DigitalOcean Trigger

DigitalOcean Trigger
Certified
Fire an execution when a new DigitalOcean droplet appears

Polls the account's droplet list at each interval and fires once per newly-appeared droplet id. The first evaluation only establishes the baseline of existing droplet ids and does not fire. Only one new droplet is reported per poll; if several droplets appear between polls, the rest are reported on the following polls.

This trigger is at-least-once: a droplet id missing from a single poll (a transient gap from DigitalOcean's eventual consistency, or a short page) is tolerated for up to 3 consecutive polls before it is dropped from the watermark, so it does not re-fire once the listing catches up. The watermark is stored under a Kestra namespace KV key prefixed digitalocean_droplet_trigger_; do not delete it manually, as doing so re-establishes the baseline and skips whatever is already on the account at that point.

Examples

React whenever a new droplet is created on the account

yaml
id: digitalocean_on_new_droplet
namespace: company.team

triggers:
  - id: on_new_droplet
    type: io.kestra.plugin.digitalocean.droplet.Trigger
    apiToken: "{{ secret('DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN') }}"
    interval: PT5M

tasks:
  - id: handle_new_droplet
    type: io.kestra.plugin.core.log.Log
    message: "New droplet: {{ trigger.name }} ({{ trigger.id }}) in {{ trigger.region }}"

Properties

apiToken *string

DigitalOcean API token

Personal access token used to authenticate against the DigitalOcean API v2, sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>. Create one (prefixed dop_v1_) in the DigitalOcean control panel under API > Tokens, and store it as a Kestra secret.

allowConcurrent boolean

Defaultfalse

Specifies whether a trigger is allowed to start a new execution even if a previous run is still in progress.

baseUrl string

Defaulthttps://api.digitalocean.com

DigitalOcean API base URL

Base endpoint for all DigitalOcean API calls. Defaults to https://api.digitalocean.com.

interval string

DefaultPT5M

Formatduration

How often to check for new droplets

ISO-8601 duration. Defaults to PT5M.

options

HTTP client options

Optional HTTP configuration (timeouts, proxy, SSL) applied to every DigitalOcean API call.

Definitions

io.kestra.core.http.client.configurations.HttpConfiguration

allowFailedbooleanstring

Defaultfalse

If true, allow a failed response code (response code >= 400)

allowedResponseCodesarray

SubTypeinteger

List of response code allowed for this request

auth

The authentication to use.

io.kestra.core.http.client.configurations.BasicAuthConfiguration

type*object

passwordstring

The password for HTTP basic authentication.

usernamestring

The username for HTTP basic authentication.

io.kestra.core.http.client.configurations.BearerAuthConfiguration

type*object

tokenstring

The token for bearer token authentication.

io.kestra.core.http.client.configurations.DigestAuthConfiguration

type*object

passwordstring

The password for HTTP Digest authentication.

usernamestring

The username for HTTP Digest authentication.

defaultCharsetstring

DefaultUTF-8

The default charset for the request.

java.nio.charset.Charset

enabledTcpExtendedKeepAlivebooleanstring

Defaulttrue

Whether to enable TCP Keep-Alive extended socket options (TCP_KEEPIDLE, TCP_KEEPINTERVAL, TCP_KEEPCOUNT).

Set to false when running on Windows workers, as these extended socket options are not supported by the Windows JDK and will cause connection failures.

followRedirectsbooleanstring

Defaulttrue

Whether redirects should be followed automatically.

logsarray

SubTypestring

Possible Values

REQUEST_HEADERSREQUEST_BODYRESPONSE_HEADERSRESPONSE_BODY

The enabled log.

proxy

The proxy configuration.

io.kestra.core.http.client.configurations.ProxyConfiguration

addressstring

The address of the proxy server.

passwordstring

The password for proxy authentication.

portintegerstring

The port of the proxy server.

typestring

DefaultDIRECT

Possible Values

DIRECTHTTPSOCKS

The type of proxy to use.

usernamestring

The username for proxy authentication.

ssl

The SSL request options

io.kestra.core.http.client.configurations.SslOptions

insecureTrustAllCertificatesbooleanstring

Whether to disable checking of the remote SSL certificate.

Only applies if no trust store is configured. Note: This makes the SSL connection insecure and should only be used for testing. If you are using a self-signed certificate, set up a trust store instead.

timeout

The timeout configuration.

io.kestra.core.http.client.configurations.TimeoutConfiguration

connectTimeoutstring

The time allowed to establish a connection to the server before failing.

readIdleTimeoutstring

DefaultPT5M

The time allowed for a read connection to remain idle before closing it.

stopAfter array

SubTypestring

Possible Values

CREATEDSUBMITTEDRUNNINGPAUSEDRESTARTEDKILLINGSUCCESSWARNINGFAILEDKILLEDCANCELLEDQUEUEDRETRYINGRETRIEDSKIPPEDBREAKPOINTRESUBMITTED

List of execution states after which a trigger should be stopped (a.k.a. disabled).

when string

Defaulttrue

A condition that determines whether the trigger should run.

A Pebble expression evaluated at trigger time. The trigger fires only when the expression evaluates to a truthy value (true, a non-empty string, a non-zero number). Use this to gate trigger execution on dynamic runtime values such as execution labels, flow variables, or environment conditions.

Outputs

createdAt string

Formatdate-time

Creation timestamp

id integer

Droplet ID

name string

Droplet name

region string

Region slug

status string

Droplet status at detection time
