GitOps Reference

This repository contains configuration to demonstrate a kubernetes platform that is managed by GitOps using Flux.

The platform setup guide is here.

Features

The platform is made aware of an application's repository through an out-of-scope onboarding process that results in the creation of:

1. A git repository for the application's source code
2. A read-only SSH deploy key to access the git repository
3. PGP keys for the authors of the application's source code
4. A subdirectory in this repository under the gitops directory

The gitops root directory is watched by a a Flux Kustomization that automatically synchronizes any changes to subdirectories to the platform, including pruning objects that are not declared in the source.

For each subdirectory (i.e.: application), Flux automatically creates:

1. A namespace for the application
2. A Flux GitRepository in the application's namespace that watches for changes in the application's repository
