engine-ci

Welcome to the engine-ci project, a key component of the containifyci organization. engine-ci is a robust CI/CD pipeline engine designed to operate in a containerized environment. It supports both Docker and Podman as container runtimes and is implemented in Go.

Getting Started

To start using engine-ci, you need to install the binary. The installation can be done via the following command:

go install github.com/containifyci/engine-ci@latest

Alternatively, you can download the pre-built binary from the releases page.

Usage

Once the binary is installed, initialize your project by creating a .containifyci directory with the necessary containifyci.go file:

engine-ci init

This command generates the .containifyci directory with the containifyci.go file, which is the core configuration for your pipelines.

To execute the pipeline defined in containifyci.go, use:

engine-ci run

Example

For a practical example of how engine-ci is used, check out the containifyci.go file within this repository. It demonstrates how the engine-ci project is self-hosted using its own pipeline.

Roadmap

Completed Tasks:

• Podman Support: Integrate with Podman through the Podman bindings.
• Pipeline Execution: Explore alternatives to running pipelines, such as compiling the pipeline into a binary for execution with go run -C .containifyci/containifyci.go build.
• Pipeline Abstraction: Simplify pipeline code by implementing a container pipeline abstraction layer to reduce redundancy across different languages like Go, Maven, Python, etc.

Ongoing and Upcoming Tasks:

• REST API Endpoint: Develop and integrate a REST API endpoint, potentially implementing the first pipeline using Python (low priority).
• NPM Pipeline: Add support for pipelines targeting npm-based repositories (medium priority).
• Podman Logging: Improve progress logging functionality within Podman (high priority).
• Multi-Architecture Docker Image: Add Docker build support for the sonar-scanner-cli multi-architecture image (low priority).
• Golang Libraries Support: Enable builds for Go libraries that do not include a main package (high priority).
• Golang Submodule Support: Allow Go submodules to be built as part of the main module build (high priority).
• Container Image Push: Provide an option to opt out of pushing container images (enabled by default).
• Goreleaser Integration: Provide an option to opt out of using Goreleaser (enabled by default).
• Dependabot: Update DependaBot configuration also to run daily (high priority).
• Github Action: Change release process to create draft a release and to publish it after all artifacts are uploaded by goreleaser.
  • https://goreleaser.com/customization/release/#github
• Goreleaser Signed Apple Builds: Add signing for Apple builds (high priority).
• Concurrent Build Support: Implement concurrent build support (medium priority).
• Add Go Quality Build Steps: Add extra Go quality build steps to post test coverage and other reports to the Pull Request similar to the trivy report. go-coverage-report (low priority).
