Current Status of CI/CD

As of now, the helixml/live-coding project does not have a CI/CD pipeline set up.

Next Steps for CI/CD Setup

  1. Choose a CI/CD Service: Consider using services like GitHub Actions, CircleCI, or Travis CI, which integrate well with most Git repositories.

  2. Create a Configuration File: Based on the chosen service, create a configuration file in your project’s root directory.

Example Using GitHub Actions

For a GitHub repository, create a .github/workflows/main.yml file.

name: CI/CD Pipeline

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

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

    - name: Set up Node.js
      uses: actions/setup-node@v2
      with:
        node-version: '14'

    - name: Install Dependencies
      run: npm install

    - name: Run Tests
      run: npm test

    - name: Deploy
      run: |
        echo "Deploying to production..."
        # Add deployment scripts here
  1. Define Build and Test Scripts: In the example above, replace npm test with your testing command, and add your deployment commands in the “Deploy” step.

  2. Testing and Validation: Commit your changes and push to the repository. Monitor the CI/CD pipeline in the GitHub Actions tab for any errors or status updates.

  3. Integrate Notifications: Optionally, integrate notifications (e.g., via Slack or email) to alert about the success or failure of builds.

Example Using CircleCI

If you opt for CircleCI, create a .circleci/config.yml file.

version: 2.1

executors:
  node-executor:
    docker:
      - image: circleci/node:14

jobs:
  build:
    executor: node-executor
    steps:
      - checkout
      - run: npm install
      - run: npm test
      - run:
          name: Deploy
          command: |
            echo "Deploying to production..."
            # Add deployment scripts here

workflows:
  version: 2
  build_and_deploy:
    jobs:
      - build

Implementing these steps will enable a CI/CD process tailored to the needs of the helixml/live-coding project.

Conclusion

The current absence of CI/CD can be promptly addressed by selecting a CI/CD service and configuring it as outlined. As you proceed, customize the build and deployment steps to fit project requirements.
