Prow: Streamlined Kubernetes Development
NOTE: Prow is experimental and does not have a stable release yet.
Prow handles the heavy lifting involved in taking source code and deploying it to Kubernetes:
- Builds a container image from application source code
- Pushes the image to a registry
- Packages a Helm chart from application source code
- Installs the chart to Kubernetes, deploying the application
Usage
Install Prow
Because Prow is currently experimental, there is no stable release out yet and users are expected to be using the latest build of Prow for testing. Canary releases of the Prow client can be found at the following links:
Unpack the Prow binary and add it to your PATH and you are good to go!
To install the server-side of Prow, use prow init with your credentials to let Prow communicate
with a Docker registry:
$ prow init --set registry.url=docker.io,registry.org=changeme,registry.authtoken=changeme
The auth token field follows the format of Docker's X-Registry-Auth header. For credential-based logins such as Docker Hub and Quay, use
$ echo '{"username":"jdoe","password":"secret","email":"jdoe@acme.com"}' | base64
For token-based logins such as Google Container Registry and Amazon ECR, use
$ echo '{"registrytoken":"9cbaf023786cd7"}' | base64
If you're looking to build from source or get started hacking on Prow, please see the hacking guide for more information.
Use It!
