Run Kubernetes Pod

What it does

This action runs a Pod on a Kubernetes cluster. Pods are the smallest deployable units of computing that can be created and managed in Kubernetes. They are most often used in CI/CD workflows for database migrations.

How it works

This action executes kubectl apply against a K8s cluster to run a pob using provided YAML. Then, it runs kubectl describe to check if the pod was completed and with what result (up to 90 minutes).
