CERTSA-25: run preflight container check as part of the release process by itroyano · Pull Request #207 · redhat-openshift-ecosystem/operator-certification-operator

itroyano · 2026-09-24T08:59:57Z

Summary by CodeRabbit

Chores
- Release builds run an automated certification check on the published operator image. For release-triggered builds, certification information is submitted; if validation fails, the workflow stops and reports the error.

coderabbitai · 2026-09-24T09:00:05Z

Walkthrough

The release workflow installs the Preflight CLI and checks the pushed operator image. Release events add submission and certification arguments. The workflow validates the check result and the generated results file.

Changes

Preflight certification

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Install and check the image `.github/workflows/build-release.yml`	The workflow sets the Preflight CLI version, installs the CLI, and checks the pushed operator image. Release events submit results with the configured Pyxis token and certification component ID. The step fails if the command fails, the results file is missing, or its `.passed` value is not `"true"`.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 979be

The new release gate looks for Preflight results in the wrong location, so even passing image checks will fail the release job and block bundle builds. Correct the results path before merging.

@itroyano You can use this as a reference for checking the Preflight results. The current workflow only checks Preflight's exit code, we should check both. Since this is a single-arch image, checking the generated results.json with jq for .passed should be enough before moving on to building the bundle.

Check the architecture-specific results path.

Preflight 1.20.0 and 1.21.0 write container results to artifacts/<architecture>/results.json, not artifacts/results.json. For a successful single-architecture check, Line 94 therefore takes the missing-file branch and stops the release before Build Bundle. Set RESULTS_FILE to the checked architecture’s path.

This is correct, this needs to be artifacts/amd64/results.json, since this container is a single arch, we should probably add the --platform=amd64 before line 84 (or on 84, however you see this).

@acornett21, agreed. Set RESULTS_FILE to artifacts/amd64/results.json and add --platform=amd64 to preflight check container. This keeps the checked platform and the results path consistent.

preflight check container \ "${OPERATOR_IMAGE}" \ --platform=amd64 \ "${PREFLIGHT_ARGS[@]}" \ --loglevel=debug RESULTS_FILE="artifacts/amd64/results.json"

Thanks for clarifying that this is a single-architecture image.
