Argo Server

alpha

v2.5 and after

The Argo Server is a server that exposes an API and UI for workflows. You'll need to use this if you want to offload large workflows or the workflow archive.

You can run this in either "hosted" or "local" mode.

It replaces the Argo UI.

Hosted Mode

Use this mode if:

  • You want a drop-in replacement for the Argo UI.
  • If you need to prevent users from directly accessing the database.

Hosted mode is provided as part of the standard manifests, specifically in argo-server-deployment.yaml .

Local Mode

Use this mode if:

  • You want something that does not require complex set-up.
  • You do not need to run a database.

To run locally:

argo server

This will start a server on port 2746 which you can view at http:https://localhost:2746.

Options

Auth Mode

You can choose which kube config the server uses:

  • "server" - in hosted mode, use the kube config of service account, in local mode, use your local kube config.
  • "client" - requires client to provide their Kubernetes bearer token and use that.
  • "hybrid" - use the client token if provided, fallback to the server token if note.

By default, the server will start with auth mode of "server".

Managed Namespace

See managed namespace.

Base href

If the server is running behind reverse proxy with a subpath different from / (for example, /argo), you can set an alternative subpath with the --base-href flag or the BASE_HREF environment variable.
