Chapter 3. Using Pipelines as Code with a Git repository hosting service provider
After installing Pipelines as Code, cluster administrators can configure a Git repository hosting service provider. Currently, the following services are supported:
- GitHub App
- GitHub Webhook
- GitLab
- Bitbucket Server
- Bitbucket Cloud
GitHub App is the recommended service for using with Pipelines as Code.
3.1. Using Pipelines as Code with a GitHub App
GitHub Apps act as a point of integration with Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines and bring the advantage of Git-based workflows to OpenShift Pipelines. Cluster administrators can configure a single GitHub App for all cluster users. For GitHub Apps to work with Pipelines as Code, ensure that the webhook of the GitHub App points to the Pipelines as Code controller route (or ingress endpoint) that listens for GitHub events.
There are three ways to set up a GitHub app for Pipelines as Code:
-
Use the
tkn
command line utility. - Use the Administrator perspective of the web console.
- Set up the app manually in GitHub and then create a secret for Pipelines as Code.
By default, Pipelines as Code can communicate with one GitHub app. If you configured additional Pipelines as Code controllers to communicate with additional GitHub apps, configure each of the GitHub apps separately. You must set up GitHub apps for any additional controllers manually.
3.1.1. Configuring a GitHub App using the command line interface
You can use the tkn
command line utility to create a GitHub app and configure the Pipelines as Code controller for the GitHub app.
If you created additional Pipelines as Code controllers to support additional GitHub apps, you can use this procedure only for the main controller. To create a GitHub app for an additional controller, use the manual procedure.
Prerequisites
- You are logged on to the OpenShift Container Platform cluster as a cluster administrator.
-
You installed the
tkn
command line utility with thetkn pac
plugin.
Procedure
Enter the following command:
$ tkn pac bootstrap github-app
This command assumes that your account uses a standard github.com API endpoint. If you use a different GitHub API endpoint, for example, if you use GitHub Enterprise, use the
--github-api-url
option to specify the endpoint, as in the following example:Example command
$ tkn pac bootstrap github-app --github-api-url https://github.com/enterprises/example-enterprise
3.1.2. Creating a GitHub App in administrator perspective
As a cluster administrator, you can configure your GitHub App with the OpenShift Container Platform cluster to use Pipelines as Code. This configuration allows you to execute a set of tasks required for build deployment.
If you created additional Pipelines as Code controllers to support additional GitHub apps, you can use this procedure only for the main controller. To create a GitHub app for an additional controller, use the manual procedure.
Prerequisites
You have installed the Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines pipelines-1.16
operator from the Operator Hub.
Procedure
- In the administrator perspective, navigate to Pipelines using the navigation pane.
- Click Setup GitHub App on the Pipelines page.
-
Enter your GitHub App name. For example,
pipelines-ci-clustername-testui
. - Click Setup.
- Enter your Git password when prompted in the browser.
-
Click Create GitHub App for <username>, where
<username>
is your GitHub user name.
Verification
After successful creation of the GitHub App, the OpenShift Container Platform web console opens and displays the details about the application.
The details of the GitHub App are saved as a secret in the openShift-pipelines
namespace.
To view details such as name, link, and secret associated with the GitHub applications, navigate to Pipelines and click View GitHub App.
3.1.3. Configuring a GitHub App manually and creating a secret for Pipelines as Code
You can use the GitHub user interface to create a GitHub app. Then you must create a secret that configures Pipelines as Code to connect to GitHub app.
If you created additional Pipelines as Code controllers to support additional GitHub apps, you must use this procedure for the additional controllers.
Procedure
- Sign in to your GitHub account.
-
In the GitHub menu, select Settings
Developer settings GitHub Apps, then click New GitHub App. Provide the following information in the GitHub App form:
-
GitHub Application Name:
OpenShift Pipelines
- Homepage URL: OpenShift Console URL
Webhook URL: The Pipelines as Code route or ingress URL. You can find it by running the following command:
$ echo https://$(oc get route -n openshift-pipelines pipelines-as-code-controller -o jsonpath='{.spec.host}')
Alternatively, to configure the GitHub app for an additional Pipelines as Code controller, replace
pipelines-as-code-controller
with the name of the controller that you configured, as in the following example:Example command
$ echo https://$(oc get route -n openshift-pipelines pac_controller_2 -o jsonpath='{.spec.host}')
Webhook secret: An arbitrary secret. You can generate a secret by running the following command:
$ openssl rand -hex 20
-
GitHub Application Name:

