# GitLab REST API Reference
## Overview
The GitLab REST API provides programmatic access to GitLab resources. All API requests require authentication and return JSON responses.
## Base URL
```
https://gitlab.com/api/v4
```
For self-hosted GitLab instances:
```
https://your-gitlab-instance.com/api/v4
```
## Authentication
### Personal Access Tokens (Recommended)
Include in request header:

?private_token=<your_access_token>
```
### OAuth 2.0 Token
Include in request header:
```
Authorization: Bearer <oauth_token>
```
### Job Token (CI/CD)
Use within GitLab CI/CD jobs:
```
JOB-TOKEN: <CI_JOB_TOKEN>
```
## Rate Limiting
- Default: 2000 requests per minute per user

- `409 Conflict`: Resource conflict
- `422 Unprocessable Entity`: Validation error
- `429 Too Many Requests`: Rate limit exceeded
- `500 Internal Server Error`: Server error
### Error Response Format
```json
{
"message": "Error message",
"error": "error_type"
}
```
Validation errors:
```json
{
"message": {
"field": ["error message"]
}
}
```
## Best Practices
1. **Use Personal Access Tokens**: More secure than OAuth for scripts and automation
2. **Handle Rate Limits**: Implement exponential backoff for rate limit errors
3. **Use Pagination**: For large datasets, implement proper pagination
4. **Cache Responses**: Cache API responses when appropriate
5. **Error Handling**: Always handle error responses gracefully
6. **Project IDs**: Use URL-encoded project paths (e.g., `namespace%2Fproject`)
7. **Webhooks**: Use webhook tokens and verify SSL certificates
8. **Minimize Requests**: Batch operations when possible
9. **Use Specific Scopes**: Request only necessary API scopes
10. **Monitor Usage**: Track API usage through rate limit headers

# GitLab Authentication Reference
## Overview
GitLab supports multiple authentication methods for accessing the API, Git repositories, and the web interface.
## Authentication Methods
### 1. Personal Access Tokens (PATs)
Most common method for API and Git authentication.
#### Creating a Personal Access Token
**Via UI**:
1. Navigate to User Settings > Access Tokens
2. Enter token name
3. Set expiration date (optional but recommended)
4. Select scopes
5. Click "Create personal access token"
6. Copy token (shown only once)
**Scopes**:
- `api` - Complete API access
- `read_api` - Read-only API access
- `read_user` - Read user information
- `read_repository` - Read repository (pull code)
- `write_repository` - Write repository (push code)
- `read_registry` - Read container registry
- `write_registry` - Write container registry
- `sudo` - Perform actions as any user (admin only)
- `admin_mode` - Admin mode access
#### Using Personal Access Tokens
**API requests**:
```bash
# Header method (preferred)
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects"
# Query parameter method
curl "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects?private_token=<your_access_token>"
```
**Git operations**:
```bash
# Clone with token
git clone https://oauth2:<your_access_token>@gitlab.com/username/project.git
# Or configure credential helper
git config --global credential.helper store
# Then use token as password when prompted
```
**Python example**:
```python
import requests
token = "your_access_token"
headers = {"PRIVATE-TOKEN": token}
response = requests.get(
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects",
headers=headers
)
print(response.json())
```
#### Token Best Practices
- Set expiration dates on all tokens
- Use minimal required scopes
- Store tokens securely (environment variables, secret managers)
- Rotate tokens regularly
- Revoke unused tokens
- Never commit tokens to repositories
### 2. OAuth 2.0
OAuth 2.0 for third-party application authorization.
#### OAuth Application Setup
**Create OAuth Application**:
1. Navigate to User Settings > Applications
2. Enter application name
3. Set redirect URI
4. Select scopes
5. Click "Save application"
6. Note Application ID and Secret
**Authorization Code Flow**:
```python
import requests
from flask import Flask, request, redirect
app = Flask(__name__)
CLIENT_ID = "your_client_id"
CLIENT_SECRET = "your_client_secret"
REDIRECT_URI = "http://localhost:5000/callback"
GITLAB_URL = "https://gitlab.com"
@app.route('/login')
def login():
"""Redirect user to GitLab authorization page"""
auth_url = (
f"{GITLAB_URL}/oauth/authorize?"
f"client_id={CLIENT_ID}&"
f"redirect_uri={REDIRECT_URI}&"
f"response_type=code&"
f"scope=read_user+api"
)
return redirect(auth_url)
@app.route('/callback')
def callback():
"""Handle OAuth callback"""
code = request.args.get('code')
# Exchange code for access token
token_response = requests.post(
f"{GITLAB_URL}/oauth/token",
data={
'client_id': CLIENT_ID,
'client_secret': CLIENT_SECRET,
'code': code,
'grant_type': 'authorization_code',
'redirect_uri': REDIRECT_URI
}
)
token_data = token_response.json()
access_token = token_data['access_token']
refresh_token = token_data['refresh_token']
# Use access token for API requests
headers = {'Authorization': f'Bearer {access_token}'}
user_response = requests.get(
f"{GITLAB_URL}/api/v4/user",
headers=headers
)
return user_response.json()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(port=5000)
```
**Refreshing Access Token**:
```python
def refresh_access_token(refresh_token):
response = requests.post(
f"{GITLAB_URL}/oauth/token",
data={
'client_id': CLIENT_ID,
'client_secret': CLIENT_SECRET,
'refresh_token': refresh_token,
'grant_type': 'refresh_token',
'redirect_uri': REDIRECT_URI
}
)
return response.json()
```
#### OAuth Scopes
- `api` - Full API access
- `read_user` - Read user information
- `read_api` - Read-only API access
- `read_repository` - Read repositories
- `write_repository` - Write to repositories
- `read_registry` - Read container registry
- `write_registry` - Write container registry
- `sudo` - Admin impersonation (admin only)
- `openid` - OpenID Connect
- `profile` - User profile info
- `email` - User email
### 3. SSH Keys
SSH keys for Git operations.
#### Generating SSH Keys
```bash
# Generate new SSH key
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_email@example.com"
# Or RSA (if ed25519 not supported)
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"
# Start SSH agent
eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"
# Add key to agent
ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
```
#### Adding SSH Key to GitLab
**Via UI**:
1. Navigate to User Settings > SSH Keys
2. Paste public key content (`~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub`)
3. Set title
4. Optional: Set expiration date
5. Click "Add key"
**Via API**:
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
--data "title=My SSH Key" \
--data "key=$(cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub)" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/user/keys"
```
#### Using SSH Keys
```bash
# Clone with SSH
git clone git@gitlab.com:username/project.git
# Configure Git to use SSH
git remote set-url origin git@gitlab.com:username/project.git
# Test SSH connection
ssh -T git@gitlab.com
```
#### SSH Key Best Practices
- Use Ed25519 keys (more secure, faster)
- Set passphrase on private keys
- Use separate keys for different purposes
- Set expiration dates
- Store private keys securely
- Never share private keys
### 4. Deploy Keys
Read-only or read-write SSH keys for specific projects.
