# Pipelines settings
|
|
|
|
To reach the pipelines settings navigate to your project's
|
|
**Settings > CI/CD**.
|
|
|
|
The following settings can be configured per project.
|
|
|
|
<i class="fa fa-youtube-play youtube" aria-hidden="true"></i>
|
|
For an overview, watch the video [GitLab CI Pipeline, Artifacts, and Environments](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCKDICEe10s).
|
|
Watch also [GitLab CI pipeline tutorial for beginners](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jav4vbUrqII).
|
|
|
|
## Git strategy
|
|
|
|
With Git strategy, you can choose the default way your repository is fetched
|
|
from GitLab in a job.
|
|
|
|
There are two options. Using:
|
|
|
|
- `git clone`, which is slower since it clones the repository from scratch
|
|
for every job, ensuring that the local working copy is always pristine.
|
|
- `git fetch`, which is faster as it re-uses the local working copy (falling
|
|
back to clone if it doesn't exist).
|
|
|
|
The default Git strategy can be overridden by the [GIT_STRATEGY variable](../../../ci/yaml/README.md#git-strategy)
|
|
in `.gitlab-ci.yml`.
|
|
|
|
## Git shallow clone
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/merge_requests/28919) in GitLab 12.0.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: **Note**:
|
|
As of GitLab 12.0, newly created projects will automatically have a default
|
|
`git depth` value of `50`.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to limit the number of changes that GitLab CI/CD will fetch when cloning
|
|
a repository. Setting a limit to `git depth` can speed up Pipelines execution. Maximum
|
|
allowed value is `1000`.
|
|
|
|
To disable shallow clone and make GitLab CI/CD fetch all branches and tags each time,
|
|
keep the value empty or set to `0`.
|
|
|
|
This value can also be [overridden by `GIT_DEPTH`](../../../ci/large_repositories/index.md#shallow-cloning) variable in `.gitlab-ci.yml` file.
|
|
|
|
## Timeout
|
|
|
|
Timeout defines the maximum amount of time in minutes that a job is able run.
|
|
This is configurable under your project's **Settings > CI/CD > General pipelines settings**.
|
|
The default value is 60 minutes. Decrease the time limit if you want to impose
|
|
a hard limit on your jobs' running time or increase it otherwise. In any case,
|
|
if the job surpasses the threshold, it is marked as failed.
|
|
|
|
### Timeout overriding on Runner level
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/merge_requests/17221) in GitLab 10.7.
|
|
|
|
Project defined timeout (either specific timeout set by user or the default
|
|
60 minutes timeout) may be [overridden on Runner level](../../../ci/runners/README.html#setting-maximum-job-timeout-for-a-runner).
|
|
|
|
## Maximum artifacts size **(CORE ONLY)**
|
|
|
|
For information about setting a maximum artifact size for a project, see
|
|
[Maximum artifacts size](../../admin_area/settings/continuous_integration.md#maximum-artifacts-size-core-only).
|
|
|
|
## Custom CI configuration path
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/merge_requests/12509) in GitLab 9.4.
|
|
|
|
By default we look for the `.gitlab-ci.yml` file in the project's root
|
|
directory. If you require a different location **within** the repository,
|
|
you can set a custom path that will be used to look up the configuration file,
|
|
this path should be **relative** to the root.
|
|
|
|
Here are some valid examples:
|
|
|
|
- `.gitlab-ci.yml`
|
|
- `.my-custom-file.yml`
|
|
- `my/path/.gitlab-ci.yml`
|
|
- `my/path/.my-custom-file.yml`
|
|
|
|
The path can be customized at a project level. To customize the path:
|
|
|
|
1. Go to the project's **Settings > CI / CD**.
|
|
1. Expand the **General pipelines** section.
|
|
1. Provide a value in the **Custom CI configuration path** field.
|
|
1. Click **Save changes**.
|
|
|
|
## Test coverage parsing
|
|
|
|
If you use test coverage in your code, GitLab can capture its output in the
|
|
job log using a regular expression. In the pipelines settings, search for the
|
|
"Test coverage parsing" section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Leave blank if you want to disable it or enter a ruby regular expression. You
|
|
can use <https://rubular.com> to test your regex.
|
|
|
|
If the pipeline succeeds, the coverage is shown in the merge request widget and
|
|
in the jobs table.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A few examples of known coverage tools for a variety of languages can be found
|
|
in the pipelines settings page.
|
|
|
|
### Removing color codes
|
|
|
|
Some test coverage tools output with ANSI color codes that won't be
|
|
parsed correctly by the regular expression and will cause coverage
|
|
parsing to fail.
