Push

type: "io.kestra.plugin.git.Push"

Commit and push files to a Git repository.

Replaced by PushFlows and PushNamespaceFiles for flow and namespace files push scenario. You can add inputFiles to be committed and pushed. Furthermore, you can use this task in combination with the Clone task so that you can first clone the repository, then add or modify files and push to Git afterwards. Check the examples below as well as the Version Control with Git documentation for more information.

Examples

Push flows and namespace files to a Git repository every 15 minutes.

id: push_to_git
namespace: company.team

tasks:
  - id: commit_and_push
    type: io.kestra.plugin.git.Push
    namespaceFiles:
      enabled: true
    flows:
      enabled: true
    url: https://github.com/kestra-io/scripts
    branch: kestra
    username: git_username
    password: "{{ secret('GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN') }}"
    commitMessage: "add flows and scripts {{ now() }}"

triggers:
  - id: schedule_push
    type: io.kestra.plugin.core.trigger.Schedule
    cron: "*/15 * * * *"

Clone the main branch, generate a file in a script, and then push that new file to Git. Since we're in a working directory with a .git directory, you don't need to specify the URL in the Push task. However, the Git credentials always need to be explicitly provided on both Clone and Push tasks (unless using task defaults).

id: push_new_file_to_git
namespace: company.team

inputs:
  - id: commit_message
    type: STRING
    defaults: add a new file to Git

tasks:
  - id: wdir
    type: io.kestra.plugin.core.flow.WorkingDirectory
    tasks:
      - id: clone
        type: io.kestra.plugin.git.Clone
        branch: main
        url: https://github.com/kestra-io/scripts
      - id: generate_data
        type: io.kestra.plugin.scripts.python.Commands
        docker:
          image: ghcr.io/kestra-io/pydata:latest
        commands:
          - python generate_data/generate_orders.py
      - id: push
        type: io.kestra.plugin.git.Push
        username: git_username
        password: myPAT
        branch: feature_branch
        inputFiles:
          to_commit/avg_order.txt: "{{ outputs.generate_data.vars.average_order }}"
        addFilesPattern:
          - to_commit
        commitMessage: "{{ inputs.commit_message }}"

Properties

branch

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ✔️

The branch to which files should be committed and pushed.

If the branch doesn't exist yet, it will be created.

commitMessage

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ✔️

Commit message.

addFilesPattern

• Type: array
• SubType: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌
• Default: [.]

Patterns of files to add to the commit. Default is . which means all files.

A directory name (e.g. dir to add dir/file1 and dir/file2) can also be given to add all files in the directory, recursively. File globs (e.g. *.py) are not yet supported.

author

• Type: Push-Author
• Dynamic: ❌
• Required: ❌

Commit author.

cloneSubmodules

• Type: boolean
• Dynamic: ❌
• Required: ❌

Whether to clone submodules.

directory

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌

The optional directory associated with the clone operation.

If the directory isn't set, the current directory will be used.

flows

• Type: Push-FlowFiles
• Dynamic: ❌
• Required: ❌
• Default: {enabled=true, childNamespaces=true, gitDirectory=_flows}

Whether to push flows from the current namespace to Git.

inputFiles

• Type:
  • object
  • string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌

The files to create on the local filesystem. It can be a map or a JSON object.

namespaceFiles

• Type: NamespaceFiles
• Dynamic: ❌
• Required: ❌

Inject namespace files.

Inject namespace files to this task. When enabled, it will, by default, load all namespace files into the working directory. However, you can use the include or exclude properties to limit which namespace files will be injected.

passphrase

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌

The passphrase for the privateKey.

password

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌

The password or Personal Access Token (PAT). When you authenticate the task with a PAT, any flows or files pushed to Git from Kestra will be pushed from the user associated with that PAT. This way, you don't need to configure the commit author (the authorName and authorEmail properties).

privateKey

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌

PEM-format private key content that is paired with a public key registered on Git.

To generate an ECDSA PEM format key from OpenSSH, use the following command: ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -b 256 -m PEM. You can then set this property with your private key content and put your public key on Git.

url

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌

The URI to clone from.

username

• Type: string
• Dynamic: ✔️
• Required: ❌

The username or organization.

Outputs

commitId

• Type: string
• Required: ❌

ID of the commit pushed.

Definitions

io.kestra.plugin.git.Push-FlowFiles

• Required: ❌
• Default: true

Whether flows from child namespaces should be included.

io.kestra.core.models.tasks.NamespaceFiles

Properties

enabled

• Type: boolean
• Dynamic: ❌
• Required: ❌
• Default: true

Whether to enable namespace files to be loaded into the working directory. If explicitly set to true in a task, it will load all Namespace Files into the task's working directory. Note that this property is by default set to true so that you can specify only the include and exclude properties to filter the files to load without having to explicitly set enabled to true.

exclude

• Type: array
• SubType: string
• Dynamic: ❌
• Required: ❌

A list of filters to exclude matching glob patterns. This allows you to exclude a subset of the Namespace Files from being downloaded at runtime. You can combine this property together with include to only inject a subset of files that you need into the task's working directory.

include

• Type: array
• SubType: string
• Dynamic: ❌
• Required: ❌

A list of filters to include only matching glob patterns. This allows you to only load a subset of the Namespace Files into the working directory.
