Trigger a flow when Go commands match a condition

Polls and triggers a flow by running Go commands within a script container.

yaml
type: io.kestra.plugin.scripts.go.CommandsTrigger

Trigger when commands fail with an implicit error (exit 1).

triggers:
  - id: commands_failure

    edge: true
    containerImage: golang
    commands:

Go commands to execute

Commands executed on each poll (same semantics as the Go Commands task).

Condition to match

Condition evaluated after each commands execution. The trigger emits an event only when this condition matches.

Supported forms:

  • 'exit N' (example: 'exit 1'): matches when the process exit code equals N.
  • Any other string: treated as a regex (or substring if regex is invalid) matched against:
    • the task 'vars' (when commands emit ::{"outputs": ...}::),
    • and error logs when the task fails (TaskException).
Defaultfalse

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

Defaultgolang

Docker image used to execute the commands

Container image used by the underlying Commands task to run Go commands. Defaults to 'golang'.

Defaulttrue

Edge trigger mode

If true, the trigger emits only on a transition from 'not matching' to 'matching' (anti-spam). If false, the trigger emits on every poll where the condition matches.

DefaultPT1M
Formatduration

Check interval

Interval between polling evaluations.

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.

Commands exit code

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

Formatdate-time

Timestamp of the event that fired the trigger

Commands vars

Vars produced by the task (e.g. via ::{"outputs": {...}}:: convention).
