Walkthrough

Adds documentation and configuration for a new OpenShift plugin command: 3rd-operator-imagebuild. This command pulls an unmerged PR, builds an operator image using Podman, and optionally pushes the image to Quay.io. Updates plugin registry and documentation files.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
New command documentation and registration PLUGINS.md, docs/data.json, plugins/openshift/commands/3rd-operator-imagebuild.md	Added new OpenShift plugin command entry with argument hints, description, and detailed workflow documentation. Documents PR parsing, prerequisites verification, repository cloning, PR checkout, Dockerfile discovery, image tagging logic, build process with linux/amd64 platform, optional Quay.io push, and error handling scenarios.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 2 (Simple) | ⏱️ ~8 minutes

• Straightforward documentation additions across three files with consistent, repetitive structure
• New command declaration follows existing patterns in the data.json structure
• Documentation file is self-contained with clear workflow description and no external dependencies

Hi @chao007. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a github.com member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)

plugins/openshift/commands/3rd-operator-imagebuild.md (3)

14-22: Add guidance on critical prerequisites.

The description mentions this command is useful for building and testing operator images, but doesn't highlight that the gh CLI must be authenticated with GitHub. This is essential for PR operations. Consider adding a prerequisite note in the Description or Step 2 to help users troubleshoot authentication failures upfront.

---

52-66: Clarify repository behavior and cleanup expectations.

After execution, the cloned repository persists in the current directory. Users should be aware this modifies their working directory and may want guidance on cleanup or using a dedicated workspace. Consider adding a note about the git branches created (test-pr-*) that should be deleted afterward.

---

106-127: Hardcoded platform flag may limit cross-platform usability.

Line 117 specifies --platform=linux/amd64 as a fixed build target. For users on non-x86_64 systems or those needing arm64 images, this is inflexible. Consider documenting whether the command supports platform overrides or if this is intentional for standardization.

🔇 Additional comments (2)

PLUGINS.md (1)

229-229: Entry properly placed and formatted.

The command is correctly registered in the OpenShift Plugin section with consistent formatting and accurate metadata matching the documentation and registry.

docs/data.json (1)

607-612: JSON syntax validation and entry consistency require direct file access.

The command entry in the snippet appears syntactically sound with proper indentation and comma placement. Metadata fields (argument_hint, description, name, synopsis) are present and follow the expected structure consistent with adjacent entries. However, validation of the JSON file's overall syntax and confirmation of this entry's correct positioning in the commands array cannot be completed without access to the full file.
