Chapter 2. Understanding build configurations
The following sections define the concept of a build, build configuration, and outline the primary build strategies available.
2.1. BuildConfigs
A build configuration describes a single build definition and a set of triggers for when a new build is created. Build configurations are defined by a BuildConfig
, which is a REST object that can be used in a POST to the API server to create a new instance.
A build configuration, or BuildConfig
, is characterized by a build strategy and one or more sources. The strategy determines the process, while the sources provide its input.
Depending on how you choose to create your application using OpenShift Dedicated, a BuildConfig
is typically generated automatically for you if you use the web console or CLI, and it can be edited at any time. Understanding the parts that make up a BuildConfig
and their available options can help if you choose to manually change your configuration later.
The following example BuildConfig
results in a new build every time a container image tag or the source code changes:
BuildConfig
object definition
kind: BuildConfig apiVersion: build.openshift.io/v1 metadata: name: "ruby-sample-build" 1 spec: runPolicy: "Serial" 2 triggers: 3 - type: "GitHub" github: secret: "secret101" - type: "Generic" generic: secret: "secret101" - type: "ImageChange" source: 4 git: uri: "https://github.com/openshift/ruby-hello-world" strategy: 5 sourceStrategy: from: kind: "ImageStreamTag" name: "ruby-20-centos7:latest" output: 6 to: kind: "ImageStreamTag" name: "origin-ruby-sample:latest" postCommit: 7 script: "bundle exec rake test"
- 1
- This specification creates a new
BuildConfig
namedruby-sample-build
. - 2
- The
runPolicy
field controls whether builds created from this build configuration can be run simultaneously. The default value isSerial
, which means new builds run sequentially, not simultaneously. - 3
- You can specify a list of triggers, which cause a new build to be created.
- 4
- The
source
section defines the source of the build. The source type determines the primary source of input, and can be eitherGit
, to point to a code repository location,Dockerfile
, to build from an inline Dockerfile, orBinary
, to accept binary payloads. It is possible to have multiple sources at once. See the documentation for each source type for details. - 5
- The
strategy
section describes the build strategy used to execute the build. You can specify aSource
,Docker
, orCustom
strategy here. This example uses theruby-20-centos7
container image that Source-to-image (S2I) uses for the application build. - 6
- After the container image is successfully built, it is pushed into the repository described in the
output
section. - 7
- The
postCommit
section defines an optional build hook.
