Overview

Tekton is a cloud-native solution for building CI/CD pipelines. Tekton installs and runs as an extension on your Kubernetes cluster and uses the well-established Kubernetes resource model. Tekton workloads execute inside Kubernetes containers. It is implemented as a set of Kubernetes Custom Resources. It has several components: Tekton Pipelines, Tekton CLI and Tekton Catalog. Once deployed, Tekton can be accessed via Tekton CLI commands or API calls. Tekton is part of the CD Foundation, a Linux Foundation project.

Tekton Runtime Model

Tekton Pipelines tracks the state of a pipeline using Kubernetes annotations, which are projected inside each step container in the form of files with the Kubernetes Downward API. The step container entrypoint binary watches these projected files and will only start the command the step is supposed to execute only if a specific annotation appears as file. For more details see:

Tekton Labels and Annotations

In addition, Tekton Pipelines schedules some containers to run automatically before and after the step containers to support built-in features such as the retrieval of input resources and the uploading the outputs to wherever they are supposed to go.

Task

ClusterTask

A task is available in a certain namespace, while a ClusterTask is available across the entire cluster. A ClusterTask behaves identically to a task. When declaring a ClusterTask in the pipeline definition, the kind sub-field of the taskRef should be explicitly set to ClusterTask. If not specified, kind defaults to Task.

apiVersion: tekton.dev/v1beta1
kind: Pipeline

spec:
  tasks:
    - name: some-cluster-task
      taskRef:
