Joel Lord (joel__lord on Twitter) is passionate about the web and technology in general. He likes to learn new things, but most of all, he wants to share his discoveries. He does so by traveling to various conferences all across the globe. He graduated from college with a degree in computer programming in the last millennium. Apart from a little break to get his BSc in computational astrophysics, he has always worked in the industry. In his daily job, Joel is a developer advocate with MongoDB, where he connects with software engineers to help them make the web better by using best practices around JavaScript. In his free time, he can be found stargazing on a campground somewhere or brewing a fresh batch of beer in his garage.

Using volume claim templates

Instead of specifying a persistent volume claim directly, you can also ask Tekton to create a temporary one for you. This can be useful when you don't need to persist data outside of your pipelines. As an additional benefit, using a volume claim template enables you to run multiple pipeline runs concurrently. To use a volumeClaimTemplate, you will need to write a new pipeline run. This time, you will add the pipelineSpec, which is a way to define your entire pipeline without relying on a separate pipeline object:

  1. Start with a new file called pvc-template.yaml. In there, create a new PipelineRun object:
    apiVersion: tekton.dev/v1beta1 
    kind: PipelineRun 
    metadata: 
      generateName: clone-and-ls-pr-  
  2. In the spec field of the pipeline run, add a pipelineSpec field containing a workspaces list with one workspace called codebase:
    spec:
      pipelineSpec: 
        workspaces:
