example-gitops-local

Gitops config for a developing with a local cluster.

Everything your services need to run, deployed to the cluster, but not the services themselves. Run those locally.

The cluster tooling is preconfigured to use host.docker.internal when running in local mode to access your local network.

From your local network you may want to access the Kubernetes network, for that use localizer.

sudo localizer --namespace example-local-env

This will create tunnels, and update your /etc/hosts for accessing those tunnels via the same URL that would be used internally – http://<service-name>.<namespace>.svc.cluster.local, so http://example-hasura.example-local-env.svc.cluster.local for example.

To get started, first log in to GHCR, then apply the gitops config using argocd autopilot.

Private container registry (such as on ghcr.io)?

Log in to your container registry with:

kubectl create ns example-local-env
kubectl -n example-local-env create secret docker-registry ghcr --docker-server=https://ghcr.io --docker-username=<your-github-username> --docker-password=<github_PAT_packages:read> --docker-email=<your-github-email>
kubectl -n example-local-env patch serviceaccount default -p '{"imagePullSecrets": [{"name": "ghcr"}]}'

Apply this config with argocd autopilot

export GIT_REPO=https://github.com/CloudNativeEntrepreneur/example-gitops-local
export GIT_TOKEN=<paste in your github PAT created here: https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?scopes=repo>

argocd-autopilot repo bootstrap --recover
