Overview

This node interacts with Kubernetes to run a pod within a specified namespace. It allows users to specify a container image and a command to execute inside the pod. The node then runs the pod and retrieves the output from the command execution. This is useful for automating containerized tasks, testing container images, or running batch jobs in Kubernetes environments.

Use Case Examples

1. Running a pod with a specific container image and command to perform a task and capture its output.
2. Automating deployment scripts by running commands inside Kubernetes pods.
3. Testing container images by running commands and checking their output within a Kubernetes cluster.

Properties

Output

JSON

• stdout - The standard output from the command executed inside the pod.

Dependencies

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

Troubleshooting

• Ensure that the Kubernetes credentials are correctly configured and accessible; otherwise, the node will throw a 'No credentials got returned!' error.
• The 'Command' property must be a valid JSON array; if not, the node throws a 'Command must be an array!' error.
• Verify that the specified namespace exists in the Kubernetes cluster to avoid namespace-related errors.
