Kind Action

A GitHub Action for Kubernetes IN Docker - local clusters for testing Kubernetes using kubernetes-sigs/kind.

Usage

Pre-requisites

Create a workflow YAML file in your .github/workflows directory. An example workflow is available below. For more information, reference the GitHub Help Documentation for Creating a workflow file.

Inputs

For more information on inputs, see the API Documentation

• version: The kind version to use (default: v0.21.0)
• config: The path to the kind config file
• node_image: The Docker image for the cluster nodes
• cluster_name: The name of the cluster to create (default: chart-testing)
• wait: The duration to wait for the control plane to become ready (default: 60s)
• verbosity: info log verbosity, higher value produces more output
• kubectl_version: The kubectl version to use (default: v1.28.6)
• install_only: Skips cluster creation, only install kind (default: false)
• ignore_failed_clean: Whether to ignore the post delete cluster action failing (default: false)

Example Workflow

Create a workflow (eg: .github/workflows/create-cluster.yml):

name: Create Cluster

on: pull_request

jobs:
  create-cluster:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Create k8s Kind Cluster
        uses: helm/kind-action@v1

This uses @helm/kind-action GitHub Action to spin up a kind Kubernetes cluster on every Pull Request. See @helm/chart-testing-action for a more practical example.
