[Chart] n8n-helm — production-oriented Helm chart for n8n (queue mode, task runners, KEDA/HPA/PDB, S3, CloudPirates Postgres + Valkey)

Hi all :waving_hand:

Sharing n8n-helm, an independent, community-maintained Helm chart for n8n (the fair-code workflow-automation platform). It’s not a fork — a fresh chart built around the operational concerns you hit when running n8n at any
non-trivial scale.

What’s inside (all opt-in):

  • Queue mode with dedicated worker, webhook, and MCP-webhook deployments
  • External task runners (n8nio/runners, including the Python runner) with full overrides
  • Multi-main HA (main.count > 1) for enterprise license holders
  • HPA for main + worker (KEDA-aware) and PodDisruptionBudgets per role
  • S3 binary storage with optional bundled MinIO
  • Postgres TLS via inline base64 certs or existingSecret references
  • ServiceMonitor for main, PodMonitor for workers in queue + Postgres mode
  • values.schema.json shipped with the chart, so --set is validated client-side

Quick start:
helm repo add community-artifacts n8n-helm | a production-oriented Helm chart for n8n
helm repo update
helm install n8n community-artifacts/n8n
