promotionFlow-demo.yml

# PromotionFlow Configuration
# This Custom Resource Definition (CRD) orchestrates the promotion of applications across multiple environments in Codefresh.
# Triggering starts from a designated "trigger environment," indicated by a commit message formatted as "[promotion:{promotionFlow-name}]", e.g., "[promotion:demo]".
# The `postTrigger` defines an Argo Workflow that is executed post-update, used primarily for validation or testing.
# The `steps` list outlines the stages of promotion, with detailed configuration provided for the first environment as an example.
