OK, after hours of trial and error it seems that
fleet.yaml
with some boilerplate content like
defaultNamespace: bioapp
is required in
bioapp/influxdb/templates/external-secret.yaml
in order for it to be deployed. I suspect this is because it needs to create a new bundle resource, which I can see in the Rancher Fleet UI. This might seem like common sense to experienced users, but as far as I can tell the concept is not documented anywhere and hugely confusing for noobs like me.
It would be great if a higher-level
fleet.yaml
file could specify paths to lower levels to avoid creating empty
fleet.yaml
files everywhere to structure the repo when combining helm and raw yaml. This way
bioapp/influxdb/fleet.yaml
could use the external helm chart to install influxdb, and at the same time point to more raw yaml resources in the
templates
subdirectory, without needing to make another
fleet.yaml
in that directory