- Click Create GitHub App.
- On the Details page of the newly created GitHub App, note the App ID displayed at the top.
- In the Private keys section, click Generate Private key to automatically generate and download a private key for the GitHub app. Securely store the private key for future reference and usage.
- Install the created App on a repository that you want to use with Pipelines as Code.
Configure Pipelines as Code to access the newly created GitHub App by entering the following command:
$ oc -n openshift-pipelines create secret generic pipelines-as-code-secret \ 1 --from-literal github-private-key="$(cat <PATH_PRIVATE_KEY>)" \ 2 --from-literal github-application-id="<APP_ID>" \ 3 --from-literal webhook.secret="<WEBHOOK_SECRET>" 4
- 1
- If you created additional Pipelines as Code controllers to support additional GitHub apps and you are configuring the app for an additional controller, replace
pipelines-as-code-secret
with the name that you configured in thesecretName
parameter for the controller. - 2
- The path to the private key you downloaded while configuring the GitHub App.
- 3
- The App ID of the GitHub App.
- 4
- The webhook secret provided when you created the GitHub App.
Pipelines as Code works automatically with GitHub Enterprise by detecting the header set from GitHub Enterprise and using it for the GitHub Enterprise API authorization URL.
3.1.4. Scoping the GitHub token to additional repositories
Pipelines as Code uses the GitHub app to generate a GitHub access token. Pipelines as Code uses this token to retrieve the pipeline payload from the repository and to enable the CI/CD processes to interact with GitHub repositories.
By default, the access token is scoped only to the repository from which Pipelines as Code retrieves the pipeline definition. In some cases, you might want the token to have access to additional repositories. For example, there might be a CI repository where the .tekton/pr.yaml
file and source payload are located, but the build process defined in pr.yaml
fetches tasks from a separate private CD repository.
You can extend the scope of the GitHub token in two ways:
- Global configuration: You can extend the GitHub token to a list of repositories in different namespaces. You must have administrative permissions to set this configuration.
- Repository level configuration: You can extend the GitHub token to a list of repositories that exist in the same namespace as the original repository. You do not need administrative permissions to set this configuration.
Procedure
-
In the
TektonConfig
custom resource (CR), in thepipelinesAsCode.settings
spec, set thesecret-github-app-token-scoped
parameter tofalse
. This setting enables scoping the GitHub token to private and public repositories listed in the global and repository level configuration. To set global configuration for scoping the GitHub token, in the
TektonConfig
CR, in thepipelinesAsCode.settings
spec, specify the additional repositories in thesecret-github-app-scope-extra-repos
parameter, as in the following example:apiVersion: operator.tekton.dev/v1alpha1 kind: TektonConfig metadata: name: config spec: platforms: openshift: pipelinesAsCode: enable: true settings: secret-github-app-token-scoped: false secret-github-app-scope-extra-repos: "owner2/project2, owner3/project3"
To set repository level configuration for scoping the GitHub token, specify the additional repositories in the
github_app_token_scope_repos
parameter of theRepository
CR, as in the following example:apiVersion: "pipelinesascode.tekton.dev/v1alpha1" kind: Repository metadata: name: test namespace: test-repo spec: url: "https://github.com/linda/project" settings: github_app_token_scope_repos: - "owner/project" - "owner1/project1"
In this example, the
Repository
custom resource is associated with thelinda/project
repository in thetest-repo
namespace. The scope of the generated GitHub token is extended to theowner/project
andowner1/project1
repositories, as well as thelinda/project
repository. These repositories must exist under thetest-repo
namespace.NoteThe additional repositories can be public or private, but must reside in the same namespace as the repository with which the
Repository
resource is associated.If any of the repositories do not exist in the namespace, the scoping of the GitHub token fails with an error message:
failed to scope GitHub token as repo owner1/project1 does not exist in namespace test-repo
Result
The generated GitHub token enables access to the additional repositories that you configured in the global and repository level configuration, as well as the original repository where the Pipelines as Code payload files are located.
If you provide both global configuration and repository level configuration, the token is scoped to all the repositories from both configurations, as in the following example.
TektonConfig
custom resource
apiVersion: operator.tekton.dev/v1alpha1 kind: TektonConfig metadata: name: config spec: platforms: openshift: pipelinesAsCode: enable: true settings: secret-github-app-token-scoped: false secret-github-app-scope-extra-repos: "owner2/project2, owner3/project3"
Repository
custom resource
apiVersion: "pipelinesascode.tekton.dev/v1alpha1" kind: Repository metadata: name: test namespace: test-repo spec: url: "https://github.com/linda/project" settings: github_app_token_scope_repos: - "owner/project" - "owner1/project1"
The GitHub token is scoped to the owner/project
, owner1/project1
, owner2/project2
, owner3/project3
, and linda/project
respositories.
3.2. Using Pipelines as Code with GitHub Webhook
Use Pipelines as Code with GitHub Webhook on your repository if you cannot create a GitHub App. However, using Pipelines as Code with GitHub Webhook does not give you access to the GitHub Check Runs API. The status of the tasks is added as comments on the pull request and is unavailable under the Checks tab.
Pipelines as Code with GitHub Webhook does not support GitOps comments such as /retest
and /ok-to-test
. To restart the continuous integration (CI), create a new commit to the repository. For example, to create a new commit without any changes, you can use the following command:
$ git --amend -a --no-edit && git push --force-with-lease <origin> <branchname>
Prerequisites
- Ensure that Pipelines as Code is installed on the cluster.
For authorization, create a personal access token on GitHub.
To generate a secure and fine-grained token, restrict its scope to a specific repository and grant the following permissions:
Table 3.1. Permissions for fine-grained tokens Name Access Administration
Read-only
Metadata
Read-only
Content
Read-only
Commit statuses
Read and Write
Pull request

