OpenFaaS Kaniko Jenkins Pipelines Gist

        stage("shrinkwrap")  {
            container("faascli") {
                sh "apk add --no-cache git"

                // See also: https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/kaniko#pushing-to-different-registries
                withEnv(['PATH+EXTRA=/busybox:/kaniko']) {
                    
                  sh '''#!/busybox/sh
                  /kaniko/executor -c /home/jenkins/workspace/Kaniko/build/timezone-shift --no-push
                  '''

Looks like an issue with kaniko:debug container:
`docker run -it --entrypoint /busybox/sh gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor:debug

/ # ls

ls: can't open '.': Value too large for defined data type`

The same happens on k8s.
Probably related to this: GoogleContainerTools/distroless#225

So the container just can't read the filesystem

Thank you so much for helping. I have this working now and have edited the text. How does it look at your end now?

Well, I didn't really help I believe. Just stumbled on a different problem. :)
Anyway - it was a small attempt to return a favour - your tutorials have helped me quite a number of times.
Sadly still doesn't work for me because of the same issue:

ls: can't open '/home/jenkins/workspace/': Value too large for defined data type
total 0
Error: error resolving dockerfile path: please provide a valid path to a Dockerfile within the build context with --dockerfile
Usage:

Hi just curious, how to build the image with kaniko, if we don't use --no-push? I still get confused how to build and push the image to registry (eg. Google Container Registry)
