# Platform Apps - a catalogue of apps for Flux CD
This repository has the **specification** of Flux CD resources for different apps.
The *apps* directory contains sub directories with Flux CD Helm releases, charts and opinionated chart values.
## Development practices
- Test on feature branch in your sandbox.
- Raise a Pull Request to main branch
- Test main branch in QA.
- If successful in QA, create a tag and release from main branch using semantic versioning, like v1.2.3
- Minor and patch releases get automatic rollout to staging.
- Patch releases get automatic rollout to prod and standby.
- Major releases are rolled out manually through pull requests.

Look at [RELEASE.md](RELEASE.md) for the full process flow, rollback option and timeline.
## Usage
In order to implement the resources in this repository you need the following on your **implementation** side:
- kustomization.yaml
### platform-apps.yaml example
```yaml
---
apiVersion: source.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1
kind: GitRepository
metadata:
name: platform-apps-git
namespace: flux-system
spec:
interval: 1m0s
ref:
branch: main
url: https://github.com/dfds/platform-apps
```
### kustomization.yaml example
This is a standard k8s Kustomization resource where we reference the specific app we want to install with Flux.
This will contain a link to the specific app under the apps folder; in this example *traefik*.
Optionally it can also contain a **patches** section that includes inline YAML, if we want to patch any of the Helm chart values.
```yaml
----
apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization
resources:
- https://github.com/dfds/platform-apps/apps/traefik-blue-variant
```
### Terraform
In our setup we use the the Terraform module to generate the kustomization.yaml files.
