ArgoCD Tekton Reference Implementation

A reference implementation for using ArgoCD and Tekton together to implement gitops and deployment pipelines.

Documentation

Quick Setup

If you have done this sort of thing before and are using OpenShift, these instructions will get you up and running quickly. The Getting Started Tutorial includes alternate setup instructions that use graphical interfaces.

  1. Install the OpenShift GitOps Operator and grant it RBAC permissions to install the remaining resources.
    • oc create -k bootstrap/
  2. Wait for the operator to start ArgoCD. This may take a few minutes. You can monitor progress by looking at the Pods in the openshift-gitops project.
  3. Install the "everything" ArgoCD Application.
    • oc create -f argo-cd-apps/app-of-apps/everything.yml
  4. Fork the example application on GitHub.
  5. Configure your fork in GitHub to start your Pipeline when the Application source code canges.
    • Settings -> Webhooks -> Add Webhook.
    • Payload URL - Enter the URL for the "easymode" EventListener Route that Tekton is listening on. You can get the correct value with oc get route -n pipelines-easymode -o wide.
    • Content Type - application/json
    • SSL verification - If your OpenShift cluster is using TLS certificates that GitHub does not trust, you will have to select SSL verification -> Disable. To avoid this when using github.com, you have to configure OpenShift with TLS certs signed by a well known certificate authority.
  6. Watch the pipeline run!
    • In the OpenShift console, Pipelines (left navigation) -> Pipelines

How to Trigger an ArgoCD Sync when your GitOps Repo Changes

Fork of this git repository navigate to Settings -> Webhooks -> Add Webhook.

  • Payload URL - Enter the ArgoCD webhook URL for your cluster. This is NOT the Tekton EventListener webhook URL. You can get the first part of the value with echo "https://$(oc get route openshift-gitops-server -n openshift-gitops -o jsonpath --template='{.spec.host}')/api/webhook". The URL will look like https://openshift-gitops-server-openshift-gitops.[your.cluster.com]/api/webhook
  • Content Type - application/json
  • SSL verification - If your OpenShift cluster is using TLS certificates that GitHub does not trust, you will have to select SSL verification -> Disable. To avoid this when using github.com, you have to configure OpenShift with TLS certs signed by a well known certificate authority.

Example Pipelines

The quickstart includes several examples of pipelines. Each one is in a directory under components/pipelines-as-a-service/.

  • easy-mode - Start here. It demonstrates the basics and works great for non-production proof of concepts, including demonstrations of onboarding new workloads.
  • minimal - Implements the Ploigos "minimal" standard workflow. test