#### Creating Deploy Keys
**Via UI**:
1. Navigate to Project Settings > Repository > Deploy Keys
2. Enter title and key content
3. Check "Grant write permissions" if needed
4. Click "Add key"
**Via API**:
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
--data "title=Deploy Key" \
--data "key=$(cat ~/.ssh/deploy_key.pub)" \
--data "can_push=false" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/deploy_keys"
```
#### Deploy Key Use Cases
- CI/CD pipelines
- Deployment scripts
- Automated processes
- Read-only repository access
### 5. Deploy Tokens
Project or group-level tokens for registry and package access.
#### Creating Deploy Tokens
**Via UI**:
1. Navigate to Project/Group Settings > Repository > Deploy Tokens
2. Enter name
3. Set expiration date
4. Select scopes:

- `write_registry` - Push container images
- `read_package_registry` - Pull packages
- `write_package_registry` - Push packages
5. Click "Create deploy token"
6. Copy username and token
**Via API**:
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{
"name": "My Deploy Token",
"expires_at": "2025-12-31",
"scopes": ["read_repository", "read_registry"]
}' \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/deploy_tokens"
```
#### Using Deploy Tokens
**Clone repository**:
```bash
git clone https://<deploy-token-username>:<deploy-token>@gitlab.com/group/project.git
```
**Pull Docker image**:
```bash
docker login -u <deploy-token-username> -p <deploy-token> registry.gitlab.com

```
### 6. Job Tokens (CI/CD)
Temporary tokens for CI/CD job authentication.
#### Using CI_JOB_TOKEN
**API requests in CI**:
```yaml
test-api:
script:
- |
curl --header "JOB-TOKEN: $CI_JOB_TOKEN" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/$CI_PROJECT_ID"
```

}' \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/:id/access_tokens"
```
### 9. LDAP Authentication
Enterprise edition feature for LDAP/Active Directory integration.
#### LDAP Configuration
**`/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`**:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['ldap_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['ldap_servers'] = YAML.load <<-EOS
main:
label: 'LDAP'
host: 'ldap.example.com'
port: 636
uid: 'sAMAccountName'
encryption: 'simple_tls'
verify_certificates: true
bind_dn: 'CN=query user,OU=Users,DC=example,DC=com'
password: 'password'
active_directory: true
base: 'OU=Users,DC=example,DC=com'
user_filter: '(memberOf=CN=GitLab Users,OU=Groups,DC=example,DC=com)'
EOS
```
### 10. SAML Authentication
Enterprise edition SAML SSO support.
#### SAML Configuration
**`/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`**:
```ruby
gitlab_rails['omniauth_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['omniauth_allow_single_sign_on'] = ['saml']
gitlab_rails['omniauth_block_auto_created_users'] = false
gitlab_rails['omniauth_providers'] = [
{
name: 'saml',
args: {
assertion_consumer_service_url: 'https://gitlab.example.com/users/auth/saml/callback',
idp_cert_fingerprint: 'XX:XX:XX...',
idp_sso_target_url: 'https://idp.example.com/sso',
issuer: 'https://gitlab.example.com',
name_identifier_format: 'urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:nameid-format:persistent'
},
label: 'Company SSO'
}
]
```
## Security Best Practices
### Token Management
1. **Minimize Scope**: Use least privilege principle
2. **Set Expiration**: Always set token expiration dates
3. **Rotate Regularly**: Rotate tokens on schedule
4. **Secure Storage**: Use secret managers (Vault, AWS Secrets Manager)
5. **Monitor Usage**: Audit token usage regularly
6. **Revoke Unused**: Remove tokens no longer needed
### Secure Token Storage
**Environment Variables**:
```bash
export GITLAB_TOKEN="your_token"
```
**Git Credentials**:
```bash
# Store credentials securely
git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout=3600'
```
**Python example**:
```python
import os
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
GITLAB_TOKEN = os.getenv('GITLAB_TOKEN')
```
**Docker Secrets**:
```bash
echo "your_token" | docker secret create gitlab_token -
```
### Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
#### Enabling 2FA
1. Navigate to User Settings > Account > Two-Factor Authentication
2. Scan QR code with authenticator app
3. Enter verification code
4. Save recovery codes securely
#### Using 2FA with Git
When 2FA is enabled, use:
- Personal access tokens instead of passwords
- SSH keys for Git operations
```bash
# Use token as password
git clone https://oauth2:<your_token>@gitlab.com/username/project.git
```
### IP Allowlisting
Restrict API access by IP address (Premium/Ultimate).
**Group/Instance Settings**:
1. Navigate to Settings > General > Allowed IP addresses
2. Add IP ranges
3. Save changes
## API Authentication Examples
### Python (requests library)
```python
import requests
class GitLabClient:
def __init__(self, token, base_url="https://gitlab.com"):
self.token = token
self.base_url = base_url
self.headers = {"PRIVATE-TOKEN": token}
def get(self, endpoint):
url = f"{self.base_url}/api/v4/{endpoint}"
response = requests.get(url, headers=self.headers)
response.raise_for_status()
return response.json()
def post(self, endpoint, data):
url = f"{self.base_url}/api/v4/{endpoint}"
response = requests.post(url, headers=self.headers, json=data)
response.raise_for_status()
return response.json()
# Usage
client = GitLabClient(token="your_token")
projects = client.get("projects")
```
### JavaScript (fetch API)
```javascript
class GitLabClient {
constructor(token, baseURL = 'https://gitlab.com') {
this.token = token;
this.baseURL = baseURL;
}
async get(endpoint) {
const response = await fetch(`${this.baseURL}/api/v4/${endpoint}`, {
headers: {
'PRIVATE-TOKEN': this.token
}
});
if (!response.ok) {
throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
}
return await response.json();
}
async post(endpoint, data) {
const response = await fetch(`${this.baseURL}/api/v4/${endpoint}`, {
method: 'POST',
headers: {
'PRIVATE-TOKEN': this.token,
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
},
body: JSON.stringify(data)
});
if (!response.ok) {
throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
}
return await response.json();
}
}
// Usage
const client = new GitLabClient('your_token');
const projects = await client.get('projects');
```
### Go
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/xanzy/go-gitlab"
)
func main() {
git, err := gitlab.NewClient("your_token")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// List projects
projects, _, err := git.Projects.ListProjects(&gitlab.ListProjectsOptions{})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
for _, project := range projects {
fmt.Printf("Project: %s\n", project.Name)
}
}
```
### Ruby
```ruby
require 'gitlab'
# Initialize client
Gitlab.configure do |config|
config.endpoint = 'https://gitlab.com/api/v4'
config.private_token = 'your_token'
end
# List projects
projects = Gitlab.projects
projects.each do |project|
puts "Project: #{project.name}"
end
```
## Troubleshooting
### Common Authentication Issues
**1. 401 Unauthorized**
- Verify token is valid and not expired
- Check token has required scopes
- Ensure token is included in request headers
**2. 403 Forbidden**
- Check user permissions on resource
- Verify token scope includes required access
- For protected resources, check branch protection rules
**3. SSH Connection Failed**
- Verify SSH key is added to GitLab
- Check SSH agent is running
- Test connection: `ssh -T git@gitlab.com`
- Verify SSH key permissions (600 for private key)
**4. Token Not Working with 2FA**
- Use personal access token instead of password
- Or use SSH keys for Git operations
**5. Deploy Token Issues**
- Verify token hasn't expired
- Check token scopes match operation
- Ensure token is enabled in project settings

## Best Practices
### 1. Pipeline Efficiency
- **Use caching**: Cache dependencies to speed up builds
- **Parallel jobs**: Run independent jobs in parallel
- **Artifacts**: Only include necessary files
- **DAG pipelines**: Use `needs` to avoid waiting for entire stages
### 2. Security
- **Protected variables**: Use protected variables for secrets
- **Masked variables**: Mask sensitive values in logs
- **Security scanning**: Include SAST, dependency scanning, etc.
