ArgoCD CLI
Command-line workflows for deploying and managing applications via argocd.
CLI Commands
argocd app list # List all applications and sync status
argocd app get <app> # Show app details, health, and resources
argocd app diff <app> # Preview what would change on sync
argocd app sync <app> # Apply pending changes
argocd app sync apps # Sync the app-of-apps (picks up new Application manifests)Login
Default (Authentik SSO, PKCE, opens browser):
argocd login argocd.ops.eblu.me --ssoBreak-glass admin login (only if Authentik is down):
argocd login argocd.ops.eblu.me \
--username admin \
--password "$(op read 'op://vg6xf6vvfmoh5hqjjhlhbeoaie/srogeebssulhtb6tnqd7ls6qey/password')"Availability
The CLI is installed on both gilbert and ringtail. On ringtail it comes from
the NixOS flake (environment.systemPackages, next to tea); the same
package backs the priv runner’s hostPackages, so re-check CLI/server skew
against service-versions.yaml on each flake bump.
Branch-Testing Workflow
Test changes from a feature branch before merging:
# 1. Point the app at your branch
argocd app set <service> --revision <branch>
# 2. Sync to deploy the branch version
argocd app sync <service>
# 3. Test the changes...
# 4. After merge, reset to main and sync
argocd app set <service> --revision main
argocd app sync <service>
