Install¶

You can install the pre-compiled binary (in several ways), or compile from source. We also provide a GitHub action to easily install Kyverno-JSON in your workflows.

Install the pre-compiled binary¶

Homebrew tap¶

add tap:

brew tap kyverno/kyverno-json https://github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json

install kyverno-json:

brew install kyverno/kyverno-json/kyverno-json

Manually¶

Download the pre-compiled binaries for your system from the releases page and copy them to the desired location.

Using `go install`¶

You can install with go install with:

go install github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json@latest

Running with Docker¶

Kyverno-JSON is also available as a Docker image which you can pull and run:

docker pull ghcr.io/kyverno/kyverno-json:<version>

Info

Since kyverno-JSON relies on files for its operation (like ValidatingPolicy definitions), you will need to bind mount the necessary directories when running it via Docker.

$ docker run --rm                       \
    -v /path/on/host:/path/in/container \
    ghcr.io/kyverno/kyverno-json:<version>  \
    <kyverno-json-command>

Build from the source code¶

clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/kyverno/kyverno-json.git

build the binaries:

cd kyverno-json
go mod tidy
make build

verify the build:

./kyverno-json version
