mvines / ci-gate Goto Github PK

Gates access to the CI system for Github pull requests. Authorized users get immediate CI service. Pull Requests from 3rd party users only enter CI once the CI label is added to their Pull Request by a member of the project.

Suppress CI on a particular Pull Request by applying the 'noCI' label. To resume CI service on the Pull Request:

1. Remove the 'noCI' label
2. Add new commit, close/re-open, or add the 'CI' label

If you'd like to use ci-gate for your github project:

1. Create the following labels in your github project:

• CI - Pull Requests from 3rd party users only enter CI once this label is attached
• automerge - Pull requests with this label attached will be automatically merged once status checks pass

2. Go to the webhooks section of your project settings and create a new webhook as follows:
   1. Payload URL = https://ci-gate.herokuapp.com/github
   2. Content Type = application/json
   3. Secret = contents of the GITHUB_WEBHOOK_SECRET environment variable
   4. Which events ... = "Send me everything" for simplicity
3. Check ci-gate server log file to ensure a github "ping" event was received, indicating the webhook was successfully created

Ensure the following is added to /etc/buildkite-agent/hooks/environment for each build agent:

if [[ $BUILDKITE_BRANCH =~ pull/* ]]; then
  export BUILDKITE_REFSPEC="+$BUILDKITE_BRANCH:refs/remotes/origin/$BUILDKITE_BRANCH"
  echo $BUILDKITE_REFSPEC
fi

This workaround is necessary to enable the buildkite API to successfully create a new pipeline from a pull request branch (pull/123/head).

From within a job use buildkite-agent meta-data get affected_files to obtain a colon-delimited list of files that were added/removed/modified by this Pull Request.
