New features

New features added to each component:

  • April 6, 2022 Highlight and pin interesting lines. To do this, shift-click on log lines in the buildlog lens. The URL fragment causes the same lines to be highlighted next page load. Additionally, when viewing a GCS log pressing the pin button saves the highlight. The saved highlight automatically displays next page load.
  • January 24, 2022 It is possible now to define GitHub Apps bots as trusted users to allow automatic tests trigger without relying on /ok-to-test from organization member. Trigger and DCO plugins configuration now support additional field trusted_apps, which contains list of GitHub Apps bot usernames without [bot] suffix.
  • January 11, 2022 Trigger plugin can now trigger failed github jobs. The feature needs to be enabled in the triggers section of the plugin.yaml config and can be specified per trigger as follows: 
    triggers:
- repos:
  - org/repo
  - org2
  trigger_github_workflows: true
  • August 24, 2021 Postsubmit Prow jobs now support the always_run field. This field interacts with the run_if_changed and skip_if_only_changed fields as follows:
    1. (NEW) If the field is explicitly set to always_run: false, then the Postsubmit will not run automatically. The intention is to allow other triggers outside of a GitHub change, such as a Pub/Sub event, to trigger the job. See this issue for the motivation. However if run_if_changed or skip_if_only_changed is also set, then those triggers are determined first; if for whatever reason they cannot be determined, then the job will not run automatically (and wait for another trigger such as a Pub/Sub event as mentioned above).
    2. If the field is explicitly set to always_run: true, then the Postsubmit job will always run. Also trying to set run_if_changed or skip_if_only_changed in the same Postsubmit job will result in a config error. This mutual exclusivity matches the configuration behavior of Presubmit jobs, which also disallow combining always_run: true together with run_if_changed or skip_if_only_changed.
    3. If always_run is not set (missing from the job config):
      1. If both run_if_changed and skip_if_only_changed are not set: same as old behavior (Postsubmit job will run automatically upon a GitHub change).
      2. If one of run_if_changed or skip_if_only_changed is set: same as old behavior (running will depend on run_if_changed or skip_if_only_changed).
  • May 14th, 2021: All components that interact with GitHub newly allow client-side throttling customization via --github-hourly-tokens and --github-allowed-burst parameters. A notable exception to this is Tide which has custom throttling logic and does not expose these two new options. Other existing custom options in branchprotector, peribolos, status-reconciler and needs-rebase (--tokens/--hourly-tokens etc.) are deprecated and will be removed in August 2021.
  • April 12th, 2021 End of grace period for storage bucket validation, additional buckets have to be allowed by adding them to the deck.additional_allowed_buckets list.
  • March 9th, 2021 Tide batchtesting will now continue to test a given batch even when more PRs became eligible while a test failed. You can disable this by setting tide.prioritize_existing_batches.<org or org/repo>: false in your Prow config.
  • March 3, 2021 plank.default_decoration_configs can optionally be replaced with plank.default_decoration_config_entries which supports a new format that is a slice of filters with associated decoration configs rather than a map. Currently entries can filter by repo and/or cluster. The old field is still supported and will not be deprecated.
  • February 23, 2021 New format introduced in plugins.yaml. Repos can be excluded from plugin definition at org level using excluded_repos notation. The previous format will be deprecated in July 2021, see kubernetes#20631.
  • November 2, 2020 Tide is now able to respect checkruns.
  • September 15, 2020 Added validation to Deck that will restrict artifact requests based on storage buckets. Opt-out by setting deck.skip_storage_path_validation in your Prow config. Buckets specified in job configs (<job>.gcs_configuration.bucket) and plank configs (plank.default_decoration_configs[*].gcs_configuration.bucket) are automatically allowed access. Additional buckets can be allowed by adding them to the deck.additional_allowed_buckets list. (This feature will be enabled by default ~Jan 2021. For now, you will begin to notice violation warnings in your logs.)
  • August 31th, 2020 Added gcs_browser_prefixes field in spyglass configuration. gcs_browser_prefix will be deprecated in February 2021. You can now specify different values for different repositories. The format should be in org, org/repo or '*' which is the default value.
