Prepare Shell Variables

Section titled “Prepare Shell Variables”

Ensure you have defined and loaded your Global Shell Variables as described in Shell Variables.

  1. Connect to 🟥 Production Workload Kubernetes Cluster ; i.e w/ Kubeconfig File

    Ensure you have defined and loaded your Global Shell Variables as described in Shell Variables.

    Terminal window
    source $HOME/opstella-installation/shell-values/kubernetes/prod_cluster.vars.sh
    Terminal window
    export KUBECONFIG="$HOME/opstella-installation/kubeconfigs/prod_cluster.yaml"

  2. Create Kubernetes Secret for 🛡️ TLS Certificate for ArgoCD (Production) in Namespace devsecops-system.

    Create one using from .crt and .key file.

    Terminal window
    kubectl create secret tls $K8S_INGRESS_TLS_CERTIFICATE_SECRET_NAME \
      --cert=/path/to/cert/file --key=/path/to/key/file \
      --namespace devsecops-system

    💡 Should return secret/wildcard-...-tls created message.

Section titled “Pre-Installation”

Prepare ArgoCD (Production) Configurations

Section titled “Prepare ArgoCD (Production) Configurations”

  1. Specify OIDC Authentication Information

    Using Opstella Keycloak Information

    • OIDC Issuer Endpoint from Opstella Keycloak Information

      export OIDC_ISSUER_ENDPOINT="https://${KEYCLOAK_DOMAIN}/realms/${KEYCLOAK_REALM}"

  2. Create Helm Values Configurations

    Terminal window
    cat <<EOF > $HOME/opstella-installation/helm-values/argocd-prod-full-values.yaml
