busybox.image.*

Busybox container image configuration. Busybox is used for lightweight init containers and utility operations during pod initialization.
busybox.image.host
string
default:""
Container registry hosting the Busybox image.Default: "" (empty) - Automatically uses global.imageRegistry valueFallback Behavior:When busybox.image.host is empty or not set, the chart uses global.imageRegistry via the crewai-platform.busyboxImageRegistry template helper.Automatic Image Override:The chart automatically sets the BUSYBOX_IMAGE_OVERRIDE environment variable by combining these values:
Where <registry> is determined by: busybox.image.host OR global.imageRegistry (fallback)When imageNamePrefixOverride is Set:The image name is automatically simplified:
  • Original: proxy/crewai/dockerhub/library/busybox
  • With imageNamePrefixOverride: "crewai/" becomes: crewai/busybox
See global.imageNamePrefixOverride for details.
busybox.image.name
string
default:"proxy/crewai/dockerhub/library/busybox"
Busybox container image name.Default: "proxy/crewai/dockerhub/library/busybox" - Matches Replicated proxy path structurePath Transformation:When global.imageNamePrefixOverride is set, only the final component (busybox) is used with the override prefix.
busybox.image.tag
string
default:"1.36"
Busybox image version tag.Default: "1.36" (pinned to a known-good version with SSL support)Important: The chart requires a BusyBox variant with SSL/TLS support for the ESO wait Job, which uses HTTPS to call the in-cluster Kubernetes API. Some minimal BusyBox variants (like latest on certain registries) ship without OpenSSL and cause the wait Job to fail with SSL not available.Version Selection:
  • Use "1.36" or newer (recommended) — includes OpenSSL for HTTPS
  • Avoid "latest" — may pull a minimal variant without SSL
  • Alternative: "stable" — tracks the latest stable release with SSL
Error Indicator: If you see wget: SSL not available in the wait Job logs, your BusyBox image lacks SSL support. Pin to "1.36" or later.Example:
busybox.image.pullPolicy
string
default:"IfNotPresent"
Image pull policy for BusyBox container.Default: "IfNotPresent" - Pull only if not cached locallyValid Values:
  • "IfNotPresent" - Pull only if the image is not present (recommended)
  • "Always" - Always pull the latest version of the tag
  • "Never" - Never pull, use cached image only
Example:

Usage

Busybox is used for:
  • Init containers waiting for service dependencies
  • Lightweight file operations during pod startup
  • Network connectivity checks
  • Basic shell operations in utility containers
  • ESO wait job - verifies External Secrets Operator has synced all required secrets before pre-upgrade migrations run (only when externalSecret.enabled: true and externalSecret.manageAutoGenerated: true)

Example Configuration

Default Configuration (using Replicated proxy):
Results in: images.crewai.com/proxy/crewai/dockerhub/library/busybox:latest Private Registry with imageNamePrefixOverride:
Results in: 123456789012.dkr.ecr.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/crewai/busybox:latest Custom Registry:
Results in: harbor.company.com/library/busybox:latest

Automatic Configuration

The Busybox image configuration automatically:
  • Uses global.imageRegistry when busybox.image.host is not set
  • Applies global.imageNamePrefixOverride for simplified image paths
  • Sets the BUSYBOX_IMAGE_OVERRIDE environment variable for application use
