argocd-deploy

Declarative ArgoCD manifest and applications to apply to Kubernetes cluster upon provisioning. This is a starter/example we can use to implement CD to Kubernetes clusters we provision.

Usage:

1. Fork this repo.

2. Create a namespace for argocd, then bootstrap ArgoCD (v1.0.2) install using:

   kubectl create namespace argocd
   kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v1.0.2/manifests/install.yaml -n argocd

   (In openshift, you can replace kubectl with oc)

3. In your fork, update repoURL in bootstrap/argocd-application.yaml, and targetRevision to indicate which branch to watch (master in our case), which will have argocd sync up itself using this repo, then add the Application CustomResource to the cluster.

   kubectl apply -f bootstrap/argocd-application.yaml -n argocd

4. In your fork of the application, you can add additional applications for Argo to sync. Argo recommends the application of applications pattern which allows us to use this repo to add and remove apps in in other git repos.

   We have included the example liberty-hello-world-openshift-deploy application in the bases directory, which will synchronize hello-world and deploy it to an openshift cluster. You can remove or modify this for your own application. Any Kubernetes resources added to bases will be synchronized to the cluster where ArgoCD is deployed; we recommend adding additional Application resources where the actual definitions are in other git repositories that are updated at the end of CI pipelines.
