Git Events Runner is a Kubernetes operator to trigger Jobs with the Git repository content in the job's container. In other words it provides way to run code inside a Kubernetes cluster based on content of the Git repository commit in response to changes in the repository or triggered by a webhook.

For details, please refer to the documentation.

What's inside

Git Events Runner provides several custom resources (CRDs) to define such entities as:

  • Sources - URI and auth parameters of git repositories which should be watching and using to run Actions.
  • Triggers - conditions and restrictions of changes in Sources which triggers Actions: which repos, branches or tags to watch and how often. It includes scheduled and webhook triggers.
  • Actions - predefined configurations of K8s Job to run as reaction to fired Trigger.

Everything is glued by dedicated Kubernetes controller inside a cluster.

Where it applies

  • Various Continues Deployment (CD) processes, where Kubernetes resources are involved.
  • Running periodic tasks in Kubernetes, based on code in Git repo.
  • Triggering tasks in Kubernetes by webhooks, based on code in Git repo.
  • Replacement of CI/CD functionality, provided by repository vendor (GitHub actions, for example) where direct access to Kubernetes or cloud resources is needed but with guarantied permissions restrictions.

Current state

This is a working beta, and it's under active development now.
