<p>I have environment where I can simply push images(created with Jib) to local repository. I want to now to be able to deploy this on kubernetes, but from the "safety" of maven. </p>

<p>I know I can spin some Skaffold magic, but I don't like to have it installed separately. Is there some Jib-Skaffold workflow I can use to continuously force Skaffold to redeploy on source change(without running it in command line)</p>

<p>Is there some Skaffold plugin? I really like what they have <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6gR_Cv4yWI&amp;t=1219s" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>, but proposed kubernetes-dev-maven-plugin is probably internal only.</p>

<p>Skaffold can <a href="https://skaffold.dev/docs/workflows/dev/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">monitor your local code and detect changes that will trigger a build and deployment</a> in your cluster. This is built-in on Skaffold using the <code>dev</code> mode so it solves the <em>redeploy on source change</em> part.</p>

<p>As for the workflow, Jib is a <a href="https://skaffold.dev/docs/pipeline-stages/builders/jib/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">supported builder for Skaffold</a> so the same dynamic applies.</p>

<p>Although these features automate the tasks, it is still necessary to run it once with <code>skaffold dev</code> and let it run in the "background".</p>
