GitLab CICD Pipeline Concepts
Now we know that
.gitlab-ci.yml file is the file that triggers the GitLab CI pipeline, but what are the most common concepts used under that file to have an efficient pipeline? I think the main concepts to start learning are:- 1.Stages
- 2.Jobs
- 3.Variables
- 4.Caches and Artifacts
- 5.Rules and Workflow
- 6.Runners
- 7.Pipelines
I would like to mention the Pipelines as the last concept, because it is better to define the concepts which forms a pipeline and then mention different types of pipelines and their internals.
Let's quickly mention what the core concepts are and show how you can use them in your
.gitlab-ci.yml file. Later we will combine those concepts to add logic to our pipelines.Last modified 9mo ago
