ODS Pipeline
IMPORTANT: This approach is currently being evaluated. This may or may not become part of ODS one day.
Introduction
ODS Pipeline provides a CI/CD pipeline based on OpenShift Pipelines as an alternative to Jenkins. This repository contains everything that relates to it, such as Tekton tasks, container images, Go packages, services, documentation, ...
The ODS Pipeline Introduction describes what ODS pipeline is and how it works. It is important to understand this before looking at further documentation or any other repository content.
Note that this ODS Pipeline repository does not provide tasks for building, packaging and deploying your application. You can use any Tekton task to fullfil those needs, however, there are a few "companion" tasks specifically designed for ODS Pipeline to cover common use cases. See the "Technical Reference" section below for information on those tasks.
