Trigger on Bun script condition

Polls by running an inline Bun script in a container (default image oven/bun) and emits when exitCondition matches. Edge mode (the default) emits only on a transition from not matching to matching, remembering the previous result in the namespace KV store. Polls every 60s by default. Accepts 'exit N' or a regex (fallback substring) matched against emitted vars; a failed run has no vars, so only 'exit N' can match a failure.

yaml
type: io.kestra.plugin.scripts.bun.ScriptTrigger

Trigger when the script fails with an implicit error (exit 1).

Properties

Condition to match

Rendered condition evaluated after each execution; the trigger emits only when it matches. 'exit N' compares the exit code, otherwise the string is used as a regex (or substring fallback) against emitted vars (from ::{"outputs": ...}::). On a failed run no vars are available to match against, so only an 'exit N' condition can match a failure.

Inline Bun script

Multi-line script executed on each poll, with the same semantics as the Bun Script task.

Defaultfalse

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

Defaultoven/bun

Container image for script execution

Image used by the Script task to run the inline Bun script; defaults to 'oven/bun'. Provide an image that includes the Bun runtime.

Defaulttrue

Edge trigger mode

When true (default), emit only on a transition from not matching to matching, so a condition that stays true does not fire on every poll. The previous result is kept in the namespace KV store, keyed by flow and trigger id. When false, emit on every poll that matches.

DefaultPT1M
Formatduration

Check interval

Interval between polls; default PT60S. The scheduler uses this to schedule the next evaluation.

SubTypestring
Possible Values
CREATEDSUBMITTEDRUNNINGPAUSEDRESTARTEDKILLINGSUCCESSWARNINGFAILEDKILLEDCANCELLEDQUEUEDRETRYINGRETRIEDSKIPPEDBREAKPOINTRESUBMITTED

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

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.

Rendered condition

Rendered value of the exitCondition property for this poll.

Script exit code

Exit code returned by the Bun process (may be null if not available).

Formatdate-time

Timestamp of the event that fired the trigger

Script vars

Vars produced by the task (e.g. via ::{"outputs": {...}}:: convention). This is the main structured way to evaluate non-exit conditions on successful runs.
