Issue

I was setting up a Drone pipeline and got an error: yaml:missing kind attribute.This is my .drone.yml file.

kind: pipeline
type: kubernetes
name: monorepo

clone:
  depth: 1

steps:
- name: Build1
  image: gradle:jdk8
  environment:
    TOKEN:
      from_secret: TEST_TOKEN

---
kind: secret
name: TEST_TOKEN
get:
  path: secrets/TEST_TOKEN
  name: TEST_TOKEN
---

Resolution

Remove ‘- - -’ from the last line of the yaml file. ‘- - -’ is a delimiter between the stages, so the drone expects to find another stage after that line.