- **Least privilege**: Give jobs minimum necessary permissions
### 3. Reliability
- **Retry failed jobs**: Configure retry for flaky tests
- **Timeouts**: Set appropriate timeouts
- **Failure handling**: Use `allow_failure` for optional jobs
- **Health checks**: Test deployments after deployment
### 4. Maintainability
- **DRY principle**: Use extends and templates
- **Includes**: Separate common configuration
- **Documentation**: Comment complex configurations
- **Consistent naming**: Use clear, consistent job names
### 5. Testing
- **Test early**: Run fast tests first
- **Parallel testing**: Split test suites
- **Test coverage**: Track and enforce coverage
- **Multiple environments**: Test on different OS/versions
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
1. **Job stuck in pending**
- Check runner availability
- Verify runner tags match job tags
- Check runner capacity
2. **Cache not working**
- Verify cache key
- Check cache path
- Ensure runner has cache configured
3. **Artifacts not available**
- Check artifact expiration
- Verify artifact paths
- Ensure job completed successfully
4. **Variables not expanding**
- Check variable syntax ($VARIABLE or ${VARIABLE})
- Verify variable scope (global, job, protected)
- Check variable precedence
5. **Docker issues**
- Verify docker:dind service is running
- Check Docker TLS configuration
- Ensure sufficient disk space
### Debugging
```yaml
debug-job:
script:
# Print all environment variables
- env | sort
# Print specific variables
- echo $CI_COMMIT_SHA
- echo $CI_PIPELINE_ID
# Print working directory
- pwd
- ls -la
# Check cache
- ls -la node_modules/ || echo "Cache not present"
```

# GitLab Container Registry Reference
## Overview
GitLab Container Registry is a secure Docker image registry built into GitLab, allowing you to store and manage Docker images.
## Registry URL Format
```
registry.gitlab.com/namespace/project
```
For self-hosted:
```
registry.your-domain.com/namespace/project
```
## Authentication
### Docker Login
```bash
# Using personal access token
docker login registry.gitlab.com -u <username> -p <token>
# Using deploy token
docker login registry.gitlab.com -u <deploy-token-username> -p <deploy-token>
# In CI/CD (automatic)
docker login -u $CI_REGISTRY_USER -p $CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY
```
### Token Scopes
Personal Access Token needs:
- `read_registry` - Pull images
- `write_registry` - Push images
Deploy Token needs:
- `read_registry` - Pull images
- `write_registry` - Push images
## Building and Pushing Images
### Basic Docker Build
```yaml
# .gitlab-ci.yml
build:
stage: build
image: docker:latest
services:
- docker:dind
variables:
DOCKER_TLS_CERTDIR: "/certs"
before_script:
- docker login -u $CI_REGISTRY_USER -p $CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY
script:
- docker build -t $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA .
- docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
```
### Multi-Stage Build
**Dockerfile**:
```dockerfile
# Build stage
FROM node:18 AS builder
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci
COPY . .
RUN npm run build
# Production stage
FROM node:18-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY --from=builder /app/dist ./dist
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci --production
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["node", "dist/server.js"]
```
### Tagging Strategy
```yaml
build:
script:
# Commit SHA tag
- docker build -t $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA .
- docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
# Branch name tag
- docker tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_REF_SLUG
- docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_REF_SLUG
# Latest tag (main branch only)
- |
if [ "$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH" == "main" ]; then
docker tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:latest
docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:latest
fi
# Version tag (for tags)
- |
if [ -n "$CI_COMMIT_TAG" ]; then
docker tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_TAG
docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_TAG
fi
```
## Pulling Images
### Pull from Registry
```bash
# Pull specific tag
docker pull registry.gitlab.com/group/project:tag
# Pull latest
docker pull registry.gitlab.com/group/project:latest
# Pull by SHA
docker pull registry.gitlab.com/group/project@sha256:abc123...
