Recipe

Recipe: Argo Workflow writer

Generate Argo Workflow manifests from Meridian pipeline definitions and submit them to your cluster with a single command.

Prerequisites

Argo Workflows 3.5+ installed on your cluster
Meridian CLI v2.1.0 or later
kubectl context pointing to the target namespace

Quick start

meridian recipe argo-workflow --pipeline ci-pipeline.yaml --submit

This reads your pipeline definition, renders a full Argo WorkflowTemplate, and submits it directly to the cluster.

Output example

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: WorkflowTemplate
metadata:
  name: meridian-ci
spec:
  entrypoint: build
  templates:
    - name: build
      container:
        image: golang:1.22
        command: [go, build, ./...]

Flags

--pipelinePath to Meridian pipeline YAML

--submitSubmit to cluster after generation

--dry-runPrint manifest without submitting

--namespaceTarget Kubernetes namespace

Tip: Combine with Recipe: Docker build for a complete CI pipeline that builds images and runs tests in Argo.
