<p>Here is my use case:
We have a customer, where each of their services has to be available on dedicated subdomain. Naming convention should be <code>service-name.customerdomain.com</code>, where <code>service-name</code> is the deployed service and <code>customerdomain.com</code> is the customer domain. When a new service is created, it should be available <strong>automatically</strong>, i.e. once <code>service-name</code> service is deployed into the cluster, it has to be available on <code>service-name.customerdomain.com</code>.</p>

<p>I know, this can be achieved <strong>manually</strong> by following steps:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Add Ingress controller to the cluster </p></li>
<li><p>Create wildcard DNS <code>*.customerdomain.com</code> and point it to the
Ingress controller</p></li>
<li>Map subdomain for each running service. For every existing service from the cluster create a separate section into Ingress resource file <code>ingress.yaml</code>, e.g.</li>
</ol>

<blockquote>
<pre><code>Spec:     
    rules: 
    - host: helloworld.awesome-customer.com 
    http: 
        paths: 
        - path: /* 
        backend: 
            serviceName: helloworld 
            servicePort: 8080 
    - host: nextfineapp.awesome-customer.com 
    http: 
        paths: 
        - path: /* 
        backend: 
            serviceName: nextfineapp 
            servicePort: 8080 
    - [...]
</code></pre>
</blockquote>

<ol start="4">
<li>Add Ingress resource file new <code>-host</code> section for each newly
deployed service</li>
<li>Remove Ingress resource file <code>-host</code> section for each removed
service</li>
</ol>

<p>Basically - I would like to automate steps 4 &amp; 5. I am aware Ingress cannot handle this by itself, however, googling around, it appears that updating <code>ingress.yaml</code> file each time a new service is deployed / an existing one is removed can be achieved via <a href="https://helm.sh/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Helm</a> and its values files.</p>

<p>I would appreciate if a sample solution can be pointed out / described below.</p>

<p>You would generally do this by having a template for the Ingress resource as a part of your base application chart. You can have more than one Ingress object and they will all get muxed at run time to build the routing table for your controller.</p>
