Helm datasource: Incorrect determination of latest release (wrong homepage & sourceUrl)

[klasvo]

How are you running Renovate?

Self-hosted Renovate CLI

Which platform you running Renovate on?

GitLab (.com or self-hosted)

Which version of Renovate are you using?

43.218.0

Please tell us more about your question or problem

I have added a source URL in some of my (existing) helm charts, but Renovate does not find those. This is due to

renovate/lib/modules/datasource/helm/schema.ts

Line 63 in c1426d0

const latestRelease = helmReleases[0];

, where Renovate takes the first entry in the list of helm releases to determine homepage and sourceUrl.

The helm repository server I use (Sonatype Repository Manager) lists the helm releases in ascending order, such that the first entry is the oldest. And therefore Renovate does not find the added sourceUrl in newer releases.

For a new helm chart that has sourceUrl set in the first release, it works like a charm.

I suggest changing how the latest release is determined by either looking at the first and the last or by ordering all releases according to version and then choosing the newest one.

Cheers
Volker
