I have a scenario where I want to create an argoCD application – Nginx-ingress – using it official helm chart. But in the valueFiles field, I want to source from my own private repository. This is what I’ve tried
apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
name: nginx-ingress-app
namespace: argocd
spec:
project: default
source:
repoURL: 'https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx'
targetRevision: main
chart: ingress-nginx
helm:
releaseName: nginx-ingress
valueFiles:
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/<org>/<repo>/main/helm-charts/nginx-ingress/values.yaml
destination:
server: 'https://kubernetes.default.svc'
namespace: nginx-ingress
syncPolicy:
automated:
prune: true
selfHeal: true
syncOptions:
- CreateNamespace=true
but this gives 404 error. probably due to access issue. But I have added that repo to argocd.
How can I do that. Thank you all
Both repositories should be in the sources, and then by $values, we try to select the values for the chart:
apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
name: nginx-ingress-app
namespace: argocd
spec:
project: default
sources:
- repoURL: 'https://kubernetes.github.io/ingress-nginx'
targetRevision: main
chart: ingress-nginx
helm:
releaseName: nginx-ingress
valueFiles:
- $values/charts/nginx-ingress/values.yaml # $values is the root of value files repository
- repoURL: 'https://github.com/<org>/<repo>'
targetRevision: main # replaced with the branch
ref: values # The reference to be used above
destination:
server: 'https://kubernetes.default.svc'
namespace: nginx-ingress
syncPolicy:
automated:
prune: true
selfHeal: true
syncOptions:
- CreateNamespace=true
This is called Multiple Sources for an Application.
For the permission part, if you can git clone the repository, it is enough. To do so, you need github ssh authentication.