```
### Use in CI/CD
```yaml
test:
image: $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:latest
script:
- npm test
```
### Use in Docker Compose
```yaml
version: '3.8'
services:
app:
image: registry.gitlab.com/group/project:latest
ports:
- "3000:3000"
environment:
- NODE_ENV=production
```
## Registry Management
### List Repository Tags
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/registry/repositories/:repository_id/tags"
```
### Get Tag Details
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/registry/repositories/:repository_id/tags/:tag_name"
```
### Delete Tag
```bash
curl --request DELETE --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/registry/repositories/:repository_id/tags/:tag_name"
```
### Delete Tags in Bulk
```bash
# Delete by regex
curl --request DELETE --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/registry/repositories/:repository_id/tags" \
--data "name_regex=.*-dev" \
--data "keep_n=5" \
--data "older_than=7d"
```
## Cleanup Policies
### Configure Cleanup Policy
**Via UI**:
1. Project Settings > Packages & Registries > Container Registry
2. Configure cleanup policy
3. Set rules
**Via API**:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/registry/repositories/:repository_id" \
--data "cadence=1d" \
--data "keep_n=10" \
--data "older_than=30d" \
--data "name_regex=.*-dev" \
--data "name_regex_keep=.*-stable"
```
**Policy options**:
- `cadence`: How often to run (1d, 7d, 14d, 1month, 3month)
- `keep_n`: Keep N most recent tags
- `older_than`: Delete tags older than specified time
- `name_regex`: Regex for tags to delete
- `name_regex_keep`: Regex for tags to keep
### Cleanup Example
```yaml
# Keep production tags forever
# Delete dev/feature tags after 7 days
# Keep last 5 tags per branch
cleanup_policy:
enabled: true
cadence: 1d
keep_n: 5
older_than: 7d
name_regex: '^(?!main|prod|release).*'
name_regex_keep: '^(main|prod|release-.*|v\d+\.\d+\.\d+)$'
```
## Registry Access Control
### Project-Level Access
Members inherit registry permissions from project role:
- Guest: No access
- Reporter: Pull images
- Developer: Pull and push images
- Maintainer: Full access
- Owner: Full access
### Deploy Tokens
Create deploy tokens for automation:
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/deploy_tokens" \
--data "name=Registry Token" \
--data "scopes[]=read_registry" \
--data "scopes[]=write_registry" \
--data "expires_at=2025-12-31"
```
Use in CI/CD:
```yaml
variables:
REGISTRY_TOKEN_USER: "deploy-token-user"
REGISTRY_TOKEN_PASS: "deploy-token-password"
deploy:
script:
- docker login -u $REGISTRY_TOKEN_USER -p $REGISTRY_TOKEN_PASS $CI_REGISTRY
- docker pull $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
```
## Building with Kaniko
Alternative to Docker-in-Docker:
```yaml
build:
stage: build
image:
name: gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor:debug
entrypoint: [""]
script:
- mkdir -p /kaniko/.docker
- echo "{\"auths\":{\"${CI_REGISTRY}\":{\"auth\":\"$(printf "%s:%s" "${CI_REGISTRY_USER}" "${CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD}" | base64 | tr -d '\n')\"}}}" > /kaniko/.docker/config.json
- /kaniko/executor
--context "${CI_PROJECT_DIR}"
--dockerfile "${CI_PROJECT_DIR}/Dockerfile"
--destination "${CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE}:${CI_COMMIT_TAG}"
--cache=true
--cache-ttl=24h
```
**Advantages**:
- No Docker daemon needed
- More secure (no privileged mode)
- Better for Kubernetes
- Built-in caching
## Building with Buildah
Daemonless container builds:
```yaml
build:
stage: build
image: quay.io/buildah/stable
script:
- buildah login -u $CI_REGISTRY_USER -p $CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY
- buildah bud -t $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA .
- buildah push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
```
## Multi-Platform Images
### Build for Multiple Architectures
```yaml
build-multiarch:
stage: build
image: docker:latest
services:
- docker:dind
before_script:
- docker login -u $CI_REGISTRY_USER -p $CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY
- docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static --reset -p yes
- docker buildx create --use
script:
- docker buildx build
--platform linux/amd64,linux/arm64,linux/arm/v7
--tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
--tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:latest
--push .
```
## Image Scanning
### Container Scanning
```yaml
include:
- template: Security/Container-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
variables:
CS_IMAGE: $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
container_scanning:
dependencies:
- build
```
### Trivy Scanner
```yaml
trivy_scan:
stage: test
image:
name: aquasec/trivy:latest
entrypoint: [""]
script:
- trivy image --exit-code 0 --no-progress $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
- trivy image --exit-code 1 --severity CRITICAL --no-progress $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
```
## Image Signing
### Sign with Cosign
```yaml
sign:
stage: sign
image: gcr.io/projectsigstore/cosign:latest
script:
- echo "$COSIGN_KEY" > cosign.key
- cosign sign --key cosign.key $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
```
### Verify Signature
```bash
cosign verify --key cosign.pub registry.gitlab.com/group/project:tag
```
## Registry Storage
### Configure Storage Backend
**Local storage**:
```ruby
# /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
registry['storage'] = {
'filesystem' => {
'rootdirectory' => '/var/opt/gitlab/gitlab-rails/shared/registry'
}
}
```
**S3 storage**:
```ruby
registry['storage'] = {
's3' => {
'accesskey' => 'AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE',
'secretkey' => 'wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY',
'bucket' => 'gitlab-registry',
'region' => 'us-east-1'
}
}
```
**GCS storage**:
```ruby
registry['storage'] = {
'gcs' => {
'bucket' => 'gitlab-registry',
'keyfile' => '/path/to/keyfile.json'
}
}
```
**Azure storage**:
```ruby
registry['storage'] = {
'azure' => {
'accountname' => 'accountname',
'accountkey' => 'base64encodedaccountkey',
'container' => 'gitlab-registry'
}
}
```
## Registry Mirroring
### Pull from External Registry
```yaml
variables:
DOCKER_AUTH_CONFIG: |
{
"auths": {
"docker.io": {
"auth": "$(echo -n $DOCKERHUB_USER:$DOCKERHUB_PASSWORD | base64)"
}
}
}
build:
script:
# Pull from Docker Hub
- docker pull nginx:alpine
# Tag for GitLab registry
- docker tag nginx:alpine $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE/nginx:alpine
# Push to GitLab registry
- docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE/nginx:alpine
```
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
**1. Authentication Failed**
```bash
# Clear Docker credentials
rm ~/.docker/config.json
# Re-authenticate
docker login registry.gitlab.com
```
**2. Push Denied**
```bash
# Check token permissions
# Ensure token has write_registry scope
# Verify project access level
```
**3. Image Not Found**
```bash
# Verify image path
docker pull registry.gitlab.com/namespace/project:tag
# Check tag exists
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/registry/repositories"
```
**4. Storage Issues**
```bash
# Check disk space
df -h /var/opt/gitlab
# Run garbage collection
gitlab-rake gitlab:cleanup:container_registry
```
### Enable Debug Logging
```ruby
# /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
registry['log_level'] = 'debug'
registry['log_formatter'] = 'json'
```
## Best Practices
### 1. Image Size Optimization
```dockerfile
# Use minimal base images
FROM alpine:latest
# Multi-stage builds
FROM node:18 AS builder
# ... build steps ...
FROM node:18-alpine
COPY --from=builder /app/dist ./dist
# Remove unnecessary files
RUN rm -rf /tmp/* /var/cache/apk/*
# Combine RUN commands
RUN apk add --no-cache curl && \
curl -o file.tar.gz https://example.com/file.tar.gz && \
tar -xzf file.tar.gz && \
rm file.tar.gz
```
### 2. Security
- Scan all images
- Use specific tags (not latest)
- Sign images
- Regularly update base images
- Remove old images
### 3. Tagging
- Use semantic versioning for releases
- Include commit SHA for traceability
- Tag by environment (dev, staging, prod)
- Cleanup temporary tags
### 4. CI/CD Integration
```yaml
stages:
- build
- test
- scan
- deploy
build:
stage: build
script:
- docker build -t $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA .
- docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
test:
stage: test
image: $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
script:
- npm test
scan:
stage: scan
variables:
CS_IMAGE: $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
include:
- template: Security/Container-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
deploy:
stage: deploy
script:
- docker tag $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:latest
- docker push $CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:latest
only:
- main
```
## Registry API Reference

# GitLab Pages Reference
## Overview
GitLab Pages allows you to host static websites directly from your GitLab repository. Perfect for documentation, portfolios, blogs, and landing pages.
## Pages URL Format
**GitLab.com**:
```
https://username.gitlab.io/project-name
```
**Custom domain**:
```
https://www.example.com
```
**Group pages**:
```
https://groupname.gitlab.io
```
## Creating a Pages Site
### Basic Setup
**.gitlab-ci.yml**:
```yaml
pages:
stage: deploy
script:
- mkdir .public
- cp -r * .public
- mv .public public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH
```
**Requirements**:
1. Job must be named `pages`
2. Must create `public/` directory
3. Must have artifact with `public/` path
4. Runs on default branch (usually main)
### Static HTML
**index.html**:
```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My GitLab Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome!</h1>
<p>This is hosted on GitLab Pages</p>
</body>
</html>
```
**.gitlab-ci.yml**:
```yaml
pages:
stage: deploy

```
## Custom Domain Setup
### Add Custom Domain
**Via UI**:
1. Settings > Pages
2. New Domain
3. Enter domain name
4. Save
**Via API**:
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/pages/domains" \
--data "domain=www.example.com"
```
### DNS Configuration
**For root domain (example.com)**:
```
Type: A
Name: @
Value: 35.185.44.232
```
**For subdomain (www.example.com)**:
```
Type: CNAME
Name: www
Value: username.gitlab.io
```
**Verify DNS**:
```bash
dig www.example.com
nslookup www.example.com
```
### SSL/TLS Certificate
**Automatic Let's Encrypt**:
1. Add custom domain
2. Configure DNS
3. Enable "Automatic certificate management using Let's Encrypt"
**Manual certificate**:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/pages/domains/www.example.com" \
--form "certificate=@/path/to/cert.pem" \
--form "key=@/path/to/key.pem"
```
## Access Control
### Private Pages
Require authentication to access pages (Premium/Ultimate):
**Enable private pages**:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id" \
--data "pages_access_level=private"
```
**Access levels**:
- `public` - Anyone can access
- `private` - Only project members
- `enabled` - Controlled by project visibility
- `disabled` - Pages disabled
### Authentication
When pages are private:
- Users must log in to GitLab
- Project members can access
- Access controlled by member permissions
## Preview Environments
Create preview for merge requests:
```yaml
pages:
stage: deploy
script:
- npm run build
- mv dist public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH
pages:preview:
stage: deploy
script:
- npm run build
- mv dist public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
environment:
name: review/$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME
url: https://$CI_PROJECT_ROOT_NAMESPACE.gitlab.io/-/$CI_PROJECT_NAME/-/jobs/$CI_JOB_ID/artifacts/public/index.html
rules:
- if: $CI_MERGE_REQUEST_ID
```
## Advanced Configuration
### Custom 404 Page
Create `public/404.html`:
```html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Not Found</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>404 - Page Not Found</h1>
<p>The page you're looking for doesn't exist.</p>
<a href="/">Go Home</a>
</body>
</html>
```
### Redirects
Create `public/_redirects`:
```
# Redirect /old-page to /new-page
/old-page /new-page 301
# Redirect with wildcards
/blog/* /news/:splat 301
# Conditional redirects
/api/* https://api.example.com/:splat 200
# Country-based redirects
/ /us 302 Country=us
/ /uk 302 Country=uk
```
### Headers
Create `public/_headers`:
```
# Security headers
/*
X-Frame-Options: DENY
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
Referrer-Policy: no-referrer-when-downgrade
# Cache control
/static/*
Cache-Control: public, max-age=31536000, immutable
# CORS
/api/*
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, OPTIONS
```
### Base URL Configuration
For subdirectory deployment:
**Hugo**:
```toml
# config.toml
baseURL = "https://username.gitlab.io/project-name/"
```
**Jekyll**:
```yaml
# _config.yml
baseurl: "/project-name"
url: "https://username.gitlab.io"
```
**VuePress**:
```js
// .vuepress/config.js
module.exports = {
base: '/project-name/',
}
```
## Optimization
### Image Optimization
```yaml
pages:
before_script:
- npm install -g sharp-cli
script:
- |
find public -name '*.jpg' -o -name '*.png' | while read img; do
sharp -i "$img" -o "$img" resize 1920
done
```
### Minification
```yaml
pages:
script:
- npm run build
- npm install -g html-minifier clean-css-cli uglify-js
- |
find public -name '*.html' -exec html-minifier --collapse-whitespace --remove-comments --minify-css --minify-js {} -o {} \;
find public -name '*.css' -exec cleancss -o {} {} \;
find public -name '*.js' -exec uglifyjs {} -c -m -o {} \;
```
### Compression
```yaml
pages:
script:
- npm run build
- mv dist public
- find public -type f -regex '.*\.\(htm\|html\|txt\|text\|js\|css\|svg\|json\)$' -exec gzip -f -k {} \;
- find public -type f -regex '.*\.\(htm\|html\|txt\|text\|js\|css\|svg\|json\)$' -exec brotli -f -k {} \;
```
## CI/CD Examples
### Multi-Branch Deployment
```yaml
pages:
stage: deploy
script:
- npm run build
- mv dist public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "main"
pages:staging:
stage: deploy
script:
- npm run build
- mv dist public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
environment:
name: staging
url: https://staging.example.com
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "staging"
```
### Conditional Deployment
```yaml
pages:
stage: deploy
script:
- |
if [ "$CI_COMMIT_BRANCH" == "main" ]; then
export NODE_ENV=production
else
export NODE_ENV=development
fi
- npm run build
- mv dist public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH
```
### Scheduled Rebuild
```yaml
pages:
script:
- npm run build
- mv dist public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "main"
- if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "schedule"
```
## Monitoring
### Analytics
Add Google Analytics:
```html
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=GA_MEASUREMENT_ID"></script>
<script>
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', 'GA_MEASUREMENT_ID');
