Tekton Triggers is a Kubernetes Custom Resource Definition (CRD) controller that allows you to create Kubernetes resources based on information it extracts from event payloads.

Tekton Triggers originates from the implementation of this design (visible to members of the Tekton mailing list).

Background

Tekton is a Kubernetes-native continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) framework that allows you to create containerized, composable, and configurable workloads declaratively through Kubernetes CRDs. When integrated with Tekton Triggers, Tekton allows you to easily create fully fledged CI/CD systems in which you define all mechanics exclusively using Kubernetes resources.

To learn more, see the Tekton Triggers Overview.

Getting Started

To get started with Tekton Triggers, see the latest version of our docs:

The "Getting Started with Tekton Triggers" guide walks you through setting up an end-to-end image building solution triggered via GitHub's push events.

Version specific links are available in the releases page and on the Tekton website.
