Usage examples¶

Below is an example of using apply in a Test resource.

Using a specific file

apiVersion: chainsaw.kyverno.io/v1alpha1
kind: Test
metadata:
  name: example
spec:
  steps:
  - try:
    # ...
    - apply:
        file: my-configmap.yaml
    # ...

Using file path expressions

apiVersion: chainsaw.kyverno.io/v1alpha1
kind: Test
metadata:
  name: example-multi
spec:
  steps:
  - try:
    # ...
    - apply:
        file: "configs/*.yaml"
    # ...

Using an URL

apiVersion: chainsaw.kyverno.io/v1alpha1
kind: Test
metadata:
  name: example
spec:
  steps:
  - try:
    # ...
    - apply:
        file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kyverno/chainsaw/main/testdata/step/configmap.yaml
    # ...

Using an inline resource

apiVersion: chainsaw.kyverno.io/v1alpha1
kind: Test
metadata:
  name: example
spec:
  steps:
  - try:
    # ...
    - apply:
        resource:
          apiVersion: v1
          kind: ConfigMap
          metadata:
            name: chainsaw-quick-start
          data:
            foo: bar
    # ...

Operation check¶

Below is an example of using an operation check.

With check

# ...
- apply:
    file: my-configmap.yaml
    expect:
    - match:
        # this check applies only if the match
        # statement below evaluates to `true`
        apiVersion: v1
        kind: ConfigMap
      check:
        # an error is expected, this will:
        # - succeed if the operation failed
        # - fail if the operation succeeded
        ($error != null): true
# ...

With check

# ...
- apply:
    resource:
      apiVersion: v1
      kind: ConfigMap
      metadata:
        name: chainsaw-quick-start
      data:
        foo: bar
    expect:
    - match:
        # this check applies only if the match
        # statement below evaluates to `true`
        apiVersion: v1
        kind: ConfigMap
      check:
        # an error is expected, this will:
        # - succeed if the operation failed
        # - fail if the operation succeeded
        ($error != null): true
# ...
