Overview

This node interacts with Kubernetes clusters to perform various operations on Kubernetes resources. Specifically, for the 'Jobs' resource with the 'Restart' operation, it allows restarting a Kubernetes Job within a specified namespace. This is useful for automating Kubernetes job management tasks such as restarting failed or completed jobs programmatically within workflows.

Use Case Examples

1. Restart a Kubernetes Job named 'my-job' in the 'default' namespace to rerun the job automatically.
2. Automate job restarts in a CI/CD pipeline to ensure jobs are retried on failure.

Properties

Output

JSON

• stdout - The standard output from running or restarting the Kubernetes job, typically containing the result or logs of the operation.

Dependencies

• Requires Kubernetes API credentials to authenticate and interact with the Kubernetes cluster.

Troubleshooting

• If no credentials are provided or invalid, the node throws an error 'No credentials got returned!'. Ensure valid Kubernetes API credentials are configured.
• If the 'command' parameter is not an array when running a pod, an error 'Command must be an array!' is thrown. Provide the command as a JSON array.
• Ensure the specified namespace and resource name exist in the Kubernetes cluster to avoid resource not found errors.