  • July 13th, 2020 Configuring job_url_prefix_config with gcs/ prefix is now deprecated. Please configure a job url prefix without the gcs/ storage provider suffix. From now on the storage provider is appended automatically so multiple storage providers can be used for builds of the same repository. For now we still handle the old configuration format, this will be removed in September 2020. To be clear handling of URLs with /view/gcs in Deck is not deprecated.
  • June 23rd, 2020 An hmac tool was added to automatically reconcile webhooks and hmac tokens for the orgs and repos integrated with your prow instance.
  • June 8th, 2020 A new informer-based Plank implementation was added. It can be used by deploying the new prow-controller-manager binary. We plan to gradually move all our controllers into that binary, see kubernetes#17024
  • May 31, 2020 '--gcs-no-auth' in Deck is deprecated and not used anymore. We always fall back to an anonymous GCS client now, if all other options fail. This flag will be removed in July 2020.
  • May 25, 2020 Added --blob-storage-workers and --kubernetes-blob-storage-workers flags to crier. The flags --gcs-workers and --kubernetes-gcs-workers are now deprecated and will be removed in August 2020.
  • May 13, 2020 Added a decorate_all_jobs option to job configuration that allows to control whether jobs are decorated by default. Individual jobs can use the decorate option to override this setting.
  • March 25, 2020 Added a report_templates option to the Plank config that allows to specify different report templates for each organization or a specific repository. The report_template option is deprecated and it will be removed on September 2020 which is going to be replaced with the * value in report_templates.
  • January 03, 2020 Added a pr_status_base_urls option to the Tide config that allows to specify different tide's URL for each organization or a specific repository. The pr_status_base_url will be deprecated on June 2020 and it will be replaced with the * value in pr_status_base_urls.
  • November 05, 2019 The config-updater plugin supports update configs on build clusters by using clusters. The fields namespace and additional_namespaces are deprecated.
  • October 27, 2019 The trusted_org functionality in trigger is being deprecated in favour of being more explicit in the fact that org members or repo collaborators are the trusted users. This option will be removed completely in January 2020.
  • October 07, 2019 Added a default_decoration_configs option to the Plank config that allows to specify different plank's default configuration for each organization or a specific repository. default_decoration_config will be deprecated in April 2020 and it will be replaced with the * value in default_decoration_configs.
  • August 29, 2019 Added a batch_size_limit option to the Tide config that allows the batch size limit to be specified globally, per org, or per repo. Values default to 0 indicating no size limit. A value of -1 disables batches.
  • July 30, 2019 authorized_users in rerun_auth_config for deck will become github_users.
  • July 19, 2019 deck will soon remove its default value for --cookie-secret-file. If you set --oauth-url but not --cookie-secret-file, add --cookie-secret-file=/etc/cookie-secret to your deck instance. The default value will be removed at the end of October 2019.
  • July 2, 2019 prow defaults to report status for both presubmit and postsubmit jobs on GitHub now.
  • June 17, 2019 It is now possible to configure the channel for the Slack reporter directly on jobs via the .reporter_config.slack.channel config option
  • May 13, 2019 New plank config pod_running_timeout is added and defaulted to two days to allow plank abort pods stuck in running state.
  • April 25, 2019 --job-config in peribolos has never been used; it is deprecated and will be removed in July 2019. Remove the flag from any calls to the tool.
  • April 24, 2019 file_weight_count in blunderbuss is being deprecated in favour of the more current max_request_count functionality. Please ensure your configuration is up to date before the end of May 2019.
  • March 12, 2019 tide now records a history of its actions and exposes a filterable view of these actions at the /tide-history deck path.
  • March 9, 2019 prow components now support reading gzipped config files
  • February 13, 2019 prow (both plank and crier) can set status on the commit for postsubmit jobs on github now! Type of jobs can be reported to github is gated by a config field like 
    github_reporter:
  job_types_to_report:
  - presubmit
  - postsubmit
    now and default to report for presubmit only. *** The default will change in April to include postsubmit jobs as well *** You can also add skip_report: true to your post-submit jobs to skip reporting if you enable postsubmit reporting on.
