Description
What would you like to be added:
A plugin for Headlamp that integrates with PipeCD to display CI/CD pipelines, deployment status, and related insights directly within the Headlamp dashboard.
The plugin would allow users to:
- View PipeCD applications and pipeline states
- Monitor real-time deployment status (running, succeeded, failed)
- Access deployment logs and history (including rollbacks)
- See events such as deployment triggers, failures, and drift detection
- Support multi-project/multi-tenant environments with proper RBAC
Why is this needed:
Currently, users must switch between Headlamp (for Kubernetes management) and PipeCD (for CI/CD visibility). This context switching slows down workflows and reduces operational efficiency.
Integrating PipeCD into Headlamp would provide:
- A unified Kubernetes + CI/CD experience
- Faster debugging and monitoring of deployments
- Better visibility into GitOps workflows within a single interface
This would improve developer and operator productivity, especially in environments where Kubernetes is the central platform for application management.