To use classic tokens, set the scope as
public_repo
for public repositories andrepo
for private repositories. In addition, provide a short token expiration period and note the token in an alternate location.NoteIf you want to configure the webhook using the
tkn pac
CLI, add theadmin:repo_hook
scope.
Procedure
Configure the webhook and create a
Repository
custom resource (CR).To configure a webhook and create a
Repository

3.3. Using Pipelines as Code with GitLab
If your organization or project uses GitLab as the preferred platform, you can use Pipelines as Code for your repository with a webhook on GitLab.
Prerequisites
- Ensure that Pipelines as Code is installed on the cluster.
For authorization, generate a personal access token as the manager of the project or organization on GitLab.
Note-
If you want to configure the webhook using the
tkn pac
CLI, add theadmin:repo_hook
scope to the token. - Using a token scoped for a specific project cannot provide API access to a merge request (MR) sent from a forked repository. In such cases, Pipelines as Code displays the result of a pipeline as a comment on the MR.

On your OpenShift cluster, create a
Secret
object with the app password in the target namespace.$ oc -n target-namespace create secret generic bitbucket-server-webhook-config \ --from-literal provider.token="<PERSONAL_TOKEN>" \ --from-literal webhook.secret="<WEBHOOK_SECRET>"
Create a
Repository
CR.Example:
Repository
CRapiVersion: "pipelinesascode.tekton.dev/v1alpha1" kind: Repository metadata: name: my-repo namespace: target-namespace spec: url: "https://bitbucket.com/workspace/repo" git_provider: url: "https://bitbucket.server.api.url/rest" 1 user: "<BITBUCKET_USERNAME>" 2 secret: 3 name: "bitbucket-server-webhook-config" key: "provider.token" # Set this if you have a different key in your secret webhook_secret: name: "bitbucket-server-webhook-config" key: "webhook.secret" # Set this if you have a different key for your secret

- Ensure that you have the right Bitbucket Server API URL without the
/api/v1.0
suffix. Usually, the default install has a/rest
suffix. - 2
- You can only reference a user by the
ACCOUNT_ID
in an owner file. - 3
- Pipelines as Code assumes that the secret referred in the
git_provider.secret
spec and theRepository
CR is in the same namespace.
NoteThe
tkn pac create
andtkn pac bootstrap
commands are not supported on Bitbucket Server.

3.6. Interfacing Pipelines as Code with custom certificates
To configure Pipelines as Code with a Git repository that is accessible with a privately signed or custom certificate, you can expose the certificate to Pipelines as Code.
Procedure
-
If you have installed Pipelines as Code using the Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines Operator, you can add your custom certificate to the cluster using the
Proxy
object. The Operator exposes the certificate in all Red Hat OpenShift Pipelines components and workloads, including Pipelines as Code.

3.7. Using private repositories with Pipelines as Code
Pipelines as Code supports private repositories by creating or updating a secret in the target namespace with the user token. The git-clone
task from Tekton Hub uses the user token to clone private repositories.
Whenever Pipelines as Code creates a new pipeline run in the target namespace, it creates or updates a secret with the pac-gitauth-<REPOSITORY_OWNER>-<REPOSITORY_NAME>-<RANDOM_STRING>
format.
You must reference the secret with the basic-auth
workspace in your pipeline run and pipeline definitions, which is then passed on to the git-clone
task.
... workspace: - name: basic-auth secret: secretName: "{{ git_auth_secret }}" ...
In the pipeline, you can reference the basic-auth
workspace for the git-clone
task to reuse:
...
workspaces:
- name basic-auth
params:
- name: repo_url
- name: revision
...
tasks:
workspaces:
- name: basic-auth
workspace: basic-auth
...
tasks:
- name: git-clone-from-catalog
taskRef:
name: git-clone 1
params:
- name: url
value: $(params.repo_url)
- name: revision
value: $(params.revision)
...
- 1
- The
git-clone
task picks up thebasic-auth
workspace and uses it to clone the private repository.
You can modify this configuration by setting the secret-auto-create
parameter to either a false
or true
value, as required, in the TektonConfig
custom resource, in the pipelinesAsCode.settings
spec.
