With pipelines for merge requests, you can design a specific pipeline structure

## Configuring pipelines for merge requests

To configure pipelines for merge request, add the `only: merge_requests` parameter to

# Creating and using CI/CD pipelines

|

> Introduced in GitLab 8.8.
|
||||
|
||||
## Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines are the top-level component of continuous integration, deployment, and delivery.
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines comprise:
|
||||
|
||||
- Jobs that define what to run. For example, code compilation or test runs.
|
||||
- Stages that define when and how to run. For example, that test run after code compilation.
|
||||
|
||||
Jobs in a stage are executed by [Runners](runners/README.md) in parallel, if there are enough concurrent [Runners](runners/README.md).
|
||||
|
||||
If the jobs in a stage:
|
||||
|
||||
- Succeed, the pipeline moves on to the next stage.
|
||||
- Fail, the next stage is not (usually) executed.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: **Note:**
|
||||
If you have a [mirrored repository where GitLab pulls from](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/workflow/repository_mirroring.html#pulling-from-a-remote-repository-starter),
|
||||
you may need to enable pipeline triggering in your project's
|
||||
**Settings > Repository > Pull from a remote repository > Trigger pipelines for mirror updates**.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pipelines
|
||||
### Simple example
|
||||
|
||||
A pipeline is a group of [jobs] that get executed in [stages].
|
||||
All of the jobs in a stage are executed in parallel (if there are enough
|
||||
concurrent [Runners]), and if they all succeed, the pipeline moves on to the
|
||||
next stage. If one of the jobs fails, the next stage is not (usually)
|
||||
executed. You can access the pipelines page in your project's **Pipelines** tab.
|
||||
As an example, imagine a pipeline consisting of four stages, executed in the following order:
|
||||
|
||||
In the following image you can see that the pipeline consists of four stages
|
||||
(`build`, `test`, `staging`, `production`) each one having one or more jobs.
|
||||
- `build`, with a job called `compile`.
|
||||
- `test`, with two jobs called `test` and `test2`.
|
||||
- `staging`, with a job called `deploy-to-stage`.
|
||||
- `production`, with a job called `deploy-to-prod`.
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
GitLab capitalizes the stages' names when shown in the [pipeline graphs](#pipeline-graphs).
|
||||
## Visualizing pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines example](img/pipelines.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Types of pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
There are three types of pipelines that often use the single shorthand of "pipeline". People often talk about them as if each one is "the" pipeline, but really, they're just pieces of a single, comprehensive pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
![Types of Pipelines](img/types-of-pipelines.png)
|
||||
|
||||
1. **CI Pipeline**: Build and test stages defined in `.gitlab-ci.yml`.
|
||||
1. **Deploy Pipeline**: Deploy stage(s) defined in `.gitlab-ci.yml` The flow of deploying code to servers through various stages: e.g. development to staging to production.
|
||||
1. **Project Pipeline**: Cross-project CI dependencies [triggered via API][triggers], particularly for micro-services, but also for complicated build dependencies: e.g. api -> front-end, ce/ee -> omnibus.
|
||||
|
||||
## Development workflows
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines accommodate several development workflows:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Branch Flow** (e.g. different branch for dev, qa, staging, production).
|
||||
1. **Trunk-based Flow** (e.g. feature branches and single master branch, possibly with tags for releases).
|
||||
1. **Fork-based Flow** (e.g. merge requests come from forks).
|
||||
|
||||
Example continuous delivery flow:
|
||||
|
||||
![CD Flow](img/pipelines-goal.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Jobs
|
||||
|
||||
Jobs can be defined in the [`.gitlab-ci.yml`][jobs-yaml] file. Not to be
|
||||
confused with a `build` job or `build` stage.
|
||||
|
||||
## Defining pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines are defined in `.gitlab-ci.yml` by specifying [jobs] that run in
|
||||
[stages].
|
||||
|
||||
See the reference [documentation for jobs](yaml/README.md#jobs).
|
||||
|
||||
## Manually executing pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines can be manually executed, with predefined or manually-specified [variables](variables/README.md).
|
||||
|
||||
To execute a pipeline manually:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to your project's **CI/CD > Pipelines**.
|
||||
1. Click on the **Run Pipeline** button.
|
||||
1. Select the branch to run the pipeline for and enter any environment variables required for the pipeline run.
|
||||
|
||||
## Seeing pipeline status
|
||||
|
||||
You can find the current and historical pipeline runs under your project's
|
||||
**Pipelines** tab. Clicking on a pipeline will show the jobs that were run for
|
||||
that pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines index page](img/pipelines_index.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Seeing job status
|
||||
|
||||
When you visit a single pipeline you can see the related jobs for that pipeline.
|
||||
Clicking on an individual job will show you its job trace, and allow you to
|
||||
cancel the job, retry it, or erase the job trace.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines example](img/pipelines.png)
|
||||
|
||||
## Seeing the failure reason for jobs
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced][ce-17782] in GitLab 10.7.
|
||||
|
||||
When a pipeline fails or is allowed to fail, there are several places where you
|
||||
can quickly check the reason it failed:
|
||||
|
||||
- **In the pipeline graph** present on the pipeline detail view.
|
||||
- **In the pipeline widgets** present in the merge requests and commit pages.
|
||||
- **In the job views** present in the global and detailed views of a job.
|
||||
|
||||
In any case, if you hover over the failed job you can see the reason it failed.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipeline detail](img/job_failure_reason.png)
|
||||
|
||||
From [GitLab 10.8][ce-17814] you can also see the reason it failed on the Job detail page.

