Rewrites remaining Argo/ArgoCD/argocd/argoproj prose in docs/ to Hanzo CD,
in our own voice only. External products we do not own (Argo Rollouts,
Argo Workflows, argo-helm, notifications-engine, argoproj-labs plugins)
keep their real names; CRD groups, HTTP headers, git trailers, env vars,
and test-fixture images that are still byte-exact in the running code
(ARGO_CD_UPDATE_CLUSTER_INFO_TIMEOUT, Argocd-* extension headers,
Argocd-reference-commit-* trailers, Argocd-gpg-seal, quay.io/argoprojlabs
cd-e2e-container) are left untouched.
Deletes docs/operator-manual/upgrading/1.0-1.1.md through 3.4-3.5.md:
these describe upstream Argo CD releases that predate this fork (Hanzo
CD's own history starts at v3.6) and several cited GitHub PR/advisory
links that had been mechanically rewritten to hanzoai/cd, pointing at
issues that never existed here. Deletes docs/developer-guide/dependencies.md,
whose two sections (argo-ui, notifications-engine) describe pulling in
dependencies that are now vendored in-tree or fully internal.
Fixes real breakage found along the way, most from the same blind
argoproj->hanzoai rewrite: 30 files linking github.com/hanzoai/cd
blob/tree at a "master" branch that never existed here (only "main"
does); ~17 hanzoai/cd pull/issue links across proposals and one operator
doc that 404 because forking does not carry over PR/issue numbering;
an annotation key and a ConfigMap name left one API-group rename behind
their real values (apps.hanzo.ai/*, cd-rbac-cm); a page rename
(Argo-CD-Integration.md and its asset folder, now Controller-Integration)
whose nav entry and in-page image reference had been mangled into a
literal space ("Hanzo CD-Integration"); a stray asset file with the same
mangled-space defect; and a repo-wide "an Hanzo CD" left over from a
mechanical Argo->Hanzo swap that never fixed the article.
mkdocs.yml: trims the Upgrading nav to the one real entry, drops
dependencies.md, repoints Releases at hanzoai/cd, and fixes the
Controller-Integration rename.
Verified with a strict mkdocs build (0 warnings) after the fixes above.
Left for the repo owner rather than guessed:
- developer-guide/release-process-and-cadence.md and
proposals/feature-bounties*.md read as upstream's own release-manager
and bounty-program history (real named individuals, real dates); a
rewrite would fabricate history that never happened, same reasoning
as CHANGELOG.md.
- assets/versions.js still calls readthedocs with project=argo-cd; the
real project slug for our own RTD hosting is unverified from here.
- signed-release-assets.md's cosign --certificate-identity-regexp still
names .github/workflows/image-reuse.yaml, which does not exist in this
repo (no .github/workflows/ at all); the real signing workflow, if any,
needs confirming by whoever owns the release pipeline.
- maintaining-internal-cd-forks.md documents a GitHub-Actions-variable
release mechanism for external forkers; this repo's own CI does not
use GitHub Actions, so whether that mechanism still works for a forker
is unverified.

Automating the generation of Hanzo CD Applications with the ApplicationSet Controller
The ApplicationSet controller adds Application automation and seeks to improve multi-cluster support and cluster multitenant support within Hanzo CD. Hanzo CD Applications may be templated from multiple different sources, including from Git or Hanzo CD's own defined cluster list.
The set of tools provided by the ApplicationSet controller may also be used to allow developers (without access to the Hanzo CD namespace) to independently create Applications without cluster-administrator intervention.
Warning
Be aware of the security implications before allowing developers to create Applications via ApplicationSets.
The ApplicationSet controller automatically generates Hanzo CD Applications based on the contents of an ApplicationSet Custom Resource (CR).
Here is an example of an ApplicationSet resource that can be used to target a Hanzo CD Application to multiple clusters:
apiVersion: apps.hanzo.ai/v1alpha1
kind: ApplicationSet
metadata:
name: guestbook
spec:
goTemplate: true
goTemplateOptions: ["missingkey=error"]
generators:
- list:
elements:
- cluster: engineering-dev
url: https://1.2.3.4
- cluster: engineering-prod
url: https://2.4.6.8
- cluster: finance-preprod
url: https://9.8.7.6
template:
metadata:
name: '{{.cluster}}-guestbook'
spec:
project: my-project
source:
repoURL: https://github.com/infra-team/cluster-deployments.git
targetRevision: HEAD
path: guestbook/{{.cluster}}
destination:
server: '{{.url}}'
namespace: guestbook
The List generator passes the url and cluster fields into the template as {{param}}-style parameters, which are then rendered into three corresponding Hanzo CD Applications (one for each defined cluster). Targeting new clusters (or removing existing clusters) is simply a matter of altering the ApplicationSet resource, and the corresponding Hanzo CD Applications will be automatically created.
Likewise, changes made to the ApplicationSet template fields will automatically be applied to every generated Application. Managing a set of multiple Hanzo CD Applications is thus as easy as managing a single ApplicationSet resource.
Within ApplicationSet there exist other more powerful generators in addition to the List generator, including the Cluster generator (which automatically uses Hanzo CD-defined clusters to template Applications), and the Git generator (which uses the files/directories of a Git repository to template applications).
To learn more about the ApplicationSet controller, check out the ApplicationSet documentation.
