Quickstart
kubectl create namespace argo-rollouts
kubectl apply -n argo-rollouts -f https://github.com/argoproj/argo-rollouts/releases/download/v1.0.0/install.yaml
Notable Features
- New Argo Rollouts UI available in
kubectl argo rollouts dashboard
- Ability to reference existing Deployment workloads instead of inlining a PodTemplate at spec.template
- Richer Prometheus stats and Kubernetes events
- Support for Ambassador as a canary traffic router
- Support canarying using Istio DestinationRule subsets
Upgrade Notes
Installation Manifests
Installation manifests are now attached as GitHub Release artifacts (as opposed to raw files checked into git)
and can be installed with the release download URL. e.g.:
kubectl apply -n argo-rollouts -f https://github.com/argoproj/argo-rollouts/releases/download/v1.0.0/install.yaml
Argo CD OutOfSync status on Rollout v1.0.0 CRDs:
Argo Rollouts v1.0 now vends apiextensions.k8s.io/v1 CustomResourceDefinitions (previously apiextensions.k8s.io/v1beta1). Kubernetes v1 CRDs no longer supports the preservation of unknown fields in objects, and rejects attempts to set spec.preserveUnknownFields: true
(the previous default). In order to support a smooth upgrade from Argo Rollouts v0.10 to v1.0, spec.preserveUnknownFields
is explicitly set to false
in the manifests, despite false
being the default, and only option in v1 CRDs. However this causes diffing tools (such as Argo CD) to report the manifest as OutOfSync (since K8s drops the false field).
More information:
To avoid the Argo CD OutOfSync conditions, you can remove spec.preserveUnknownFields
from the manifests
entirely after upgrading to v1.0.
Alternatively, you can instruct Argo CD to ignore differences using ignoreDifferences in the Application spec:
spec:
ignoreDifferences:
- group: apiextensions.k8s.io
kind: CustomResourceDefinition
jsonPointers:
- /spec/preserveUnknownFields
Deprecation of kubectl argo rollouts promote --skip-current-step
flag
The promote flag --skip-current-step
which skips the current running canary step has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Its logic to skipping the current step has been merged with the existing command:
kubectl argo rollouts promote ROLLOUT
The promote ROLLOUT
command can now be used to handle both the case where the rollout needs to be unpaused, as well as to skip the currently running canary step (e.g. an analysis/experiment/pause step).