||||

||||

|
||||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/5742) in GitLab 8.11.
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines can be complex structures with many sequential and parallel jobs.
|
||||
To make it a little easier to see what is going on, you can view a graph
|
||||
of a single pipeline and its status.
|
||||
|
||||
A pipeline graph can be shown in two different ways depending on what page you
|
||||
are on.
|
||||
To make it easier to understand the flow of a pipeline, GitLab has pipeline graphs for viewing pipeline
|
||||
and their statuses.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
Pipeline graphs can be displayed in two different ways, depending on what page you
|
||||
access the graph.
|
||||
|
||||
The regular pipeline graph that shows the names of the jobs of each stage can
|
||||
be found when you are on a [single pipeline page](#seeing-pipeline-status).
|
||||
NOTE: **Note:**
|
||||
GitLab capitalizes the stages' names when shown in the [pipeline graphs](#pipeline-graphs).
|
||||
|
||||
### Regular pipeline graphs
|
||||

||||

|
||||

- A single commit page.
|
||||
- A merge request page.

||||
|
||||
That way, you can see all related jobs for a single commit and the net result
|
||||
Pipeline mini graphs allow you to see all related jobs for a single commit and the net result
|
||||
of each stage of your pipeline. This allows you to quickly see what failed and
|
||||
fix it. Stages in pipeline mini graphs are collapsible. Hover your mouse over

them and click to expand their jobs.

