ArgoCD Setup

This repository contains an interactive bash script for setting up ArgoCD on a Kubernetes cluster. The script provides a menu-driven interface to perform various ArgoCD setup tasks individually or in sequence.

Features

The script offers the following operations:

1. Install ArgoCD
2. Get ArgoCD secret (admin password)
3. Set up port-forwarding
4. Add load balancer

Prerequisites

• A Kubernetes cluster
• kubectl installed and configured to work with your cluster
• Necessary permissions to create resources in your cluster

Usage

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/code4mk/argocd-setup.git
   cd argocd-setup
   

2. Make the script executable:

   chmod +x setup.sh
   

3. Run the script:

   ./setup.sh
   

4. Follow the on-screen menu to perform desired operations.

Menu Options

• Install ArgoCD: Creates a namespace for ArgoCD and installs it using the official manifest.
• Get ArgoCD Secret: Retrieves and decodes the initial admin password for ArgoCD.
• Set up Port-Forwarding: Establishes port-forwarding to access the ArgoCD UI locally.
• Add Load Balancer: Patches the ArgoCD server service to use a LoadBalancer for external access.

Notes

• The script assumes you have the necessary permissions in your Kubernetes cluster.
• Port-forwarding (option 3) will run in the background. Press Enter to stop it when you're done.
• After adding a load balancer (option 4), it may take a few minutes for an external IP to be assigned.
