Build Status

kube-builder is a utility image that includes several tools useful in Drone pipelines for building Docker images and deploying them to Kubernetes.

Included Tools

• curl
• wget
• openssh-client
• git
• zip
• unzip
• awscli
• rsync
• jq
• ca-certificates
• make
• build-essential
• gnupg
• lsb-release
• kubectl
• kustomize
• helm
• gh
• kube-linter
• Go
• rancher-projects
• Docker
• Docker Buildx

Usage

To use the kube-builder image in your Drone pipelines, simply specify supporttools/kube-builder as the image name in your .drone.yml file:

Copy code
pipeline:
  build:
    image: supporttools/kube-builder
    commands:
      - make build
      - make push
      - kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml

This example pipeline runs a make command to build a Docker image, then pushes the image to a Docker registry, and finally deploys the Kubernetes manifest in deployment.yaml using kubectl apply.

You can also use the included tools directly in your pipeline commands:

Copy code
pipeline:
  build:
    image: supporttools/kube-builder
    commands:
      - kubectl version --client
      - kustomize build overlays/dev | kubectl apply -f -
      - helm upgrade --install my-app chart/

This example pipeline uses kubectl to check the client version, kustomize to build a Kubernetes manifest from an overlay, and helm to upgrade or install a Helm chart.
