GitLab CI/CD Pipeline for Automated Deployment

📌 Overview

This project includes a GitLab CI/CD pipeline that automates deployment on every commit using a .gitlab-ci.yml file.

🚀 Features

  • Continuous Integration (CI): Runs tests and builds the application.
  • Continuous Deployment (CD): Deploys automatically on every commit.
  • Fully Automated Workflow: No manual intervention required.

🛠️ Setup Instructions

  1. Add a .gitlab-ci.yml file to the repository.
  2. Define stages (e.g., build, test, deploy).
  3. Configure GitLab Runners for execution.
  4. Push changes to trigger the pipeline.

🔧 Customization

  • Modify the .gitlab-ci.yml file to fit project-specific requirements.
  • Add environment variables for secure deployments.

🏆 Success Criteria

✅ Code changes trigger the pipeline
✅ Automated deployment occurs on every commit
✅ Pipeline logs available in GitLab

Happy Coding! 🎉

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Enhanced the automated pipeline to streamline building, testing, and deploying the application, ensuring more consistent and reliable releases.

Walkthrough

This pull request introduces a new GitLab CI/CD configuration using the .gitlab-ci.yml file. The file defines three main stages—building, pushing to Docker Hub, and deploying on EC2. Each stage comprises specific jobs with artifact management and environment variable usage for secure authentication. The configuration is set for a development context with jobs tagged as dev.

Changes

File Change Summary
.gitlab-ci.yml New CI/CD pipeline config defining three stages: build_and_test (builds a Docker image with notes-app:latest and creates build artifacts), push_to_dockerhub (logs into Docker Hub, tags and pushes the image, manages artifacts), and deploy_on_EC2 (uses Docker Compose for deployment with artifact management).

Poem

I'm a rabbit, hopping with glee,
In CI/CD fields, where code runs free.
With builds and pushes in a seamless flow,
Deploying magic wherever I go.
A whiskered cheer for each pipeline run,
Celebrating changes under the coding sun!
🐇✨

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

🧹 Nitpick (assertive)

Address YAML Linting Issues in the build_job Block
There are minor YAML formatting issues in this block:

  • Line 9: Trailing spaces after script: should be removed.
  • Line 16: There are extra spaces after the hyphen in the artifact path definition.
    Apply the following diffs to fix these issues:
-  script: 
+  script:
-      -  builds/
+      - builds/
📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
