tkn-watch is a simple extension to the tkn command line tool that watches a PipelineRuns and exit with the PipelineRun status.
It mimics the behaviour of GitHub cli run watch command.

* there is some issues with the binary generated for m1 macOS, your best bet is to use the cargo method *
Go to the release page and grab the archive or package targeting your platform.
shell
brew tap chmouel/tkn-watch https://github.com/chmouel/tkn-watch
brew install tkn-watch
shell
cargo install tkn-watch
With your favourite aurhelper for example yay :
shell
yay -S tkn-watch-bin
shell
docker run -i ghcr.io/chmouel/tkn-watch # don't forget to bind your kubeconfig
shell
% tkn watch <pipelinerun-name>
If you don't have tkn cli installed you can call the plug-in directly with tkn-watch
If you don't specify a PipelineRun it will ask you nicely for a running Pipelinerun to watch.
When you give the flag -l/--last tkn-watch will use the last PipelineRun started.
You can use the flag -n to specify another namespace than the current one.
You can adjust the time to wait between checks with the flag -r/--refresh-seconds, the default is 3 seconds.
tkn watch exit with the pipelinerun status, so you can do fancy things like (on macOS):
shell
tkn watch -l || osascript -e 'display notification "PipelineRun Has Failed :("' && osascript -e 'display notification "PipelineRun Has Succeeded, time to commit again :)"'
