage service.
  • .spec.sts allows custom STS configuration for AWS S3 and MinIO LDAP authentication.
GitRepository v1

The GitRepository kind gains new optional fields with no breaking changes.

New fields:

  • .spec.provider allows specifying an OIDC provider used for authentication purposes. Currently, only the azure provider is supported.

  • .spec.upgrade.disableSchemaValidation allows disabling the JSON schema validation of the Helm release values during upgrade.

Upgrade procedure

Upgrade Flux from v2.3.0 to v2.4.0 either by rerunning bootstrap or by using the Flux GitHub Action.

To upgrade the APIs, make sure the new CRDs and controllers are deployed, and then change the manifests in Git:

  1. Set apiVersion: source.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1 in the YAML files that contain Bucket definitions.
  2. Commit, push and reconcile the API version changes.

Bumping the APIs version in manifests can be done gradually.
It is advised to not delay this procedure as the deprecated versions will be removed after 6 months.

v2.2.3

Compare Source

Highlights

Flux v2.2.3 is a patch release which comes with various fixes and improvements. Users are encouraged to upgrade for the best experience.

💡 For upgrading to Flux v2.2, please see the procedure documented in 2.2.0.

This release updates the Kubernetes dependencies to v1.28.6 and various other dependencies to their latest version to patch upstream CVEs.

All controllers are built with Go 1.21.6 using Alpine Linux 3.19.1 base image.

[!NOTE]
Due to breaking changes in Helm v3.14.0, the helm-controller version included in this patch release comes with Helm SDK v3.13.3.
A preview build of the helm-controller with the latest Helm SDK is available at helm-controller#879.

Fixes:

  • Reconciling empty directories and directories without Kubernetes manifests no longer results in an error. This regressing bug was introduced with the kustomize-controller upgrade to Kustomize v5.3 and has been fixed in this patch release.
  • The regression due to which Roles and ClusterRoles with aggregated roles were continuous reconciled by kustomize-controller has been fixed.
  • Fix the Git revision displaying when notification-controller sends alerts to Grafana.
  • The HelmRelease status reporting has been improved by ensuring that the stale failure conditions get updated after failure recovery.

See the components changelog for a full list of bug fixes.
