Extra deploy for Helm chart?

[u0078867]

Is there a way to deploy extra resources using KEDA Helm chart?
For instance, the way it is done via Bitnami charts extraDeploy field, but I don't see it.
Especially, I would like to automatically deploy/undeploy the patch in here: kedacore/keda#4224

Thank you!

Can you elaborate a bit how that would work or how they provide this?

It is a very simple thing to add, see: https://github.com/bitnami/charts/blob/main/bitnami/rabbitmq/templates/extra-list.yaml

Example above with a RabbitMQ chart, but in Bitnami charts this feature is everywhere.

My goal is to deploy/undeploy the patch automatically with the chart, until the official fix is released.

At the moment, I am solving this with helmfile hooks. But wanted to explore if helm chart extra deploys are feasible.

Interesting - What is the motivation to use this over Helm chart dependency? Is it because dependencies don't wait before installing the main chart?

Premise - I am learning about helm charts / helmfile and templating, so it could well be I am saying stupidities ...

The money patch here is not an Helm chart but just a bunch of K8s resources. So I thought it would be easier using the Bitnami classical extraDeploy idea.

In Helm world, you typically create a Helm chart with a dependency on ours if you want to extend.

But I'm not sure what other @kedacore/keda-helm-contributors think? If they are fine and you want to contribute it then that's fine for me as well.
