I have not yet had the opportunity to test flux extensively. Regarding Argo examples, the Argo team themself maintain such a repo: https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps

Second, when dealing with OCI helm charts, look up the umbrella chart model https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps/blob/master/helm-dependency/README.md. This basically lets you create a helm chat that doesn’t do anything but call your next helm chart as a dependency. I use this with OCI stores helm charts all over the place. Also, in the next ArgoCD release, you should be able to get multiple sources for a sync, but we’ll see when that comes out

argocd app create helm-guestbook --repo https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps.git --path helm-guestbook --dest-server https://kubernetes.default.svc --dest-namespace default

Let’s Fork a sample repo, for example, like this one found here: https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1 kind: Application metadata: name: guestbook namespace: argocd spec: project: default source: repoURL: https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps.git targetRevision: HEAD path: guestbook destination: server: https://kubernetes.default.svc namespace: guestbook

For example if I point to https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps, from the UI, I can see a new repository but no applications

extraObjects: - apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1 kind: Application metadata: name: my-app namespace: argocd spec: project: default source: repoURL: 'https://github.com/argoproj/argocd-example-apps' path: guestbook targetRevision: HEAD destination: server: 'https://kubernetes.default.svc' namespace: test syncPolicy: automated: {} syncOptions: - CreateNamespace=true EOF
