Can someone give an example of how to use the gitRepo type of volume in Kubernetes?
The doc says it's a plugin, not sure what that means. Could not find an example anywhere and i don't know the proper syntax.
especially is there parameters to pull a specific branch, use credentials (username, password, or SSH key) etc...
EDIT: Going through the Kubernetes code this is what I figured so far:
- name: data
gitRepo:
repository: "git repo url"
revision: "hash of the commit to use"But can't seen to make it work, and not sure how to troubleshoot this issue
This is a sample application I used:
{
"kind": "ReplicationController",
"apiVersion": "v1",
"metadata": {
"name": "tess.io",
"labels": {
"name": "tess.io"
}
},
"spec": {
"replicas": 3,
"selector": {
"name": "tess.io"
},
"template": {
"metadata": {
"labels": {
"name": "tess.io"
}
},
"spec": {
"containers": [
{
"image": "tess/tessio:0.0.3",
"name": "tessio",
"ports": [
{
"containerPort": 80,
"protocol": "TCP"
}
],
"volumeMounts": [
{
"mountPath": "/tess",
"name": "tess"
}
]
}
],
"volumes": [
{
"name": "tess",
"gitRepo": {
"repository": "https://<TOKEN>:x-oauth-basic@github.com/tess/tess.io"
}
}
]
}
}
}
}
And you can use the revision too.
PS: The repo above does not exist anymore.
UPDATE:
gitRepo is now deprecated

ORIGINAL ANSWER:
going through the code this is what i figured:
- name: data
gitRepo:
repository: "git repo url"
revision: "hash of the commit to use"after fixing typos in my mountPath, it works fine.
