For now, I'll try to make it simple : * one replica for my app pod * one google persistent volume for the pictures, mounted in the app pod * after each roll out, I'll manually run a command in the app container to perform the copy (from app/fixtures/*.jpg to /my-volume/pictures) Later, I'm wondering if something more sophisticated (but resilient/efficient) can be possible : * possibly several replicas of my app pod * a flocker-based volume mount * a jenkins job, lauchable on demand to command the copy How does that sound ?

The only example in the documentation shows a repository URL that uses the git protocol.

In the case where cluster nodes have no access to the Internet or any other host outside the cluster (or the cluster shouldn't make any external connections), is it possible to clone the Git repository before the volume is created or mounted?

Then it would roll the application deployment once the volume was updated. There isn't an off the shelf chunk of code that will do this for you unfortunately. You would need to string it together with some poll/webhook code and the Kubernetes client or API. Another, potentially easier, way to tackle this would be to create a container and schedule it in the same pod in your app. The container would simply have a git client inside of it and execute a bash script that does a pull on some interval: `while true; do git clone https://git.repo/photos.git photos; git pull https://git.repo/photos.git staging; sleep 10; done` Hope that helps!

[kubernetes-users] How to perform automatic data copy/reset with Kubernetes ?
Hi. Here's what I'm trying to set up : * An app which handle files, let's say profile pictures. A volume mount is used. * A single staging environment. The app is not yet in production. * A CD pipeline with Jenkins, to automatically apply updated k8s configuration (with new docker image verions of the app). * A way to copy some profile pictures versionned with git on the volume mount. Those pictures are copied in the app image (Dockerfile) during the CD step. The goal is to reset (or reload) the mount with the versionned pictures in git, everytime a commit is done on the staging branch. My question is about the last point : * how can I trigger the copy ? * should I use a job ? * should I use a multiple read-write consumer volume type (e.g flocker) ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Kubernetes user discussion and Q&A" group.
