Add possibility to choose external secret in values.yaml

[furieuxjk]

Hi!

Nice project is underway.

I would like to suggest the possibility to add secret (RustFS instance password) externally instead of putting it directly into values.yaml file.

Something like this:

credentials:
existingSecret: my-k8s-secret
userKey: username
passwordKey: password

Then I can have Kubernetes Secrets file my-k8s-secret which will have userKey and passwordKey defined.

Hi, I'm sorry for not answering that long, I apparently didn't enable notifications for this project.

You don't have to use the helm chart to create an instance, it's a pretty simple manifest after all. The chart itself is creating two resources: an instance cr and a secret. If we use an external secret, then it's going to become an instance only, and using a chart for that would not make much sense in my opinion

I expect that chart is used with helm-secrets plugin and password is encrypted with sops.