|
|
|
|
If your coverage tool doesn't provide an option to disable color
|
|
codes in the output, you can pipe the output of the coverage tool through a
|
|
small one line script that will strip the color codes off.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
lein cloverage | perl -pe 's/\e\[?.*?[\@-~]//g'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Visibility of pipelines
|
|
|
|
Pipeline visibility is determined by:
|
|
|
|
- Your current [user access level](../../permissions.md).
|
|
- The **Public pipelines** project setting under your project's **Settings > CI/CD > General pipelines**.
|
|
|
|
This also determines the visibility of these related features:
|
|
|
|
- Job output logs
|
|
- Job artifacts
|
|
- The [pipeline security dashboard](../../application_security/security_dashboard/index.md#pipeline-security-dashboard) **(ULTIMATE)**
|
|
|
|
If **Public pipelines** is enabled (default):
|
|
|
|
- For **public** projects, anyone can view the pipelines and related features.
|
|
- For **internal** projects, any logged in user can view the pipelines
|
|
and related features.
|
|
- For **private** projects, any project member (guest or higher) can view the pipelines
|
|
and related features.
|
|
|
|
If **Public pipelines** is disabled:
|
|
|
|
- For **public** projects, anyone can view the pipelines, but only members
|
|
(reporter or higher) can access the related features.
|
|
- For **internal** projects, any logged in user can view the pipelines.
|
|
However, only members (reporter or higher) can access the job related features.
|
|
- For **private** projects, only project members (reporter or higher)
|
|
can view the pipelines or access the related features.
|
|
|
|
## Auto-cancel pending pipelines
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/merge_requests/9362) in GitLab 9.1.
|
|
|
|
If you want to auto-cancel all pending non-HEAD pipelines on branch, when
|
|
new pipeline will be created (after your Git push or manually from UI),
|
|
check **Auto-cancel pending pipelines** checkbox and save the changes.
|
|
|
|
## Pipeline Badges
|
|
|
|
In the pipelines settings page you can find pipeline status and test coverage
|
|
badges for your project. The latest successful pipeline will be used to read
|
|
the pipeline status and test coverage values.
|
|
|
|
Visit the pipelines settings page in your project to see the exact link to
|
|
your badges, as well as ways to embed the badge image in your HTML or Markdown
|
|
pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Pipeline status badge
|
|
|
|
Depending on the status of your job, a badge can have the following values:
|
|
|
|
- pending
|
|
- running
|
|
- passed
|
|
- failed
|
|
- skipped
|
|
- canceled
|
|
- unknown
|
|
|
|
You can access a pipeline status badge image using the following link:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
https://example.gitlab.com/<namespace>/<project>/badges/<branch>/pipeline.svg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Test coverage report badge
|
|
|
|
GitLab makes it possible to define the regular expression for [coverage report](#test-coverage-parsing),
|
|
that each job log will be matched against. This means that each job in the
|
|
pipeline can have the test coverage percentage value defined.
|
|
|
|
The test coverage badge can be accessed using following link:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
https://example.gitlab.com/<namespace>/<project>/badges/<branch>/coverage.svg
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you would like to get the coverage report from a specific job, you can add
|
|
the `job=coverage_job_name` parameter to the URL. For example, the following
|
|
Markdown code will embed the test coverage report badge of the `coverage` job
|
|
into your `README.md`:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Badge styles
|
|
|
|
Pipeline badges can be rendered in different styles by adding the `style=style_name` parameter to the URL. Currently two styles are available:
|
|
|
|
#### Flat (default)
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
https://example.gitlab.com/<namespace>/<project>/badges/<branch>/coverage.svg?style=flat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Flat square
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/30120) in GitLab 11.8.
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
https://example.gitlab.com/<namespace>/<project>/badges/<branch>/coverage.svg?style=flat-square
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
[Environment variables](../../../ci/variables/README.html#gitlab-cicd-environment-variables) can be set in an environment to be available to a runner.
|
|
|
|
<!-- ## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
Include any troubleshooting steps that you can foresee. If you know beforehand what issues
|
|
one might have when setting this up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
|
|
important to describe those, too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them here.
|
|
This is important to minimize requests for support, and to avoid doc comments with
|
|
questions that you know someone might ask.
|
|
|
|
Each scenario can be a third-level heading, e.g. `### Getting error message X`.
|
|
If you have none to add when creating a doc, leave this section in place
|
|
but commented out to help encourage others to add to it in the future. -->
