GitHub Repositories

When you deploy a cluster on Vultr using kubefirst, new repositories will be added to your organization's GitHub account.

Repositories

gitops

The gitops repository houses all of our IAC and all your GitOps configurations. The infrastructure created by kubefirst was produced by some combination of Terraform and Argo CD. You modify the infrastructure or add new applications to your cluster by creating a pull request to your new gitops repository.

metaphor

metaphor is a suite of demo microservice applications to demonstrate how an application can be integrated into the kubefirst platform following best practices. It is described in more details here.

Repositories Management

These repositories are being managed in Terraform. As you need additional GitHub repositories, just add a new section of Terraform code to vultr-github/terraform/github/repos.tf:

Making Terraform Changes

To make infrastructure and configuration changes with Terraform, simply open a pull request against any of the Terraform directory folders in the gitops repository. Your pull request will automatically provide plans, state locks, and applies, and even comment in the merge request itself. You'll have a simple, peer reviewable, auditable changelog of all infrastructure and configuration changes.

GitLab

GitLab Repositories

When you install the Vultr version of kubefirst, 2 new repositories will be added to your GitLab project as shown here.

GitLab Repository Management

These GitLab projects (repositories) are being managed in Terraform. As you need additional GitLab projects, just add a new section of Terraform code to vultr-gitlab/terraform/gitlab/projects.tf:

module "your_repo_name" {
  source       = "./modules/project"
  group_name   = data.gitlab_group.owner.id
  project_name = "your_repo_name"
  # create_ecr                            = true
  initialize_with_readme                = false
  only_allow_merge_if_pipeline_succeeds = false
  remove_source_branch_after_merge      = true
}
