Configure a GitHub artifact account

Configure a GitHub artifact account so that Spinnaker can download files from GitHub.

Prerequisites

• You need a GitHub account.

Downloading credentials

Start by generating an access token for GitHub. The token requires the repo scope.

Place the token in a file ($TOKEN_FILE) readable by Halyard:

echo $TOKEN > $TOKEN_FILE

Editing your artifact settings

All that’s required are the following values:

# See the prerequisites section above
TOKEN_FILE=
ARTIFACT_ACCOUNT_NAME=my-github-artifact-account

First, enable artifact support .

Next, enable the GitHub artifact provider:

hal config artifact github enable

Next, add an artifact account:

hal config artifact github account add $ARTIFACT_ACCOUNT_NAME \
    --token-file $TOKEN_FILE

There are more options described here if you need more control over your configuration.