</script>
```
### Status Checks
```yaml
test:pages:
stage: test
script:
- npm run build
- npm run test
- |
# Check for broken links
npm install -g broken-link-checker
blc http://localhost:8000 -ro
```
## Troubleshooting
### Pages Not Updating
1. Check pipeline succeeded
2. Verify `pages` job ran
3. Check artifacts were created
4. Clear browser cache
5. Wait for CDN propagation (up to 30 minutes)
### 404 Errors
1. Verify file exists in `public/` directory
2. Check file paths (case-sensitive)
3. Verify artifact includes files
4. Check baseURL configuration
### Custom Domain Issues
1. Verify DNS configuration: `dig www.example.com`
2. Check SSL certificate status
3. Ensure domain verified in GitLab
4. Check domain registrar settings
5. Wait for DNS propagation (up to 48 hours)
### Build Failures
```yaml
pages:
script:
- set -e # Exit on error
- npm install
- npm run build || (echo "Build failed" && exit 1)
- mv dist public
artifacts:
paths:
- public
when: on_success
```
## Best Practices
### 1. Performance
- Optimize images
- Minify CSS/JS
- Enable compression
- Use CDN
- Implement caching
### 2. Security
- Use HTTPS (automatic with Let's Encrypt)
- Set security headers
- Validate user input (if using forms)
- Keep dependencies updated
### 3. SEO
```html
<meta name="description" content="Site description">
<meta name="keywords" content="keywords, here">
<meta property="og:title" content="Page Title">
<meta property="og:description" content="Description">
<meta property="og:image" content="https://example.com/image.jpg">
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image">
<!-- Robots -->
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow">
<!-- Canonical URL -->
<link rel="canonical" href="https://example.com/page">
```
### 4. Accessibility
- Use semantic HTML
- Add alt text to images
- Ensure keyboard navigation
- Maintain color contrast
- Test with screen readers
### 5. Version Control
```yaml
pages:
script:
- echo "Build $CI_COMMIT_SHA on $(date)" > public/version.txt
- npm run build
```

### Draft/WIP Merge Requests
Mark as draft:
```bash
# In title
Draft: Add feature
WIP: Add feature
# Via API
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid" \
--data "draft=true"
```
Remove draft status:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid" \
--data "draft=false"
```
### Assignees and Reviewers
**Assignees**: Responsible for the MR
**Reviewers**: Review and approve the MR
```bash
# Set assignees
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid" \
--data "assignee_ids[]=123" \
--data "assignee_ids[]=456"
# Set reviewers
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid" \
--data "reviewer_ids[]=789"
```
### Labels and Milestones
```bash
# Add labels
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid" \
--data "labels=bug,feature,priority::high"
# Set milestone
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid" \
--data "milestone_id=10"
```
## Code Review
### Comments and Discussions
**Add comment**:
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/notes" \
--data "body=Looks good!"
```
**Add line comment**:

- Must resolve all before merging (if required)
```bash
# Resolve discussion
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/discussions/:discussion_id" \
--data "resolved=true"
```
### Suggestions
Apply code suggestions in reviews:
```markdown
```suggestion
const result = calculate(x, y);
return result * 2;
```
```
Apply suggestion:
- Click "Apply suggestion" button
- Or use API to apply
**Batch apply suggestions**:
1. Select multiple suggestions
2. Click "Apply X suggestions"
3. Commit with single commit
### Code Quality Reports
View code quality changes:
- New issues introduced
- Resolved issues
- Code quality score
Requires CI/CD job with code quality report:
```yaml
code_quality:
image: docker:stable
services:
- docker:stable-dind
script:
- docker run --env SOURCE_CODE="$PWD" --volume "$PWD":/code \
--volume /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ci-cd/codequality:latest /code
artifacts:
reports:
codequality: gl-code-quality-report.json
```
## Merge Request Approvals
### Configure Approval Rules
**Via UI**:
1. Project Settings > Merge requests > Approval rules
2. Add rule
3. Set required approvers
4. Set approval count
**Via API**:
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/approval_rules" \
--data "name=Security Review" \
--data "approvals_required=2" \
--data "user_ids[]=123" \
--data "user_ids[]=456"
```
### Approve Merge Request
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/approve"
```
### Unapprove
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/unapprove"
```
### Approval Settings
**Require approvals**:
- Number of approvals needed
- Eligible approvers
- Approval groups
- Code owner approvals
**Prevent self-approval**:
- Author cannot approve own MR
**Prevent committer approval**:
- Users who committed cannot approve
**Require new approvals when pushed**:
- Reset approvals on new commits
## Merge Strategies
### Merge Commit
Creates merge commit with two parents:
```
C---D feature
/ \
A---B-------E main
```
### Fast-Forward Merge
No merge commit when possible:
```
A---B---C---D main
(was feature)
```
### Squash and Merge
Combines all commits into one:
```
A---B---C main
(squashed feature commits)
```
**Configure in MR**:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid" \
--data "squash=true"
```
### Semi-Linear Merge
Rebase then merge (no fast-forward):
```
C'--D' feature
/ \
A---B-------E main
```
## Merging
### Merge When Pipeline Succeeds
Automatically merge after pipeline passes:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/merge" \
--data "merge_when_pipeline_succeeds=true" \
--data "should_remove_source_branch=true"
```
### Manual Merge
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/merge" \
--data "squash=true" \
--data "should_remove_source_branch=true" \
--data "merge_commit_message=Custom merge message"
```
### Merge Trains
Queue merges to prevent breaking main branch:
**Enable merge trains**:
1. Project Settings > Merge requests
2. Enable "Merged results pipelines"
3. Enable "Merge trains"
Benefits:
- Serialized merging
- Pipeline runs against merged result
- Prevents breaking main branch
- Automatic rebase
## Merge Conflicts
### View Conflicts
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/conflicts"
```
### Resolve Conflicts via UI
1. View MR with conflicts
2. Click "Resolve conflicts"
3. Choose conflict resolution
4. Commit resolution
### Resolve Conflicts Locally
```bash
# Fetch latest changes
git fetch origin
# Checkout source branch
git checkout feature-branch
# Merge or rebase
git merge origin/main
# or
git rebase origin/main
# Resolve conflicts in files
# Add resolved files
git add .
