Running it locally

Pre-requisites

Usage

You need to pull down the two branches you want to compare. The first branch will be cloned into the base-branch folder, and the other branch will be cloned into the target-branch folder.

git clone https://github.com/<owner>/<repo> base-branch --depth 1 -q -b <branch-a>

git clone https://github.com/<owner>/<repo> target-branch --depth 1 -q -b <branch-b>

Then you can run the tool using the following command:

docker run \
  --network host \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -v $(pwd)/output:/output \
  -v $(pwd)/base-branch:/base-branch \
  -v $(pwd)/target-branch:/target-branch \
  -e TARGET_BRANCH=<branch-a> \
  -e BASE_BRANCH=<branch-b> \
  -e REPO=<owner>/<repo>  \
  dagandersen/argocd-diff-preview:v0.0.24

If base-branch(BASE_BRANCH) is not specified it will default to main.