||||
### Grouping similar jobs in the pipeline graph
|
||||
### Job ordering in pipeline graphs
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced][ce-6242] in GitLab 8.12.
|
||||
Job ordering depends on the type of pipeline graph. For [regular pipeline graphs](#regular-pipeline-graphs), jobs are sorted by name.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have many similar jobs, your pipeline graph becomes very long and hard
|
||||
to read. For that reason, similar jobs can automatically be grouped together.
|
||||
If the job names are formatted in certain ways, they will be collapsed into
|
||||
a single group in regular pipeline graphs (not the mini graphs).
|
||||
You'll know when a pipeline has grouped jobs if you don't see the retry or
|
||||
cancel button inside them. Hovering over them will show the number of grouped
|
||||
jobs. Click to expand them.
|
||||
For [pipeline mini graphs](#pipeline-mini-graphs) ([introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/9760)
|
||||
in GitLab 9.0), jobs are sorted by severity and then by name.
|
||||
|
||||
![Grouped pipelines](img/pipelines_grouped.png)
|
||||
|
||||
The basic requirements is that there are two numbers separated with one of
|
||||
the following (you can even use them interchangeably):
|
||||
|
||||
- A space (` `)
|
||||
- A slash (`/`)
|
||||
- A colon (`:`)
|
||||
|
||||
>**Note:**
|
||||
More specifically, [it uses][regexp] this regular expression: `\d+[\s:\/\\]+\d+\s*`.
|
||||
|
||||
The jobs will be ordered by comparing those two numbers from left to right. You
|
||||
usually want the first to be the index and the second the total.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test`:
|
||||
|
||||
- `test 0 3` => `test`
|
||||
- `test 1 3` => `test`
|
||||
- `test 2 3` => `test`
|
||||
|
||||
The following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test ruby`:
|
||||
|
||||
- `test 1:2 ruby` => `test ruby`
|
||||
- `test 2:2 ruby` => `test ruby`
|
||||
|
||||
The following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test ruby` as well:
|
||||
|
||||
- `1/3 test ruby` => `test ruby`
|
||||
- `2/3 test ruby` => `test ruby`
|
||||
- `3/3 test ruby` => `test ruby`
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual actions from the pipeline graph
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced][ce-7931] in GitLab 8.15.
|
||||
|
||||
[Manual actions][manual] allow you to require manual interaction before moving
|
||||
forward with a particular job in CI. Your entire pipeline can run automatically,
|
||||
but the actual [deploy to production][env-manual] will require a click.
|
||||
|
||||
You can do this straight from the pipeline graph. Just click on the play button
|
||||
to execute that particular job. For example, in the image below, the `production`
|
||||
stage has a job with a manual action.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines example](img/pipelines.png)
|
||||
|
||||
### Delay a particular job in the pipeline graph
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/21767) in GitLab 11.4.
|
||||
|
||||
When you do not want to run a job immediately, you can [delay the job to run after a certain period](yaml/README.md#whendelayed).
|
||||
This is especially useful for timed incremental rollout that new code is rolled out gradually.
|
||||
For example, if you start rolling out new code and users do not experience trouble, GitLab automatically completes the deployment from 0% to 100%.
|
||||
Alternatively, if you start rolling out and you noticed that a few users experience trouble with the version,
|
||||
you can stop the timed incremental rollout by canceling the pipeline, and [rolling](environments.md#rolling-back-changes) it back to the stable version.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines example](img/pipeline_incremental_rollout.png)
|
||||
|
||||
### Ordering of jobs in pipeline graphs
|
||||
|
||||
**Regular pipeline graph**
|
||||
|
||||
In the single pipeline page, jobs are sorted by name.
|
||||
|
||||
**Mini pipeline graph**
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced][ce-9760] in GitLab 9.0.
|
||||
|
||||
In the pipeline mini graphs, the jobs are sorted first by severity and then
|
||||
by name. The order of severity is:

## How the pipeline duration is calculated
|
||||
### How pipeline duration is calculated
|
||||
|
||||
Total running time for a given pipeline would exclude retries and pending
|
||||
(queue) time. We could reduce this problem down to finding the union of
|
||||
periods.
|
||||
Total running time for a given pipeline excludes retries and pending
|
||||
(queue) time.
|
||||
|
||||
So each job would be represented as a `Period`, which consists of
|
||||
`Period#first` as when the job started and `Period#last` as when the
|
||||
job was finished. A simple example here would be:
|
||||
Each job is represented as a `Period`, which consists of:
|
||||
|
||||
- `Period#first` (when the job started).
|
||||
- `Period#last` (when the job finished).
|
||||
|
||||
A simple example is:
|
||||
|
||||
- A (1, 3)
|
||||
- B (2, 4)
|
||||
- C (6, 7)
|
||||
|
||||
Here A begins from 1, and ends to 3. B begins from 2, and ends to 4.
|
||||
C begins from 6, and ends to 7. Visually it could be viewed as:
|
||||
In the example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
- A begins at 1 and ends at 3.
|
||||
- B begins at 2 and ends at 4.
|
||||
- C begins at 6 and ends at 7.
|
||||
|
||||
Visually it can be viewed as:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
|
||||
AAAAAAA
|
||||
BBBBBBB
|
||||
CCCC
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The union of A, B, and C would be (1, 4) and (6, 7), therefore the
|

