Deploy on Local cluster

1. Cluster management

• deploy the local cluster

  bash local_cluster.sh deploy
  

• destroy local cluster

  bash local_cluster.sh destroy
  

2. Configure ArgoCD

• Deploy ArgoCD on the cluster

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

• check pods in the ns

  kubectl get pods -n argocd
  

• Before getting to accessing the argocd UI, let's copy the password. User name is admin

  kubectl -n argocd get secret argocd-initial-admin-secret -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d && echo
  

• port forward the argocd service to a 8443 host port. Note: you can use NodePort, or Ingress as well to access the UI aswell.

  kubectl port-forward -n argocd service/argocd-server 8443:443
  

  Configure you application or you can use a yaml manifest as well. You have to be on the argo namespace -

  sudo kubectl config set-context --current --namespace=argocd
  

  apply - kubectl create -f joke_application.yaml
