Argo-cd: Migrate argocd to another k8s cluster

[josericardomcastro]

Hi guys!

I need some help, i have to migrate my Argocd to another cluster kubernetes.

Is there any easy way to do this? I want to export all the configurations (repositories, clusters, projects and applications) and import into another place, another argocd.

Anyone? Thanks!

@josericardomcastro, I haven't tried this, but it should be possible to do something like:

kubectl get cm --export -o yaml >> backup.yaml
kubectl get secrets --export -o yaml >> backup.yaml
kubectl get app --export -o yaml >> backup.yaml
kubectl get appproj --export -o yaml >> backup.yaml

And then run kubectl create -f backup.yaml

Some extra massaging of backup.yaml would be needed if you also need to change the namespace.

Thanks to stalebot for reminding about it. The argocd-util binary now supports import and export commands which we use to backup/restore the state. We only need to document it
