<p>I would like to be able to reference the current namespace in <code>values.yaml</code> to use it to suffix some values like this</p>

<pre><code># in values.yaml
someParam: someval-{{ .Release.Namespace }}
</code></pre>

<p>It much nicer to define it this way instead of going into all my templates and adding <code>{{ .Release.Namespace }}</code>. If I can do it in <code>values.yaml</code> it's much clearer and only needs to be defined in one place.</p>

<p>Just to clarify:</p>

<p>As described by community: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/57641009/11207414">Amit Kumar Gupta</a> and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/57641142/11207414">David Maze</a> there is no good solution natively supported by <a href="https://helm.sh/docs/chart_best_practices/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">helm</a> in order to change this behavior without modifying templates.
It looks that in your case (without modifying helm templates) the best solution it will be just using <strong>set</strong> with parameters during helm install.</p>

<p>like:</p>

<pre><code>helm install --set foo=bar --set foo=newbar ./redis
</code></pre>