  • January 15, 2019 approve now considers self-approval and github review state by default. Configure with require_self_approval and ignore_review_state. Temporarily revert to old defaults with use_deprecated_2018_implicit_self_approve_default_migrate_before_july_2019 and use_deprecated_2018_review_acts_as_approve_default_migrate_before_july_2019.
  • January 12, 2019 blunderbluss plugin now provides a new command, /auto-cc, that triggers automatic review requests.

Breaking changes

Breaking changes to external APIs (labels, GitHub interactions, configuration or deployment) will be documented in this section. Prow is in a pre-release state and no claims of backwards compatibility are made for any external API. Note: versions specified in these announcements may not include bug fixes made in more recent versions so it is recommended that the most recent versions are used when updating deployments.

  • February 22nd, 2022 Since prow version v20220222-acb5731b85, the entrypoint container in a prow job will run as --copy-mode-only, instead of /bin/cp /entrypoint /tools/entrypoint. Entrypoint images before the mentioned version will not work with --copy-mode-only, and entrypoint image since the mentioned version will not work with /bin/cp /entrypoint /tools/entrypoint. In another word, prow versions newer than or equal to v20220222-acb5731b85 will stop working with pod utilities versions older than v20220222-acb5731b85. If your prow instance is bumped by prow/cmd/generic-autobumper then you should not be affected.
  • February 22nd, 2022 Since prow version v20220222-acb5731b85, prow images pushed to gcr.io/k8s-prow will be built with ko, and the binaries will be placed under /ko-app/, for example /robots/commenter is pushed to gcr.io/k8s-prow/commenter, the commenter binary is located at /ko-app/commenter in the image, prow jobs that use this image will update to command: - /ko-app/commenter to make it work, alternatively, the command could also be command: - commenter as /ko-app is added to $PATH env var in the image.
  • February 22nd, 2022 Since prow version v20220222-acb5731b85, static files in deck image will be stored under /var/run/ko/ directory.
  • October 27th, 2021 The checkconfig flag --prow-yaml-repo-path no longer defaults to /home/prow/go/src/github.com/<< prow-yaml-repo-name >>/.prow.yaml when --prow-yaml-repo-name is set. The defaulting has instead been replaced with the assumption that the Prow YAML file/directory can be found in the current working directory if --prow-yaml-repo-path is not specified. If you are running checkconfig from a decorated ProwJobs as is typical, then this is already the case.
  • September 16th, 2021 The ProwJob CRD manifest has been extended to specify a schema. Unfortunately, this results in a huge manifest which in turn makes the standard kubectl apply fail, as the last-applied annotation it generates exceeds the maximum annotation size. If you are using Kubernetes 1.18 or newer, you can add the --server-side=true argument to work around this. If not, you can use a schemaless manifest
  • September 15th, 2021 autobump removed, please use generic-autobumper instead, see example config
  • April 16th, 2021 Flagutil remove default value for --github-token-path.

  • April 14th, 2021 Deck remove default value for --cookie-secret-file.
  • April 12th, 2021 Horologium now uses a cached client, which requires it to have watch permissions for Prowjobs on top of the already-required list and create.
  • April 11th, 2021 The plank binary has been removed. Please use the Prow Controller Manager instead, which provides a more modern implementation of the same functionality.
  • April 1st, 2021 The owners_dir_blacklist field in prow config has been deprecated in favor of owners_dir_denylist. The support of owners_dir_blacklist will be stopped in October 2021.
  • April 1st, 2021 The labels_blacklist field in verify-owners plugin config is deprecated in favor of labels_denylist. The support for labels_blacklist shall be stopped in October 2021.
  • January 24th, 2021 Planks Pod pending and Pod scheduling timeout defaults where changed from 24h each to the more reasonable 10 minutes/5 minutes, respectively.
  • January 1, 2021 Support for whitelist and branch_whitelist fields in Slack merge warning configuration is discontinued. You can use exempt_users and exempt_branches fields instead.
  • November 24, 2020 The requiresig plugin has been removed in favor of the require-matching-label plugin which provides equivalent functionality (example plugin config)
  • November 14, 2020 The whitelist and branch_whitelist fields in Slack merge warning were deprecated on August 22, 2020 in favor of the new exempt_users and exempt_branches fields. The support for these fields shall be stopped in January 2021.