# Complete merge/rebase
git commit # for merge
git rebase --continue # for rebase
# Push
git push origin feature-branch
```
## Merge Request Diff
### View Diff
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid/changes"
```
### Diff Options
- **Inline diff**: Side-by-side comparison
- **Side-by-side diff**: Parallel view
- **File by file**: Navigate file by file
- **Ignore whitespace**: Skip whitespace changes
### Download Patch
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid.patch" \
-o merge_request.patch
```
### Download Diff
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid.diff" \
-o merge_request.diff
```
## Merge Request Pipelines
### Pipeline for Merged Results
Test merge result before merging:
**.gitlab-ci.yml**:
```yaml
workflow:
rules:
- if: $CI_MERGE_REQUEST_ID
when: always
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == $CI_DEFAULT_BRANCH
when: always
```
### Require Pipeline Success
Configure in project settings:
- Pipelines must succeed
- Required successful jobs
## Merge Request Dependencies
### Depend on Another MR
Use cross-references in description:
```markdown
Depends on !123
Blocked by !456
```
## Merge Request Metrics
### View Metrics
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests/:mr_iid"
```
**Metrics include**:
- Time to merge
- First comment time
- First approve time
- Review time
- Diff stats (additions/deletions)
### Merge Request Analytics
**Project level**:
- Average time to merge
- Throughput
- Open MRs over time
**Group level** (Premium/Ultimate):
- Cross-project metrics
- Team performance
- Bottleneck identification
## Merge Request Automation
### Quick Actions
Use in comments:
- `/approve` - Approve MR
- `/merge` - Merge MR
- `/close` - Close MR
- `/reopen` - Reopen MR
- `/assign @user` - Assign to user
- `/unassign` - Remove assignee
- `/label ~bug` - Add label
- `/unlabel ~bug` - Remove label
- `/milestone %v1.0` - Set milestone
- `/due 2025-12-31` - Set due date
- `/estimate 2h` - Set time estimate
- `/spend 1h` - Add time spent
- `/draft` - Mark as draft
- `/ready` - Remove draft status
### Merge Request Webhooks
Trigger automation on MR events:
```yaml
# Example CI/CD trigger
review-app:
script:
- deploy-review-app.sh
only:
- merge_requests
environment:
name: review/$CI_MERGE_REQUEST_IID
url: https://$CI_MERGE_REQUEST_IID.review.example.com
on_stop: stop-review-app
```
## Code Owners
### CODEOWNERS File
Create `.gitlab/CODEOWNERS`:
```
# Backend team owns all .rb files
*.rb @backend-team
# Frontend team owns React components
/src/components/ @frontend-team
# DevOps owns CI/CD config
/.gitlab-ci.yml @devops
/docker/ @devops
# Security team must approve sensitive files
/config/secrets/ @security-team
/lib/auth/ @security-team
# Everyone in group must approve
/docs/ @group/docs-team
```
**Syntax**:
- `path @user` - User approval
- `path @group` - Group approval
- `path @group/subgroup` - Subgroup approval
### Require Code Owner Approval
1. Project Settings > Merge requests
2. Enable "Require approval from code owners"
3. Code owners must approve changes to their files
## Merge Request Templates
### Create Templates
Create in `.gitlab/merge_request_templates/`:
**Feature.md**:
```markdown
## Feature Description
<!-- What feature does this add? -->
## Implementation Details
<!-- Technical details -->
## Testing
- [ ] Unit tests added
- [ ] Integration tests added
- [ ] Manual testing completed
## Screenshots
<!-- If applicable -->
## Related Issues
Closes #
```
**Bugfix.md**:
```markdown
## Bug Description
<!-- What bug does this fix? -->
## Root Cause
<!-- What caused the bug? -->
## Solution
<!-- How is it fixed? -->
## Testing
- [ ] Bug reproduced
- [ ] Fix verified
- [ ] Regression tests added
Fixes #
```
### Use Template
```bash
# Create MR with template
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/merge_requests" \
--data "source_branch=feature" \
--data "target_branch=main" \
--data "title=Add feature" \
--data "description=$(cat .gitlab/merge_request_templates/Feature.md)"
```
## Best Practices
### 1. Merge Request Size
- Keep MRs focused and small
- Aim for < 400 lines of changes
- Split large features into multiple MRs
- Easier to review and test
### 2. Title and Description

- Consider squashing for cleaner history
- Sign commits for verification
### 4. Review Process
- Request specific reviewers
- Respond to all comments
- Resolve discussions
- Re-request review after changes
- Thank reviewers
### 5. Testing
- Add/update tests
- Ensure CI passes
- Manual testing in review app
- Performance testing if needed
### 6. Documentation
- Update relevant docs
- Add API documentation
- Update CHANGELOG
- Include inline comments
### 7. Communication
- Use discussions for questions

--data "packages_cleanup_policy_attributes[older_than]=90d"
```
## Best Practices
### 1. Versioning
- Use semantic versioning (SemVer)
- Tag releases properly
- Maintain changelog
- Document breaking changes
### 2. Security
- Use deploy tokens for CI/CD
- Rotate tokens regularly
- Scan packages for vulnerabilities
- Sign packages when possible
### 3. Organization
- Use consistent naming
- Group related packages
- Document package usage
- Maintain package metadata
### 4. CI/CD Integration
```yaml
stages:
- build
- test
- publish
build:
stage: build
script:
- npm run build
test:
stage: test
script:
- npm test
publish:
stage: publish
script:
- npm publish
only:
- tags
when: manual
```

# GitLab Runners Reference
## Overview
GitLab Runner is an application that works with GitLab CI/CD to run jobs in a pipeline. Runners can be installed on various platforms and execute jobs in different executors (Docker, Shell, Kubernetes, etc.).
