cna-helm-operator

This repository contains an example of a helm operator for ArgoCD. The helm chart in this operator is a forked version of this argo-helm commit.

Configuration and Build Process

Configuration

The helm chart's values.yaml is represented in deploy/crds/cna_v1alpha1_argocd_cr.yaml. Review the file and update the relevant fields.

Deploy the CRD

$ kubectl create -f deploy/crds/cna_v1alpha1_argocd_crd.yaml

Build and run the Operator

Build the helm-operator image and push it to a registry:

$ operator-sdk build quay.io/example/cna-helm-operator:v0.0.1
$ docker push quay.io/example/cna-helm-operator:v0.0.1

Kubernetes deployment manifests are generated in the deploy/operator.yaml file. The deployment image in this file needs to be modified from the placeholder REPLACE_IMAGE to the previous built image. To do this, run:

$ sed -i 's|REPLACE_IMAGE|quay.io/example/cna-helm-operator:v0.0.1|g' deploy/operator.yaml

Deploy the Operator:

$ kubectl create -f deploy/service_account.yaml
$ kubectl create -f deploy/role.yaml
$ kubectl create -f deploy/role_binding.yaml
$ kubectl create -f deploy/operator.yaml
