The Wiki in the open-toolchain/sdk repo has only basic information about how to specify GitHub integration. After looking through many code samples and related testing I found that the following service specification in the toolchain.yml works:
services:
tekton-catalog:
service_id: githubpublic
parameters:
repo_url: "https://github.com/open-toolchain/tekton-catalog"
source_repo_url: "https://github.com/open-toolchain/tekton-catalog"
type: "link"
has_issues: false
enable_traceability: false
kind: ['pipeline']
The type: "link"
refers to an existing repository. The repo URLs refer to the mentioned tekton-catalog. What is interesting is that by specifying kind: ['pipeline']
the repo configuration is not specified in the configuration dialog, but integrated as specified.
In your tekton.yml add a reference to the configured catalog in the input section and referencing an environment variable that you declared for the pipeline in the toolchain.yml. Something like
inputs:
- type: git
branch: master
service: ${TEKTON_CATALOG_REPO}
path: container-registry
with TEKTON_CATALOG_REPO based on
TEKTON_CATALOG_REPO: tekton-catalog
set as environment variable for the specific toolchain part.
