4.5. Working with bundle images

You can use the Operator SDK to package Operators using the Bundle Format.

4.5.1. Building a bundle image

You can build, push, and validate an Operator bundle image using the Operator SDK.

Prerequisites

  • Operator SDK version 0.17.2
  • podman version 1.4.4+
  • An Operator project generated using the Operator SDK

Procedure

  1. From your Operator project directory, build the bundle image using the Operator SDK:

    $ operator-sdk bundle create \
        quay.io/<namespace>/test-operator:v0.1.0 \1
        -b podman 2
    1
    The image tag that you want the bundle image to have.
    2
    The CLI tool to use for building the container image, either docker (default), podman, or buildah. This example uses podman.
    注意

    If your local manifests are not located in the default <project_root>/deploy/olm-catalog/test-operator/manifests, specify the location with the --directory flag.

  2. Log in to the registry where you want to push the bundle image. For example:

    $ podman login quay.io
  3. Push the bundle image to the registry:

    $ podman push quay.io/<namespace>/test-operator:v0.1.0
  4. Validate the bundle image in the remote registry:

    $ operator-sdk bundle validate \
        quay.io/<namespace>/test-operator:v0.1.0 \
        -b podman

    Example output

    INFO[0000] Unpacked image layers                                 bundle-dir=/tmp/bundle-041168359 container-tool=podman
    INFO[0000] running podman pull                                   bundle-dir=/tmp/bundle-041168359 container-tool=podman
    INFO[0002] running podman save                                   bundle-dir=/tmp/bundle-041168359 container-tool=podman
    INFO[0002] All validation tests have completed successfully      bundle-dir=/tmp/bundle-041168359 container-tool=podman
