Make it easy to install the NC+OO chart standalone

I tried hard to install the chart manually but I failed miserably. Because you need a really long values-local.yaml in order to succeed. And yet I could watch the NC pod failing the installation, but still it's up and running and I see:

Finally implementing #965 (closed) would solve this, at least it would give us an values-local.yaml that's actually working.

Are you saying values-local.yaml.example doesn't work when you replace the passwords and the hosts?

Yes - I needed multiple iterations until I gave up, so I couldn't track with which versions of values-local.yaml.example I tried though.

Did you try installing main? Or another branch?

Also, just to be sure, did you remove your charts/ dir and run helm dep upgrade before you ran the manual installation? Because your screenshot looks like your Nextcloud couldn't reach the database

Yes I did that.

I just did the following with success:

1. Checked out 1015-update-to-nc-23 (assuming that's the branch you were testing)
2. Copied values-local.yaml.example to values-local.yaml
3. Edited all passwords to be passwords (only alphanumeric characters to be sure no weird yaml formatting issues were introduced)
4. Replaced all files.your.domain with files2.my.domain (files2 so it wouldn't conflict with the already installed files. from Stackspin. I tested on a Stackspin cluster)
5. Replaced all office.your.domain with office2.my.domain (office2 for the same reason)
6. commented out the sociallogin part because I don't need it at present.
7. Removed charts/ dir and ran helm dep update
8. helm install nc-test . -f values-local.yaml

values-local.yaml

This worked:

Right - I tried your values-local.yaml and I can confirm it works, but did your nc-setup-apps job succeed ?

The first few failed, but I guess that's because I didn't do helm install --wait. Then it succeeded.

mentioned in issue #1021 (closed)

I'm giving up - I now recieve a 503 after installation.

My argument is: "Work's on your machine, but not on mine" should be enough to implement a non-biased, reproducible setup in CI, that's why I'd like to do #965 (closed) soon.
