TLDR: my CICD choice: argo-cd and argo-workflow Since I chose argocd and github action as our CICD pipeline two years ago, I rarely thought about other choices and the reason I made the choices. Recently I leant from several sources that jenkins is still widely used, it arouse my interest on this subject again. I reconsidered my choice and layed out the reasons here for my future references. I didn’t have a good impression with java in my past java projects.

Yesterday I added gitconfig volume and mounted to /root. However today the logs of the workflow shows netrc is mounted to /root as well. They are conflicted. Kubernetes supports projected volume which supports following types. my netrc and gitconfig are in the list. secret downwardAPI configMap serviceAccountToken I made the small tweak to hello world sample workflow. Here is the my demo workflow with projected volumes.

I needed to clone one of my private repositories in one workflow of argo-workflows. I did’t figure a way to mount git artifact into a shared volume at that time. I sought to other options and find https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/issues/1428 and https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2019/mounting-kubernetes-secret-single-file-inside-pod. The comment https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/issues/1428#issuecomment-775911838 gives an example to add user name and password into https url. Upon I checked the logs, I found that user and password are shown in the logs of a workflow.

The journey I worked on a dapr microservice project which need to read a list from a file and do some useful things. Argo-workflow supports loop over a list of items, however one of my steps always got "invalid character 'G' looking for beginning of value" before going to next step in the workflow template. The step is as following: - name: get-deps inputs: parameters: - name: changes script: image: ubuntu:latest command: [bash] #args: ["echo result was: {{inputs.
