CI/CD Automation Scripts

The stevedunn/pacman-typescript project currently does not have a fully established CI/CD pipeline as part of its structure. While the presence of a .github/workflows directory indicates potential for automation, it specifically contains an azure.yml file that needs to be set up or customized to define a CI/CD workflow for this project.

To establish CI/CD automation, the following steps can be taken:

1. Create or Modify Workflow Files: Within the .github/workflows/ directory, edit the existing azure.yml or create new workflow files that describe the CI/CD process needed for the project.

2. Setting Up CI/CD Pipeline:

   • A basic CI/CD pipeline can be structured by defining jobs for building, testing, and deploying the application. Below is a sample of what the azure.yml might look like:

   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 TypeScript Compiler
           run: npm run build
   
         - name: Run Tests
           run: npm test
   
     deploy:
       runs-on: ubuntu-latest
       needs: build
       steps:
         - name: Checkout code
           uses: actions/checkout@v2
   
         - name: Deploy to Azure
           uses: Azure/webapps-deploy@v2
           with:
             app-name: 'your-app-name'
             publish-profile: ${{ secrets.AZURE_PUBLISH_PROFILE }}
   

3. Environment Variables and Secrets: To securely manage sensitive data required for deployment (e.g., API keys, service tokens), define secrets in your GitHub repository by navigating to Settings > Secrets and variables > Actions. For example, AZURE_PUBLISH_PROFILE should be added to store the Azure publish profile.

4. Testing and Validation: Introduce appropriate testing frameworks if not already present, like Jest or Mocha. Ensure that tests are executed as part of the CI process to validate changes before deployment.

5. Configure Triggers: The workflow can be triggered on various events, such as pushes or pull requests to the main branch, which can be customized as required by the project.

Conclusion

While the stevedunn/pacman-typescript project currently does not have an active CI/CD setup, the groundwork for automation exists in the .github/workflows directory. By following the steps above and customizing the provided examples, you can establish a robust CI/CD process that will help streamline the development and deployment workflow for the project.
