Deploying a Web-game using Kubernetes, Ingress, ArgoCD and Jenkins

Prerequisites

• Make sure you have a cluster ready on your terminal
• ArgoCD is installed on the cluster

ArgoCD can be installed using the following commands:

• To create a namespace "argocd", execute the following command. However, this step is optional and you can proceed with the "default" namespace as well:
  kubectl create namespace argocd

• Run the install ArgoCD script by executing the following command:
  kubectl apply -n argocd -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-cd/stable/manifests/install.yaml

• Install the CLI using brew to use argocd commands:
  brew install argocd

• To retrieve the password, execute the following command:
  kubectl -n argocd get secret argocd-initial-admin-secret -o jsonpath="{.data.password}" | base64 -d; echo

• To access ArgoCD on a browser, forward the port to 8080 by executing the following command:
  kubectl port-forward svc/argocd-server -n argocd 8080:443

Deployment through YAML configuration

• create application.yaml which will have our argo-cd configuration

    apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
    kind: Application
    metadata:
      name: webgame-argo-application
      namespace: argocd
    spec:
      project: default

      source:
        repoURL: https://github.com/YashPimple/Project-4
        targetRevision: HEAD
        path: Manifests
      destination: 
        server: https://kubernetes.default.svc
        namespace: web-game

      syncPolicy:
        syncOptions:
        - CreateNamespace=true

        automated:
          selfHeal: true
          prune: true

• apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1 and kind: Application indicate that this is an ArgoCD Application resource.
• metadata section defines the metadata for the ArgoCD Application, including the name and namespace.
• spec section describes the specification of the application.
• project field specifies the name of the ArgoCD project in which the application will be created.
• source field specifies the source code repository from which the application will be deployed, including the repository URL, target revision, and path of the deployment manifests.
• destination field specifies the destination Kubernetes cluster and namespace where the application will be deployed.
• syncPolicy field specifies how the application will be synchronized, including sync options such as creating a new namespace, and automated policies such as self-healing and pruning.

In summary, this ArgoCD configuration file defines an application named "webgame-argo-application" that will be deployed to the "web-game" namespace in a Kubernetes cluster from the specified GitHub repository using ArgoCD. The file also defines the synchronization policy for the application to ensure that it remains in a desired state.

Apply the Kubernetes resource manifests kubectl apply -f application.yaml i am been using Port 8081 to accessed by argocd

Also our web-game application is been Deployed on port 3031 🎉, alongside you can also do this through the UI 🚀
