CDK Helm construct fails because of CF output size

[flavioschuindt]

Hi,

I am using the CDK Helm construct to deploy a chart that contains multiple components:

const myVpc = ec2.Vpc.fromVpcAttributes(this, "iVPC", {
      vpcId: vpcID,
      availabilityZones: ['us-east-1a']
    });

const layer = new KubectlLayer(this, "KubectlLayer");

const cluster = eks.Cluster.fromClusterAttributes(this, "iCluster", {
      vpc: myVpc,
      clusterName: clusterName,
      kubectlRoleArn: kubectlRoleArn,
      kubectlLayer: layer,
});

// apply helm chart
const mychart = cluster.addHelmChart('MyChart', {
      chartAsset: chartAsset,
      namespace: 'my-namespace',
      values: values,
});

I am getting the following error:

{
    "log": "MyDeployStack | 19/13 | 6:28:41 PM | CREATE_FAILED        | Custom::AWSCDK-EKS-HelmChart          | iCluster/chart-MyOCIChart/Resource/Default (iClusterchartMyOCIChartEB80B61E) Response object is too long."
}

Correct if I am wrong, but I believe the issue is related to all the content from the helm install output being passed to the CF output synthesized by CDK, and CF limits it to 4096 bytes. I tried to see the output from helm install when I tried it outside of CDK (manual helm install), and it is about 2MB, which of course is more than the 4096 bytes limit. I couldn't find any option in the Helm Construct to suppress the output. Not even Helm itself has any option like this. Last, this chart comes externally from another team, so I don't have a way to manage it inside the chart.

I am facing the same issue here, any updates on this?
