CI/CD Automation in Tekton

Is it possible to enable CI/CD automation using Tekton Pipeline ? I have my project in GitHub repo. and whenever I make a change, I want to perform the build and deployment in Kubernetes automatically? I came across Prow, Trigger etc. If anyone could share the pros and cons and the best approach, that would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

Also, are there any tekton trigger example that triggers the build when a github commit is done?

Sure! Have a look at the official repo: https://github.com/tektoncd/triggers/tree/master/examples/github

Version 0.6.0 introduced interceptors for github and bitbucket, for example an eventlistener for github webhook:

apiVersion: triggers.tekton.dev/v1alpha1
kind: EventListener
metadata:
  name: github-listener-interceptor
spec:
  triggers:
    - name: github-listener
      interceptors:
        - github:
            secretRef:
              secretName: github-secret
              secretKey: secretToken
            eventTypes:
              - pull_request
        - cel:
            filter: "body.action in ['opened', 'synchronize', 'reopened']"
      bindings:
        - ref: github-pr-binding
      template:
        ref: github-template

Yes, Tekton Pipelines is a controller for implementing CI/CD pipelines in Kubernetes using CRDs.

I have my project in GitHub repo. and whenever I make a change, I want to perform the build and deployment in Kubernetes automatically?

Yes, with Tekton Triggers you can setup a webhook from GitHub that triggers a new run of your CI/CD pipeline each time you "make a change" in your git repository.

Prow is a group of tools used for build automation within the Kubernetes project, they are a bit complex to use for a custom app project. One of the components is a ChatOps tool, that can trigger build pipelines using chat-commands in comments to GitHub pull-requests. Jenkins X is also adopting ChatOps functionality.
