  on = "push"
  resolves = ["verify deployment"]
}

action "deploy to cluster" {
  needs = ["todo: build and push containers"]
  uses = "steebchen/kubectl@master"
  args = "set image --record deployment/my-app container=$GITHUB_REPOSITORY:$GITHUB_SHA"
  secrets = ["KUBE_CONFIG_DATA"]

action "verify deployment" {

Secrets

KUBE_CONFIG_DATA – required: A base64-encoded kubeconfig file with credentials for Kubernetes to access the cluster. You can get it by running the following command:

cat $HOME/.kube/config | base64

Note: Do not use kubectl config view as this will hide the certificate-authority-data.
