Chapter 2. Enabling the Argo CD plugin
You can use the Argo CD plugin to visualize the Continuous Delivery (CD) workflows in OpenShift GitOps. This plugin provides a visual overview of the application’s status, deployment details, commit message, author of the commit, container image promoted to environment and deployment history.
Prerequisites
Add Argo CD instance information to your
app-config.yaml
configmap as shown in the following example:argocd: appLocatorMethods: - type: 'config' instances: - name: argoInstance1 url: https://argoInstance1.com username: ${ARGOCD_USERNAME} password: ${ARGOCD_PASSWORD} - name: argoInstance2 url: https://argoInstance2.com username: ${ARGOCD_USERNAME} password: ${ARGOCD_PASSWORD}
Add the following annotation to the entity’s
catalog-info.yaml
file to identify the Argo CD applications.annotations: ... # The label that Argo CD uses to fetch all the applications. The format to be used is label.key=label.value. For example, rht-gitops.com/janus-argocd=quarkus-app. argocd/app-selector: '${ARGOCD_LABEL_SELECTOR}'
(Optional) Add the following annotation to the entity’s
catalog-info.yaml
file to switch between Argo CD instances as shown in the following example:annotations: ... # The Argo CD instance name used in `app-config.yaml`. argocd/instance-name: '${ARGOCD_INSTANCE}'
NoteIf you do not set this annotation, the Argo CD plugin defaults to the first Argo CD instance configured in
app-config.yaml
.
