This component generates a GitLab pipeline file and executes it in your pipeline. It will create an automatic commit when the content of the file changes.

Usage

Create an empty pipeline file in your repository, for example pipeline.generated.yml:
Create GitLab pipeline file .gitlab-ci.yml:

include:
  - component: $CI_SERVER_FQDN/xrow-public/ci-tools/common@stable
  - component: $CI_SERVER_FQDN/xrow-public/ci-tools/pipeline-generator@stable
    inputs:

      script: |-
        echo "[info] Generating pipeline"
        mkdir -p $(dirname $PIPELINE_FILE) || true
        echo "" > $PIPELINE_FILE
        echo "somejob:" >> $PIPELINE_FILE
        echo "  stage: test" >> $PIPELINE_FILE
        echo "  script:" >> $PIPELINE_FILE
        echo "    - echo Hello, World!" >> $PIPELINE_FILE
  - local: pipeline.generated.yml