  • November 11th, 2020 The prow-controller-manager and sinker now require RBAC to be set up to manage their leader lock in the coordination.k8s.io group. See here
  • November, 2020 The deprecated namespace and additional_namespaces properties have been removed from the config updater plugin for more details.

  • September 14th, 2020 Sinker now requires LIST and WATCH permissions for pods
  • September 2, 2020 The already deprecated namespace and additional_namespaces settings in the config updater will be removed in October, 2020
  • August 28, 2020 tide now ignores archived repositories in queries.
  • August 28, 2020 The Clusters format and associated --build-cluster flag has been removed.
  • August 24, 2020 The deprecated reporting functionality has been removed from Plank, use crier with --github-workers=1 instead Use a .kube/config with the --kubeconfig flag to specify credentials for external build clusters.
  • August 22, 2020 The whitelist and branch_whitelist fields in Slack merge warning are deprecated in favor of the new exempt_users and exempt_branches fields.
  • July 17, 2020 Slack reporter will no longer report all states of a Prow job if it has Channel specified on the Prow job config. Instead, it will report the job_states_to_report configured in the Prow job or in the Prow core config if the former does not exist.

  • March 27, 2020 The deprecated allow_cancellations option has been removed from Plank and the Jenkins operator.
  • March 19, 2020 The rerun_auth_config config field has been deprecated in favor of the new rerun_auth_configs field which allows configuration on a global, organization or repo level. rerun_auth_config will be removed in July 2020.
  • November 21, 2019 The boskos metrics component replaced the existing prometheus metrics with a single, label-qualified metric. Metrics are now served at /metrics on port 9090. This actually happened August 5th, but is being documented now. Details: kubernetes#13767
  • November 18, 2019 The mkbuild-cluster command-line utility and build-cluster format is deprecated and will be removed in May 2020. Use gencred and the kubeconfig format as an alternative.
  • November 14, 2019 The slack_reporter config field has been deprecated in favor of the new slack_reporter_configs field which allows configuration on a global, organization or repo level. slack_reporter will be removed in May 2020.

  • September 24, 2019 Sending an http GET request to the /hook endpoint now returns a 405 (Method Not Allowed) instead of a 200 (OK).
  • September 8, 2019 The deprecated job_url_prefix option has been removed from Plank.
  • May 2, 2019 All components exposing Prometheus metrics will now either push them to the Prometheus PushGateway, if configured, or serve them locally on port 9090 at /metrics, if not configured (the default).
  • April 26, 2019 blunderbuss, approve, and other plugins that read OWNERS now treat owners_dir_blacklist as a list of regular expressions matched against the entire (repository-relative) directory path of the OWNERS file rather than as a list of strings matched exactly against the basename only of the directory containing the OWNERS file.
  • April 2, 2019 hook, deck, horologium, tide, plank and sinker will no longer provide a default value for the --config-path flag. It is required to explicitly provide --config-path when upgrading to a new version of these components that were previously relying on the default --config-path=/etc/config/config.yaml.
  • March 29, 2019 Custom logos should be provided as full paths in the configuration under deck.branding.logos and will not implicitly be assumed to be under the static assets directory.
  • February 26, 2019 The job_url_prefix option from plank has been deprecated in favor of the new job_url_prefix_config option which allows configuration on a global, organization or repo level. job_url_prefix will be removed in September 2019.
  • February 13, 2019 horologium and sinker deployments will soon require --dry-run=false in production, please set this before March 15. At that time flag will default to --dry-run=true instead of --dry-run=false.
  • February 1, 2019 Now that hook and tide will no longer post "Skipped" statuses for jobs that do not need to run, it is not possible to require those statuses with branch protection. Therefore, it is necessary to run the branchprotector from at least version 510db59 before upgrading tide to that version.
  • February 1, 2019 horologium and sinker now support the --dry-run flag, so you must pass --dry-run=false to keep the previous behavior (see Feb 13 update).
