Chapter 11: Triggering Tekton
Now that you know how Tekton Triggers can help you automate your CI/CD pipelines, it is time to put this knowledge to good use. Adding a trigger to start your pipelines automatically is the last step to build a truly automated deployment of your applications.
In this chapter, you will start by creating a simple pipeline. The goal of this pipeline will be to demonstrate that the pipeline can be triggered when you push a new commit to your code repository. Once you have added this pipeline to your cluster, you will see how to create a template, binding, and event listener to listen for GitHub webhooks.
Then, you will need to configure a code repository to connect to your cluster whenever a push event happens. After that, you will be able to test everything out and see how the pipeline is triggered.
In this chapter, we are going to cover the following main topics:
- Creating a pipeline to be triggered
- Creating the trigger
- Configuring...
