Celsius to Fahrenheit Conversion Web App - GitOps Implementation

Overview

This repository demonstrates an advanced GitOps workflow using GitHub Actions, ArgoCD, Terraform, and AWS EKS for a Python Flask application that converts temperatures from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

Repository Structure

  • .github/workflows: Contains GitHub Actions workflows, automating CI/CD pipelines.
  • argocd: Includes ArgoCD manifests for continuous deployment and application configuration.
  • eks_cluster: Terraform files for AWS EKS cluster setup, defining infrastructure as code.
  • k8s_manifest: Kubernetes manifests for application deployment and management.
  • tf_state_management: Manages Terraform state, essential for infrastructure tracking and versioning.
  • Dockerfile: Container configuration for the Flask app.
  • argocd_manifest.yaml: ArgoCD application manifest for Kubernetes deployment.
  • celsius-to-fahrenheit.py: Python application script.
  • requirements.txt: Python dependencies.

GitHub Actions Workflows

The workflows in .github/workflows automate the continuous integration and deployment processes, including testing, building, and deploying the application. These workflows ensure that each change in the repository is automatically and reliably reflected in the deployed application.

Terraform Infrastructure as Code

The eks_cluster and tf_state_management directories contain Terraform files for defining and managing the AWS EKS cluster infrastructure. These files allow for reproducible infrastructure setup and easy management of cloud resources.

ArgoCD for Continuous Deployment

ArgoCD manifests in the argocd directory facilitate the GitOps approach for continuous deployment. They link the Kubernetes resources with the repository, ensuring that changes in the repository are automatically deployed to the Kubernetes cluster.

Local Setup and Running

Create and Activate a Python Virtual Environment:

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

Install Dependencies:

pip install -U pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

Start the Flask Server:

python main.py

The app will be running on http://127.0.0.1:8080/

Important Notes

This application is for development and testing purposes. Do not use the development server in a production environment.
