Flux-GitLab-Syncer

Flux-GitLab-Syncer is a tool designed to facilitate the synchronization of GitOps manifests and configurations from GitLab repositories with Kubernetes clusters using Flux. By acting as a bridge between Flux and GitLab, it ensures that the desired state defined in GitLab is consistently reflected in the Kubernetes environment, automating deployments and updates.

Usage

Our deployment of Flux-GitLab-Syncer streamlines the GitOps process, ensuring that applications and configurations stored in GitLab are automatically deployed and updated in our Kubernetes clusters via Flux.
