Скачать или смотреть Argo CD Config Management Plugin Crash Course [CMP Setup Guide]

In this crash course, Christian Hernandez (GitOps Kingpin at Akuity) shows you how to extend Argo CD with Config Management Plugins (CMPs) — enabling you to use tools like Helmfile, Carvel YTT, or your own custom post-render scripts, all within GitOps workflows.

Whether you need more flexibility than Helm and Kustomize offer or want to streamline post-rendering, this video walks through how CMPs work, how to set one up, and best practices for integrating them with Argo CD.

What you’ll learn:

What Argo CD Config Management Plugins (CMPs) are and when to use them
How to set up a CMP using the sidecar plugin (step-by-step)
The role of init, generate, and discover sections in CMP config
How to mount and register CMPs with the Argo CD repo server
How to pass environment variables and run custom tools post-render
