Creating an override snapshot

In Konflux, the integration service provides users with the ability to reset their component’s Global Candidate List to a desired state with a manually created override snapshot which can then be a candidate for further promotion (release) if it passes all integration tests.

Prerequisites

You have completed the steps listed in the Getting started in the CLI page.
You have an existing managed workspace such as ws-sample, an application such as application-sample and a component such as component-sample.

Procedures

To create an override snapshot, complete the following steps:

Identify the application and component that needs to be updated.

In your preferred IDE, create an override snapshot in a .yaml file.

Example snapshot.yaml file

apiVersion: appstudio.redhat.com/v1alpha1
kind: Snapshot
metadata:
  name: snapshot-sample
  namespace: ws-sample-tenant
  labels:
    test.appstudio.openshift.io/type: override (1)
spec:
  application: application-sample
  components:
    - name: component-sample (2)
      containerImage: quay.io/redhat-user-workloads/ws-sample-tenant/application-sample/component-sample@sha256:0db0a473a6abf5c15c424ab07cfbd5c40c06622fe648d4fe6a6b6abc224a0d0c (3)
      source: (4)
        git:
          url: https://github.com/sample-org/sample-repo
          revision: fa8b89274a61ef0f1c257b7a84c37aa2ec844109

1	The label `test.appstudio.openshift.io/type: override` that indicates this is an `override` snapshot.
2	The component name you will reset its Global Candidate List.
3	The container image with valid digest you will reset the component <2> to.
4	Optional, but may cause an Enterprise Contract check to fail if it’s incorrect or missing. The component source containing the git url and revision that the container image was built from.

Save the .yaml file and add the snapshot.yaml by running the following command:
```
$ kubectl create -f snapshot.yaml -n ws-sample-tenant
```
This command adds the override snapshot to your workspace and integration service will processe the override snapshot and update the component component-sample 's .Spec.ContainerImage to quay.io/redhat-user-workloads/ws-sample-tenant/application-sample/component-sample@sha256:0db0a473a6abf5c15c424ab07cfbd5c40c06622fe648d4fe6a6b6abc224a0d0c

Verification

After integration service processes the created override snapshot, you may verify snapshot and component by the following steps:

Check snapshot .Status.Conditions by the following command:

$ kubectl get snapshot snapshot-sample -n ws-sample-tenant -o yaml | yq '.status.conditions.[] | select(.type =="AddedToGlobalCandidateList")'
lastTransitionTime: "2024-06-05T18:20:37Z"
message: The Snapshot's component was added to the global candidate list
reason: Added
status: "True"
type: AddedToGlobalCandidateList

Browse to the component you are updating and select the Component details tab. The updated container image is shown under Image column. The updated source is shown under Source code column.

Check component’s .Spec.ContainerImage by the following command:

$ kubectl get component component-sample -n ws-sample-tenant -o yaml | yq .spec.containerImage
quay.io/redhat-user-workloads/ws-sample-tenant/application-sample/component-sample@sha256:0db0a473a6abf5c15c424ab07cfbd5c40c06622fe648d4fe6a6b6abc224a0d0c

Check component’s .Status.LastBuiltCommit by the following command:

$ kubectl get component component-sample -n ws-sample-tenant -o yaml | yq .status.lastBuiltCommit