## Configuring pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
Pipeline status and test coverage report badges are available. You can find their
|
||||
respective link in the [Pipelines settings] page.
|
||||
Pipelines, and their component jobs and stages, are defined in the [`.gitlab-ci.yml`](yaml/README.md) file for each project.
|
||||
|
||||
In particular:
|
||||
|
||||
- Jobs are the [basic configuration](yaml/README.html#introduction) component.
|
||||
- Stages are defined using the [`stages`](yaml/README.html#stages) keyword.
|
||||
|
||||
For all available configuration options, see [GitLab CI/CD Pipeline Configuration Reference](yaml/README.md).
|
||||
|
||||
### Settings and schedules
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to configuring jobs through `.gitlab-ci.yml`, additional configuration options are available
|
||||
through the GitLab UI:
|
||||
|
||||
- Pipeline settings for each project. For more information, see [Pipeline settings](../user/project/pipelines/settings.md).
|
||||
- Schedules for pipelines. For more information, see [Pipeline schedules](../user/project/pipelines/schedules.md).
|
||||
|
||||
### Grouping jobs
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/6242) in GitLab 8.12.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have many similar jobs, your [pipeline graph](#visualizing-pipelines) becomes long and hard
|
||||
to read.
|
||||
|
||||
For that reason, similar jobs can automatically be grouped together.
|
||||
If the job names are formatted in certain ways, they will be collapsed into
|
||||
a single group in regular pipeline graphs (not the mini graphs).
|
||||
|
||||
You'll know when a pipeline has grouped jobs if you don't see the retry or
|
||||
cancel button inside them. Hovering over them will show the number of grouped
|
||||
jobs. Click to expand them.
|
||||
|
||||
![Grouped pipelines](img/pipelines_grouped.png)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Configuring grouping
|
||||
|
||||
In the pipeline [configuration file](yaml/README.md), job names must include two numbers separated with one of
|
||||
the following (you can even use them interchangeably):
|
||||
|
||||
- A space.
|
||||
- A slash (`/`).
|
||||
- A colon (`:`).
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: **Note:**
|
||||
More specifically, it uses [this](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/2f3dc314f42dbd79813e6251792853bc231e69dd/app/models/commit_status.rb#L99) regular expression: `\d+[\s:\/\\]+\d+\s*`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### How grouping works
|
||||
|
||||
The jobs will be ordered by comparing those two numbers from left to right. You
|
||||
usually want the first to be the index and the second the total.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test`:
|
||||
|
||||
- `test 0 3`
|
||||
- `test 1 3`
|
||||
- `test 2 3`
|
||||
|
||||
The following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test ruby`:
|
||||
|
||||
- `test 1:2 ruby`
|
||||
- `test 2:2 ruby`
|
||||
|
||||
The following jobs will be grouped under a job named `test ruby` as well:
|
||||
|
||||
- `1/3 test ruby`
|
||||
- `2/3 test ruby`
|
||||
- `3/3 test ruby`
|
||||
|
||||
### Pipelines for merge requests
|
||||
|
||||
GitLab supports configuring pipelines that run only for merge requests. For more information, see
|
||||
[Pipelines for merge requests](merge_request_pipelines/index.md).
|
||||
|
||||
### Badges
|
||||
|
||||
Pipeline status and test coverage report badges are available and configurable for each project.
|
||||
|
||||
For information on adding pipeline badges to project, see [Pipeline badges](../user/project/pipelines/settings.md#pipeline-badges).
|
||||
|
||||
## Multi-project pipelines **[PREMIUM]**
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines for different projects can be combined and visualized together.
|
||||
|
||||
For more information, see [Multi-project pipelines](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/multi_project_pipelines.html).
|
||||
|
||||
## Working with pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
Generally, pipelines are executed automatically and require no intervention once created.
|
||||
|
||||
However, there are instances where you'll need to interact with pipelines. These are documented below.
|
||||
|
||||
### Manually executing pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
Pipelines can be manually executed, with predefined or manually-specified [variables](variables/README.md).
