helm repo add library https://core.harbor.domain/library Error

[openstep]

I try to add my harbor to helm, but getting the below error:

Error: looks like "https://core.harbor.domain/library" is not a valid chart repository or cannot be reached: error unmarshaling JSON: while decoding JSON: json: cannot unmarshal string into Go value of type repo.IndexFile

I also tried with oci://core.harbor.domain/library but getting the same error.

How to add the harbor repo ro local helm?

harbor 2.8
helm v3.11.1 but same error with v3.8.0

I can however push, pull to/from the repo
helm push package-1.12.1.tgz oci://core.harbor.domain/library

you can use this comnand to test: helm repo add test https://core.harbor.domain/chartrepo/library , if need user and password, helm repo add test --username=xxx --password=xxx https://core.harbor.domain/chartrepo/library

How do you create the chartrepo/library? On my installation there isn't a tab for chart repos, only a single repositories tab:

Maybe in the this new version, the authors removed the helm charts tab
Here is a screenshot from an older version:

chartrepo is a fixed path, you can try it, i I haven't tried it on version 2.8.

#17958

No, it is not working either:
chartrepo/library" is not a valid chart repository or cannot be reached: failed to fetch https://core.harbor.domain/chartrepo/library/index.yaml : 404 Not Found

Also trying to use harbor as my helm repo. With chartmuseum support gone in 2.8, how do we go about adding our harbor instance as a helm repo? I'm getting the same errors as OP.
Thanks!

Please refer this (https://github.com/goharbor/harbor/wiki/Migrate-helm-chart-to-oci-registry-in-Harbor), since chart has been removed in 2.8

Possibly a dumb question but I installed 2.8 as my initial install so I don't need to do any migrations I just need to be able to "helm repo add harbor harbor.domain.tld". It seams the /chartrepo/ does not exist as a fixed path anymore, so what path do I use as the URL to add my chart repo.

helm repo add --username=admin harbor-charts https://harbor.domain.tld/chartrepo/charts
Password:
Error: looks like "https://harbor.domain.tld/chartrepo/charts" is not a valid chart repository or cannot be reached: failed to fetch https://harbor.domain.tld/chartrepo/charts/index.yaml : 404 Not Found
helm repo add --username=admin harbor-charts https://harbor.domain.tld/charts
Password:
Error: looks like "https://harbor.domain.tld/charts" is not a valid chart repository or cannot be reached: error unmarshaling JSON: while decoding JSON: json: cannot unmarshal string into Go value of type repo.IndexFile

"helm pull oci://harbor.domain.tld/charts/pgo --version 5.3.0" works without issue.

Apologies if I've missed something.

You can not add any oci chart repo because helm pull oci://harbor.domain.tld/charts/pgo ... don't require to add repo.

[ccgurley]

Ahh, thanks! Got everything figured out now.

On 2.7.0 (and previously) we had integration we had https://artifacthub.io pull the index.yaml file. Does the new version generate an index.yaml file from the helm artifacts in a project?

No, the index.yaml file is not available in OCI registry.
