The needed infrastructure for building Headlamp plugins.

# Flux

The Flux plugin provides a way to visualize Flux (should be installed in your cluster) in Headlamp. Flux is a tool for implementing GitOps and synchronizing Kubernetes clusters with sources of configuration (like Git repositories). It also automates updates to configuration when there is new code to deploy.

This plugin adds a new item (Flux) to the sidebar to give the user an overview of the Flux installation on the cluster.

## Flux Installation

Please refer to the [official installation guide](https://fluxcd.io/flux/installation/) for Flux to learn to install it.

## Plugin Installation in Headlamp for Desktop

Go to the Plugin Catalog, search for the Flux plugin, and click the Install button. Reload the UI (Navigation menu > Reload, or use the notification after installing the plugin) to see the new Flux item in the sidebar.

## Installing the Flux Headlamp plugin in a Headlamp deployment

If you are deploying Headlamp using Helm, you can use the following HelmRelease manifest to install the Flux Headlamp plugin with your Headlamp deployment:
