atlantis VS argo-cd

None of these are a replacement of Terraform Cloud (recently rebranded to HCP Terraform). For example, when you create a PR, it could affect multiple workspaces. The new experimental version of TFC/TFE (I refuse to call it HCP!) implements Stacks, which is something like a workflow, and links one workspace output to other workspace inputs. None of the open-source solutions, including the paid Digger [0], support this - only the paid one, such as Spacelift [1] (which is the closest to TFC if you ask me). Having a monorepo of Terraform is a common design pattern, so, if I change an embedded module, it could trigger changes it many workspaces. As far as I know, Atlantis [2] can't really help in this case.

By the way, the reason I singled-out Spacelift is due to its quality, and the great Terraform provider it has. Scalr [3], for example, has a really low-quality Terraform provider. I extensively use the hashicorp/tfe provider to manage TFC itself.

Atlantis is a pull request automation tool that works well with plain Terraform right away. But what if we're already using Terramate to generate Terraform code?

Atlantis automates reviewing and deploying Terraform via pull requests, streamlining collaboration and ensuring consistency across Terraform deployments.

For example, Atlantisgo for Terraform, Zapier’s Kubechecks for Argo CD, Quizlet’s GitHub action all do something similar to this. But a generic, extensible tool for IaC providers doesn’t seem to exist. Additionally, many of them require exposing your Kubernetes cluster or other infrastructure to third-party access, webhooks, etc.

Our first attempt was to introduce other engineering teams to Terraform - the Platform team was already using it extensively with Terragrunt, and using Atlantis to automate plan and apply operations in a Git flow to ensure infrastructure was consistent. We'd written modules, with documentation, and an engineer would simply need to raise a PR to use the module and provide the right values, and Atlantis (once the PR was approved by Platform) would go ahead and set it up for them.

Alternatively, you can look at solutions like Atlantis or spacelift.

Looking at the commits at https://github.com/runatlantis/atlantis, it looks like 1.6.5. Am I right?

We use Atlantis [0] for CI/CD automation of Terraform pull requests to a centralized repository. It's pretty good too, especially for a self-hosted solution. I can't see how Terraform Cloud's costs would be justifiable for us without a custom contract.

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

$version = (Invoke-RestMethod https://api.github.com/repos/argoproj/argo-cd/releases/latest).tag_name Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/releases/download/$version/argocd-windows-amd64.exe" -OutFile "argocd.exe"

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
