Document bootstrapping Rancher through Fleet #2131

Open weyfonk opened 5 months ago

weyfonk commented 5 months ago

Fleet is mainly used within existing Rancher setups, where Rancher installs Fleet. But users may be interested to know how to use Fleet to install Rancher, to track Rancher with GitOps and take it from there.

A typical use case would be as follows:

  1. Install Fleet
  2. Apply GitRepos pointing to Rancher charts
  3. Have Rancher somehow "adopt" the already installed Fleet release

We need to check whether step 3. actually works out-of-the-box, and to document the process through fleet-docs for users to know what can be done and how.

Sounds like a good demo or blog post.

Updating the repo should update Rancher ;)
