operator-sdk bundle validate
operator-sdk bundle validate
Validate an operator bundle
Synopsis
The ‘operator-sdk bundle validate’ command can validate both content and format of an operator bundle image or an operator bundle directory on-disk containing operator metadata and manifests. This command will exit with an exit code of 1 if any validation errors arise, and 0 if only warnings arise or all validators pass.
A valid bundle is defined by the bundle spec (linked below), therefore the default validator ensures a bundle conforms to that spec. If you want to ensure that your bundle is valid for an optional superset of requirements such as to those required to publish your operator on operatorhub.io, then you will need to run one or more supported optional validators. Set ‘–list-optional’ to list which optional validators are supported, and how they are grouped by label.
More information about operator bundles and metadata: https://github.com/operator-framework/operator-registry/blob/master/docs/design/operator-bundle.md
NOTE: if validating an image, the image must exist in a remote registry, not just locally.

Examples
This example assumes you either have a *pullable* bundle image,
or something similar to the following operator bundle layout present locally:
$ tree ./bundle
./bundle
├── manifests
│ ├── cache.my.domain_memcacheds.yaml
│ └── memcached-operator.clusterserviceversion.yaml
└── metadata
└── annotations.yaml
To validate a local bundle:
$ operator-sdk bundle validate ./bundle
To build and validate a *pullable* bundle image:
$ operator-sdk bundle validate <some-registry>/<operator-bundle-name>:<tag>
To list and run optional validators, which are specified by a label selector:
$ operator-sdk bundle validate --list-optional
NAME LABELS DESCRIPTION
operatorhub name=operatorhub OperatorHub.io metadata validation
suite=operatorframework
To validate a bundle with a superset of requirements for Operator Framework:
$ operator-sdk bundle validate ./bundle --select-optional suite=operatorframework
To validate a bundle with a superset of requirements for operatorhub.io specifically:
$ operator-sdk bundle validate ./bundle --select-optional name=operatorhub
Options
-h, --help help for validate
-b, --image-builder string Tool to pull and unpack bundle images. Only used when validating a bundle image. One of: [docker, podman, none] (default "docker")
--list-optional List all optional validators available. When set, no validators will be run
--select-optional string Label selector to select optional validators to run. Run this command with '--list-optional' to list available optional validators