  • January 31, 2019 sub no longer supports the --masterurl flag for connecting to the infrastructure cluster. Use --kubeconfig with --context for this.
  • January 31, 2019 crier no longer supports the --masterurl flag for connecting to the infrastructure cluster. Use --kubeconfig with --context for this.
  • January 27, 2019 Jobs that do not run will no longer post "Skipped" statuses.
  • January 27, 2019 Jobs that do not run always will no longer be required by branch protection as they will not always produce a status. They will continue to be required for merge by tide if they are configured as required.
  • January 27, 2019 All support for run_after_success jobs has been removed. Configuration of these jobs will continue to parse but will ignore the field.
  • January 27, 2019 hook will now correctly honor the run_always field on Gerrit presubmits. Previously, if this field was unset it would have defaulted to true; now, it will correctly default to false.
  • January 22, 2019 sinker prefers .kube/config instead of the custom Clusters file to specify credentials for external build clusters. The flag name has changed from --build-cluster to --kubeconfig. Migrate before June 2019.
  • November 29, 2018 plank will no longer default jobs with decorate: true to have automountServiceAccountToken: false in their PodSpec if unset, if the job explicitly sets serviceAccountName
  • November 26, 2018 job names must now match ^[A-Za-z0-9-._]+$. Jobs that did not match this before were allowed but did not provide a good user experience.
  • November 15, 2018 the hook service account now requires RBAC privileges to create ConfigMaps to support new functionality in the updateconfig plugin.
  • November 9, 2018 Prow gerrit client label/annotations now have a prow.k8s.io/ namespace prefix, if you have a gerrit deployment, please bump both cmd/gerrit and cmd/crier.
  • November 8, 2018 plank now defaults jobs with decorate: true to have automountServiceAccountToken: false in their PodSpec if unset. Jobs that used the default service account should explicitly set this field to maintain functionality.
  • October 16, 2018 Prow tls-cert management has been migrated from kube-lego to cert-manager.
  • October 12, 2018 Removed deprecated buildId environment variable from prow jobs. Use BUILD_ID.
  • October 3, 2018 -github-token-file replaced with -github-token-path for consistency with branchprotector and peribolos which were already using -github-token-path. -github-token-file will continue to work through the remainder of 2018, but it will be removed in early 2019. The following commands are affected: cherrypicker, hook, jenkins-operator, needs-rebase, phony, plank, refresh, and tide.
  • October 1, 2018 bazel is the one official way to build container images. Please use prow/bump.sh and/or bazel run //prow:release-push
  • Sep 27, 2018 If you are setting explicit decorate configs, the format has changed from 
    - name: job-foo
  decorate: true
  timeout: 1
    to 
    - name: job-foo
  decorate: true
  decoration_config:
    timeout: 1
  • September 24, 2018 the splice component has been deleted following the deletion of mungegithub.
  • July 9, 2018 milestone format has changed from 
    milestone:
 maintainers_id: <some_team_id>
 maintainers_team: <some_team_name>
    to repo_milestone 
    repo_milestone:
 <some_repo_name>:
   maintainers_id: <some_team_id>
   maintainers_team: <some_team_name>
  • July 2, 2018 the trigger plugin will now trust PRs from repo collaborators. Use only_org_members: true in the trigger config to temporarily disable this behavior.
  • June 14, 2018 the updateconfig plugin will only add data to your ConfigMaps using the basename of the updated file, instead of using that and also duplicating the data using the name of the ConfigMap as a key
  • June 1, 2018 all unquoted boolean fields in config.yaml that were unmarshall into type string now need to be quoted to avoid unmarshalling error.
  • May 9, 2018 deck logs for jobs run as Pods will now return logs for the "test" container only.
  • April 2, 2018 updateconfig format has been changed from 
    path/to/some/other/thing: configName
    to 
    path/to/some/other/thing:
  Name: configName
  # If unspecified, Namespace default to the value of ProwJobNamespace.
  Namespace: myNamespace
  • March 15, 2018 jenkins_operator is removed from the config in favor of jenkins_operators.
