## Using this repository for your Gitlab CI/CD Jobs.
|
||||
|
||||
This repository has been designed as a central point for your repositories CI/CD jobs. By simply linking this repository to your repository and configuring, your CI/CD jobs will run as part of the build process, whilst keeping any CI/CD commits limited within your git history.
|
||||
|
||||
Each CI/CD job is contained within its own sub-folder. Each sub-folder has a readme specific to the job, which includes the details on how to implement, use etc.
|
||||
|
||||
For further details on using these templates with your Gitlab CI/CD jobs, pleaase view the [documentation](https://nofusscomputing.com/projects/gitlab-ci).

|
||||
We also tag each branch to denote the version of release. We use our own repo to do the version increment automagically in line with [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/).

|
||||
### CI Stages
|
||||
The CI stages for these jobs are as follows, and in the order expected by the jobs:
|
||||
|
||||
- validation
|
||||
> validation of files, commits, Merge Request titles, code quality, license checks.
|
||||
|
||||
- build
|
||||
> build any binaries or files that would be used in the later stages .
|
||||
|
||||
- prepare
|
||||
> any jobs that must run after build but before testing. for example a docker image build that includes artifacts from the build job
|
||||
|
||||
- test
|
||||
> unit, functional, integration and any other tests.
|
||||
|
||||
- release
|
||||
> git tagging and creating a gitlab release. Also includes adding build artifacts to gitlab registry.
|
||||
|
||||
- sync
|
||||
> repository synchronization, i.e. push mirror to github.
|
||||
|
||||
- publish
|
||||
> placement of build objects to external sources

|
||||
| *Use a project import in your `.gitlab-ci.yml` file that is tied to a specific `ref`. for example a commit or tag. Also ensure that the `gitlab-ci` `git sub-module` and the `ref` as part of the includes matches.* |
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Artifacts
|
||||
Any artifacts by jobs will be created in folders named after the stage.
|
||||
|
||||
preference is placed on jobs to output JUnit.xml test reports. This is because they are visible in merge requests.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Git Sub-Module setup
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended that you set-up this repo as a git sub-module to your repo and that you configure it to a set commit/tag. This ensures that any change to `gitlab-ci` repo, does not effect your CI/CD jobs.
|
||||
|
||||
run the following commands:
|
||||
``` bash
|
||||
git submodule add -b {ref} https://gitlab.com/nofusscomputing/projects/gitlab-ci.git gitlab-ci
|
||||
git submodule update --remote
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
| :bulb: Tip |
|
||||
|:-----|
|
||||
| NOTE: `{ref}` should be replaced with the branch name, `master` is the stable branch and recommended. by default the sub-module will be created in folder `gitlab-ci`, it is recommended that you **don't** change this folder name.
|
||||
You can also substitute the gitlab url with the github url `https://github.com/NoFussComputing/gitlab-ci.git` for the submodule if you desire. this repo is auto-synced with github on each change to the repo. |
|
||||
|
||||
After each `git submodule update --remote` you will have to commit the sub-module update to your repo. Suggested commands as follows:
|
||||
``` bash
|
||||
git add .gitmodules
|
||||
|
||||
git add gitlab-ci
|
||||
|
||||
git commit -m "ci(gitlab-ci): updated to use version x
|
||||
|
||||
{your reason here or explain what is provided/changed}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
Then push the changes to your source.
