argo-cd VS werf

The code above will create the argocd Kubernetes namespace and deploy the latest stable manifest. If you would like to install a specific manifest, have a look here.

In this blog post, we will demonstrate how easy and fast it is to deploy Sveltos on an RKE2 cluster with the help of ArgoCD, register two RKE2 Cluster API (CAPI) clusters and create a ClusterProfile to deploy Prometheus and Grafana Helm charts down the managed CAPI clusters.

Argo CD

This is cool - I can think of some projects that are amazing as first contributors, and others I can think of that are terrible.

One thing I think the tool doesn't address is why someone should contribute to a particular project. Having stars is interesting, and a proxy for at least historical activity, but also kind of useless here - take argoproj/argo-cd [1] as an example - 14.5k stars, with a backlog of 2.7k issues and an issue tracker that's a real mess.

Either way, I think this tool is neat for trying to gain some experience in a project purely based on language.

In our case, our team went ahead with Solution B, as that was the only solution present when the issue occurred. However, with the release of Argo CD 2.8.0 (released on August 7, 2023), things have changed - for the better :). Now, there are two ways to handle the sharding issue with the Argo CD Application Controller:

$ kubectl create namespace argocd //Next, let's apply the yaml configuration files for ArgoCd $ kubectl apply -n argocd -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-cd/stable/manifests/install.yaml //Now we can view the pods created in the ArgoCD namespace. $ kubectl get pods -n argocd //To interact with the API Server we need to deploy the CLI: $ curl --silent --location -o /usr/local/bin/argocd https://github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/releases/download/v2.4.7/argocd-linux-amd64 $ chmod +x /usr/local/bin/argocd //Expose argocd-server $ kubectl patch svc argocd-server -n argocd -p '{"spec": {"type": "LoadBalancer"}}' //Wait about 2 minutes for the LoadBalancer creation $ kubectl get svc -n argocd //Get pasword and decode it. $ kubectl get secret argocd-initial-admin-secret -n argocd -o yaml $ echo WXVpLUg2LWxoWjRkSHFmSA== | base64 --decode

From here, we can explore other developments and tutorials on Kubernetes, such as o11y or observability (PLG, ELK, ELF, TICK, Jaeger, Pyroscope), service mesh (Linkerd, Istio, NSM, Consul Connect, Cillium), and progressive delivery (ArgoCD, FluxCD, Spinnaker).

lol! Wham! Third choice! https://github.com/argoproj/argo-cd

If you mean for each app, I don't think it's listed anywhere though you may find it in `repo-server` logs. Like so

I am looking as well for this kind of tool. I just took a look today by exploring the CNCF landscape this tool : https://werf.io/ , I haven't used it, but it seems to take care of painful stuff like automatic versioning for example. (If someone here tried it, I will be happy to listen to your feedbacks)

Check out https://werf.io/ tool. It features giterminism which is somewhat similar to gitops, but it does not require pull model. Giterminism aims to improve reproducibility of your build and deploy configuration. werf also features content-based-tagging out of the box, which allows creating immutable images, stored in the container-registry, shared between multiple runners (werf uses distributed locking to prevent overriding image which is already published). Giterminism and content-based-tagging enables easy rollbacks to any git-commit in the history of your project. By design werf could be embedded into any ci/cd system.

Rename of dapp to werf was in Jan'19 to be precise (https://github.com/werf/werf/pull/1213).

Werf

You can try werf, it has Helm under the hood and there are github actions available for it: https://github.com/werf/actions

As you know, there's plenty of tools that can be used to build your Docker images, besides the docker build itself. werf is an Open Source project with a long history (started in 2016 as a simple wrapper around Docker CLI). Still being a CLI tool, today it is focused not just on the building but also delivering these images to Kubernetes — and this is what makes it really different.