  • March 1, 2018 MilestoneStatus has been removed from the plugins Configuration in favor of the Milestone which is shared between two plugins: 1) milestonestatus and 2) milestone. The milestonestatus plugin now uses the Milestone object to get the maintainers team ID
  • February 27, 2018 jenkins-operator does not use $BUILD_ID as a fallback to $PROW_JOB_ID anymore.
  • February 15, 2018 jenkins-operator can now accept the --tot-url flag and will use the connection to tot to vend build identifiers as plank does, giving control over where in GCS artifacts land to Prow and away from Jenkins. Furthermore, the $BUILD_ID variable in Jenkins jobs will now correctly point to the build identifier vended by tot and a new variable, $PROW_JOB_ID, points to the identifier used to link ProwJobs to Jenkins builds. $PROW_JOB_ID fallbacks to $BUILD_ID for backwards-compatibility, ie. to not break in-flight jobs during the time of the jenkins-operator update.
  • February 1, 2018 The config_updater section in plugins.yaml now uses a maps object instead of config_file, plugin_file strings. Please switch over before July.
  • November 30, 2017 If you use tide, you'll need to switch your query format and bump all prow component versions to reflect the changes in #5754.
  • November 14, 2017 horologium:0.17 fixes cron job not being scheduled.
  • November 10, 2017 If you want to use cron feature in prow, you need to bump to: hook:0.181, sinker:0.23, deck:0.62, splice:0.32, horologium:0.15 plank:0.60, jenkins-operator:0.57 and tide:0.12 to avoid error spamming from the config parser.
  • November 7, 2017 plank:0.56 fixes bug introduced in plank:0.53 that affects controllers using an empty kubernetes selector.
  • November 7, 2017 jenkins-operator:0.51 provides jobs with the $BUILD_ID variable as well as the $buildId variable. The latter is deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
  • November 6, 2017 plank:0.55 provides Pods with the $BUILD_ID variable as well as the $BUILD_NUMBER variable. The latter is deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
  • November 3, 2017 Added EmptyDir volume type. To update to hook:0.176+ or horologium:0.11+ the following components must have the associated minimum versions: deck:0.58+, plank:0.54+, jenkins-operator:0.50+.
  • November 2, 2017 plank:0.53 changes the type label key to prow.k8s.io/type and the job annotation key to prow.k8s.io/job added in pods.
  • October 14, 2017 deck:0:53+ needs to be updated in conjunction with jenkins-operator:0:48+ since Jenkins logs are now exposed from the operator and deck needs to use the external_agent_logs option in order to redirect requests to the location jenkins-operator exposes logs.
  • October 13, 2017 hook:0.174, plank:0.50, and jenkins-operator:0.47 drop the deprecated github-bot-name flag.
  • October 2, 2017 hook:0.171: The label plugin was split into three plugins (label, sigmention, milestonestatus). Breaking changes:
    • The configuration key for the milestone maintainer team's ID has been changed. Previously the team ID was stored in the plugins config at key label>>milestone_maintainers_id. Now that the milestone status labels are handled in the milestonestatus plugin instead of the label plugin, the team ID is stored at key milestonestatus>>maintainers_id.
    • The sigmention and milestonestatus plugins must be enabled on any repos that require them since their functionality is no longer included in the label plugin.
  • September 3, 2017 sinker:0.17 now deletes pods labeled by plank:0.42 in order to avoid cleaning up unrelated pods that happen to be found in the same namespace prow runs pods. If you run other pods in the same namespace, you will have to manually delete or label the prow-owned pods, otherwise you can bulk-label all of them with the following command and let sinker collect them normally: 
    kubectl label pods --all -n pod_namespace created-by-prow=true
  • September 1, 2017 deck:0.44 and jenkins-operator:0.41 controllers no longer provide a default value for the --jenkins-token-file flag. Cluster administrators should provide --jenkins-token-file=/etc/jenkins/jenkins explicitly when upgrading to a new version of these components if they were previously relying on the default. For more context, please see this pull request.
  • August 29, 2017 Configuration specific to plugins is now held in the plugins ConfigMap and serialized in this repo in the plugins.yaml file. Cluster administrators upgrading to hook:0.148 or newer should move plugin configuration from the main ConfigMap. For more context, please see this pull request.
