  cmp:
    create: true

Define plugins

repoServer:
  extraContainers:
    - name: helmwave-plugin
      command: [ /var/run/argocd/argocd-cmp-server ]
      args: [ --loglevel, debug ]
      image: ghcr.io/helmwave/helmwave:0.41.4

Since v0.40.0 you can use special gitops image

  cmp:
    plugins:

          args:
            - |
