How ArtifactHub is managing Helm chart channels?

[framctr]

I found that the Crossplane project is just showing its master channel chart in ArtifactHub as described in crossplane/crossplane#5866. This is evident when looking at chart versions, but also when clicking on the install button it is shown only the master channel.

Is there a way to show both master and stable Helm chart channels in ArtifactHub?

PS. for clarity the 2 channels are available at https://charts.crossplane.io/stable and https://charts.crossplane.io/master

Hi @framctr 👋

Artifact Hub doesn't really have a channels concept for Helm charts repositories. However, it's possible for an organization to publish multiple repositories.

The Crossplane organization could:

• Create a Crossplane organization in Artifact Hub and claim the ownership of that repository. At the moment it belongs to the Helm organization, but this is not ideal for a number of reasons (i.e. not being able to claim the verified or official status, or not receiving notifications when something is wrong with the repo).
• Add a second Helm charts repository (i.e. crossplane-stable), to solve the issue you describe.
• Request the official status for this repository, as this helps users when deciding among multiple available options (and with search results positioning as well).

Hope this helps 🙂
