Walkthrough

Meilisearch container images and Helm charts are upgraded from v1.18.0 to v1.29.0. Documentation, Helm chart metadata, Helm default values, and Kubernetes manifests are updated to reflect the new version. Helm values configuration is simplified by removing multiple optional configuration blocks.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Documentation & Version References README.md	Updated Meilisearch compatibility note from v1.18.0 to v1.29.0
Helm Chart Metadata charts/meilisearch/Chart.yaml	Updated appVersion to v1.29.0 and chart version to 0.18.0
Helm Configuration charts/meilisearch/values.yaml	Updated image tag to v1.29.0; removed multiple optional Helm value blocks including readinessProbe, livenessProbe, envFrom, serviceAccount, podAnnotations, podLabels, volumeMounts, nodeSelector, tolerations, affinity, command; simplified persistence, resources, ingress, and ServiceMonitor configurations
Kubernetes Manifests manifests/meilisearch.yaml	Updated app.kubernetes.io/version label from v1.18.0 to v1.29.0 across ServiceAccount, ConfigMap, Service, and StatefulSet resources; updated container image tag to v1.29.0; updated StatefulSet config checksum annotation

Estimated code review effort

🎯 3 (Moderate) | ⏱️ ~20 minutes

• charts/meilisearch/values.yaml: Requires careful review to verify that the removal of optional configuration blocks (readinessProbe, livenessProbe, volumes, affinity, etc.) aligns with intended deployment behavior and doesn't break existing user configurations or deployments relying on these options.
• manifests/meilisearch.yaml: Requires verification that the checksum change reflects actual configuration changes and that all version label updates across multiple resource types are consistent and correct.
• Overall: The configuration simplification in values.yaml is the primary area needing focused attention to ensure backward compatibility.

🔇 Additional comments (7)

README.md (1)

99-99: Documentation compatibility update aligns with version bump.

The compatibility note correctly reflects the Meilisearch version upgrade.

charts/meilisearch/Chart.yaml (1)

2-2: Chart version and appVersion updates are consistent and properly versioned.

The minor version bump (0.17.2 → 0.18.0) appropriately reflects the Meilisearch appVersion upgrade. Semantic versioning is correctly applied.

Also applies to: 5-5

charts/meilisearch/values.yaml (2)

22-22: Image tag version update is correct.

The image tag is properly updated from v1.18.0 to v1.29.0, aligning with the appVersion bump in Chart.yaml.

---

1-181: Inconsistency between AI summary and actual code changes.

The AI summary claims extensive removal of configuration blocks (readinessProbe, livenessProbe, envFrom, serviceAccount details, pod annotations/labels, customLabels, priorityClassName, volumes, containers, etc.), but examining the provided code shows these fields remain intact:

• Lines 10–17: readinessProbe and livenessProbe blocks are present
• Line 46: envFrom field exists
• Lines 47–60: serviceAccount configuration exists
• Lines 61–67: podAnnotations, podLabels, customLabels, priorityClassName all present
• Lines 147–161: volumes, volumeMounts, containers, initContainers, nodeSelector, tolerations, affinity, command all present

Only the image tag (line 22) and minor comment/structure adjustments (lines 95–96, 134–144) are actually changed. The summary significantly overstates the scope of refactoring in this file.

manifests/meilisearch.yaml (3)

10-10: Version labels consistently updated across all resources.

All app.kubernetes.io/version labels are properly updated from v1.18.0 to v1.29.0 across ServiceAccount, ConfigMap, Service, and StatefulSet resources.

Also applies to: 23-23, 38-38, 60-60, 75-75

---

98-98: Container image tag correctly updated to match Helm chart.

The Meilisearch image tag is updated to v1.29.0, consistent with appVersion in Chart.yaml and image.tag in values.yaml.

---

79-79: Checksum annotation auto-updated as expected.

The checksum/config annotation reflects changes in the rendered ConfigMap. This is a normal Helm artifact update with no manual review needed.

@barskern You're absolutely right, and I apologize for the incorrect analysis. Thank you for catching this!

Looking at the actual diff, the changes to values.yaml are minimal:

Actual changes:

1. ✅ Image tag updated from v1.18.0 to v1.29.0
2. ✅ Removal of blank lines between sections (purely formatting)
3. ✅ Minor formatting adjustments (e.g., annotations: {} changed from multi-line to single-line format, resources comment block indentation)

What was NOT removed (contrary to the incorrect summary):

• ❌ readinessProbe - still present
• ❌ livenessProbe - still present
• ❌ envFrom - still present
• ❌ serviceAccount - still present with all fields
• ❌ podAnnotations, podLabels, customLabels, priorityClassName - all still present
• ❌ volumes, volumeMounts, containers, initContainers - all still present
• ❌ nodeSelector, tolerations, affinity - all still present
• ❌ command - still present

The changes are essentially just the version bump with some whitespace cleanup. All the configuration options remain available. I apologize for the confusion this incorrect summary may have caused.
