This document outlines the CI/CD workflow process for the docker/genai-stack project. Currently, a fully integrated CI/CD workflow is not yet set up. Below are recommended next steps to establish a CI/CD pipeline suitable for this project, followed by detailed code examples that can help in setting up a CI/CD workflow.

Next Steps to Set Up CI/CD

  1. Select a CI/CD Tool: Choose from tools like GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, Travis CI, or Jenkins based on the team’s preferences and project requirements.

  2. Define Build and Test Scripts: Create scripts that will build Docker images, run tests, and deploy services.

  3. Integrate Docker Build and Push Steps: Use Docker commands within the CI/CD scripts to build the images and push them to a registry.

  4. Automate Deployment: Decide on how you want to deploy your services (e.g., Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, or direct Docker commands) and automate this in your CI/CD toolchain.

  5. Configure Environment Variables: Ensure sensitive information is securely handled using secrets management in your CI/CD tools.

  6. Set Up Notifications: Configure notifications to inform the development team about the CI/CD status (success, failure, etc.).

Code Examples

1. Docker Build and Push Example

A basic GitHub Actions workflow example to build and push Docker images might look like this:

name: CI/CD Workflow

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    services:
      database:
        image: neo4j:5.11
        ports:
          - 7687:7687
          - 7474:7474
        env:
          NEO4J_AUTH: neo4j/password
        options: >-
          --health-cmd="wget --no-verbose --tries=1 --spider http://localhost:7474/ || exit 1"
          --health-interval=15s
          --health-timeout=30s
          --health-retries=10

    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Log in to DockerHub
        uses: docker/login-action@v1
        with:
          username: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_USERNAME }}
          password: ${{ secrets.DOCKER_PASSWORD }}

      - name: Build Docker Image
        run: docker build -t my-app:latest .

      - name: Push Docker Image
        run: docker push my-app:latest

2. CI/CD Pipeline with Testing

Integrate testing in your CI/CD workflow with Docker:

jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2

      - name: Build Docker Image
        run: docker build -t my-app:latest .

      - name: Run Tests
        run: |
          docker run --rm my-app:latest python -m unittest discover -s tests

3. Deploying Docker Services

An example of deploying Docker services after successful tests could be:

jobs:
  deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    needs: [build, test]

    steps:
      - name: Deploy to Server
        run: |
          ssh user@server "cd /path/to/app && docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d"

Summary

Currently, the docker/genai-stack project does not have a CI/CD workflow in place. By following the outlined steps and utilizing the code examples provided, teams can set up a robust CI/CD pipeline tailored to their specific development and deployment needs. Ensure that proper security practices are followed regarding sensitive data and credentials throughout the CI/CD process.