|
||||
|
||||
You might do this if the results of a pipeline (for example, a code build) is required outside the normal
|
||||
operation of the pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
To execute a pipeline manually:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to your project's **CI/CD > Pipelines**.
|
||||
1. Click on the **Run Pipeline** button.
|
||||
1. On the **Run Pipeline** page:
|
||||
1. Select the branch to run the pipeline for in the **Create for** field.
|
||||
1. Enter any [environment variables](variables/README.md) required for the pipeline run.
|
||||
1. Click the **Create pipeline** button.
|
||||
|
||||
The pipeline will execute the jobs as configured.
|
||||
|
||||
### Accessing pipelines
|
||||
|
||||
You can find the current and historical pipeline runs under your project's
|
||||
**CI/CD > Pipelines** page. Clicking on a pipeline will show the jobs that were run for
|
||||
that pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines index page](img/pipelines_index.png)
|
||||
|
||||
You can also access pipelines for a merge request by navigating to its **Pipelines** tab.
|
||||
|
||||
### Accessing individual jobs
|
||||
|
||||
When you access a pipeline, you can see the related jobs for that pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
Clicking on an individual job will show you its job trace, and allow you to:
|
||||
|
||||
- Cancel the job.
|
||||
- Retry the job.
|
||||
- Erase the job trace.
|
||||
|
||||
### Seeing the failure reason for jobs
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/17782) in GitLab 10.7.
|
||||
|
||||
When a pipeline fails or is allowed to fail, there are several places where you
|
||||
can quickly check the reason it failed:
|
||||
|
||||
- In the pipeline graph, on the pipeline detail view.
|
||||
- In the pipeline widgets, in the merge requests and commit pages.
|
||||
- In the job views, in the global and detailed views of a job.
|
||||
|
||||
In any case, if you hover over the failed job you can see the reason it failed.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipeline detail](img/job_failure_reason.png)
|
||||
|
||||
From [GitLab 10.8](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/17814),
|
||||
you can also see the reason it failed on the Job detail page.
|
||||
|
||||
### Manual actions from pipeline graphs
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/7931) in GitLab 8.15.
|
||||
|
||||
Manual actions, configured using the [`when:manual`](yaml/README.md#whenmanual) parameter,
|
||||
allow you to require manual interaction before moving forward in the pipeline.
|
||||
|
||||
You can do this straight from the pipeline graph. Just click on the play button
|
||||
to execute that particular job.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, your entire pipeline could run automatically, but require manual action to
|
||||
[deploy to production](environments.md#manually-deploying-to-environments). Below, the `production`
|
||||
stage has a job with a manual action.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines example](img/pipelines.png)
|
||||
|
||||
### Delay a job in a pipeline graph
|
||||
|
||||
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/21767) in GitLab 11.4.
|
||||
|
||||
When you do not want to run a job immediately, you can use the [`when:deplayed`](yaml/README.md#whendelayed) parameter to
|
||||
delay a job's execution for a certain period.
|
||||
|
||||
This is especially useful for timed incremental rollout where new code is rolled out gradually.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you start rolling out new code and users:
|
||||
|
||||
- Do not experience trouble, GitLab can automatically complete the deployment from 0% to 100%.
|
||||
- Experience trouble with the new code, you can stop the timed incremental rollout by canceling the pipeline
|
||||
and [rolling](environments.md#rolling-back-changes) back to last stable version.
|
||||
|
||||
![Pipelines example](img/pipeline_incremental_rollout.png)
|
||||
|
||||
### Using the API
|
||||
|
||||
GitLab provides API endpoints to:
|
||||
|
||||
- Perform basic functions. For more information, see [Pipelines API](../api/pipelines.md).
|
||||
- Maintain pipeline schedules. For more information, see [Pipeline schedules API](../api/pipeline_schedules.md).
|
||||
- Trigger pipeline runs. For more information, see:
|
||||
- [Triggering pipelines through the API](triggers/README.md).
|
||||
- [Pipeline triggers API](../api/pipeline_triggers.md).