## Runner Types
### Shared Runners
- Available to all projects in a GitLab instance
- Configured by administrators
- Uses shared resources
### Group Runners
- Available to all projects in a group
- Configured at the group level
- Shared within an organization
### Project Runners (Specific Runners)
- Dedicated to a single project
- Complete control over configuration
- Isolated execution environment
## Installation
### Linux
```bash
# Download the binary
sudo curl -L --output /usr/local/bin/gitlab-runner https://gitlab-runner-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/latest/binaries/gitlab-runner-linux-amd64
# Give it permissions to execute
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/gitlab-runner
# Create a GitLab CI user
sudo useradd --comment 'GitLab Runner' --create-home gitlab-runner --shell /bin/bash
# Install and run as service
sudo gitlab-runner install --user=gitlab-runner --working-directory=/home/gitlab-runner
sudo gitlab-runner start
```
### macOS
```bash
# Download
sudo curl --output /usr/local/bin/gitlab-runner https://gitlab-runner-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/latest/binaries/gitlab-runner-darwin-amd64

New-Item -Path 'C:\GitLab-Runner' -ItemType Directory
# Download binary
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://gitlab-runner-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/latest/binaries/gitlab-runner-windows-amd64.exe" -OutFile "C:\GitLab-Runner\gitlab-runner.exe"
# Install as service
cd C:\GitLab-Runner
.\gitlab-runner.exe install
.\gitlab-runner.exe start
```
### Docker
```bash
docker run -d --name gitlab-runner --restart always \
-v /srv/gitlab-runner/config:/etc/gitlab-runner \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
gitlab/gitlab-runner:latest
```
### Kubernetes (Helm)
```bash
# Add GitLab Helm repository
helm repo add gitlab https://charts.gitlab.io
# Update
helm repo update
# Install
helm install --namespace gitlab-runner gitlab-runner \
-f values.yaml \
gitlab/gitlab-runner
```
## Registration
### Register Runner
```bash
gitlab-runner register \
--non-interactive \
--url "https://gitlab.com/" \
--registration-token "PROJECT_REGISTRATION_TOKEN" \
--executor "docker" \
--docker-image alpine:latest \
--description "docker-runner" \
--maintenance-note "Free-form maintainer notes about this runner" \
--tag-list "docker,aws" \
--run-untagged="true" \
--locked="false" \
--access-level="not_protected"
```
### Interactive Registration
```bash
gitlab-runner register
# Follow prompts:
# 1. GitLab instance URL
# 2. Registration token
# 3. Description
# 4. Tags
# 5. Executor type
# 6. Executor-specific questions
```
### Get Registration Token
**Project Runners**:
- Navigate to: Settings > CI/CD > Runners
- Copy registration token
**Group Runners**:
- Navigate to: Group > Settings > CI/CD > Runners
- Copy registration token
**Instance Runners** (Admin):
- Navigate to: Admin Area > Overview > Runners
- Copy registration token
### Unregister Runner
```bash
# By URL and token
gitlab-runner unregister --url "https://gitlab.com/" --token "RUNNER_TOKEN"
# By name
gitlab-runner unregister --name "test-runner"
# Unregister all
gitlab-runner unregister --all-runners
```
## Executors
### Shell Executor
Runs jobs directly on the host machine.
```toml
[[runners]]
name = "shell-runner"
url = "https://gitlab.com/"
token = "RUNNER_TOKEN"
executor = "shell"
```
**Pros**:
- Simple setup
- Fast execution
- Easy debugging
**Cons**:
- Less isolation
- Environment pollution
- Security concerns
### Docker Executor
Runs jobs in Docker containers (recommended).
```toml
[[runners]]
name = "docker-runner"
url = "https://gitlab.com/"
token = "RUNNER_TOKEN"
executor = "docker"
[runners.docker]
tls_verify = false
image = "alpine:latest"
privileged = false
disable_cache = false
volumes = ["/cache"]
shm_size = 0
```
**Pros**:
- Clean environment per job
- Isolated execution
- Consistent builds
- Easy image management
**Cons**:
- Requires Docker
- Slight overhead
### Docker Machine Executor

# Re-create container with same configuration
```
### Runner API Management
**List runners**:
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/runners"
```
**Get runner details**:
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/runners/:id"
```
**Update runner**:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/runners/:id" \
--form "description=new-description" \
--form "active=true" \
--form "tag_list=docker,aws"
```
**Delete runner**:
```bash
curl --request DELETE --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/runners/:id"
```
## Caching
### Local Cache
```toml
[[runners]]
executor = "docker"
[runners.cache]
Type = "local"
Path = "/cache"
Shared = true
[runners.cache.local]
```
### S3 Cache
```toml
[[runners]]
executor = "docker"
[runners.cache]
Type = "s3"
Path = "runner"
Shared = true
[runners.cache.s3]
ServerAddress = "s3.amazonaws.com"
AccessKey = "AWS_ACCESS_KEY"
SecretKey = "AWS_SECRET_KEY"
BucketName = "runners-cache"
BucketLocation = "us-east-1"
```
### Google Cloud Storage Cache
```toml
[[runners]]
executor = "docker"
[runners.cache]
Type = "gcs"
Path = "runner"
Shared = true
[runners.cache.gcs]
AccessID = "cache-access-account@test-project-123456.iam.gserviceaccount.com"
PrivateKey = "/path/to/key.json"
BucketName = "runners-cache"
```
### Azure Cache
```toml
[[runners]]
executor = "docker"
[runners.cache]
Type = "azure"
Path = "runner"
Shared = true
[runners.cache.azure]
AccountName = "account-name"
AccountKey = "account-key"
ContainerName = "runners-cache"
```
## Security
### Protected Runners
- Only run jobs on protected branches/tags
- Configure in project/group settings
- Prevents unauthorized job execution
```toml
[[runners]]
# Runner configuration
access_level = "ref_protected"
```
### Locked Runners
- Prevents runner from being enabled for other projects
- Useful for dedicated project runners
**Via UI**: Runner settings > Lock to current projects
**Via API**:
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/runners/:id" \
--form "locked=true"
```
### Runner Tags
Control which runners execute which jobs:
**.gitlab-ci.yml**:
```yaml
job-name:
tags:
- docker
- linux
script:
- echo "Running on tagged runner"
```
**Runner configuration**:
```toml
[[runners]]
name = "docker-linux-runner"
# Tags assigned during registration or via config
```
### Privileged Mode
Allows Docker-in-Docker but has security implications:
```toml
[[runners]]
executor = "docker"
[runners.docker]
privileged = true # Use with caution
```
**Security considerations**:
- Container escapes possible
- Host system access
- Use only when necessary
- Prefer rootless Docker
## Monitoring
### Prometheus Metrics
Enable metrics in config:
```toml
listen_address = ":9252"
```
**Metrics endpoint**: `http://runner-host:9252/metrics`
**Key metrics**:
- `gitlab_runner_jobs` - Running jobs
- `gitlab_runner_job_duration_seconds` - Job duration
- `gitlab_runner_errors_total` - Error count
- `gitlab_runner_api_request_statuses_total` - API request statuses
### Logging
```toml
# Logging level
log_level = "info" # debug, info, warning, error, fatal, panic
# Log format
log_format = "text" # text or json
```
**View logs**:
```bash
# Service logs (systemd)
sudo journalctl -u gitlab-runner -f
# Docker logs
docker logs -f gitlab-runner
```
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
**1. Runner not picking up jobs**
- Check runner is registered: `gitlab-runner verify`
- Verify runner is active in GitLab UI
- Check tags match job requirements
- Ensure runner has capacity (concurrent jobs)
**2. Docker executor issues**
- Verify Docker is running: `docker ps`
- Check Docker socket permissions
- Ensure Docker image is accessible
- Check network connectivity
**3. Permission errors**
- Check gitlab-runner user permissions
- Verify working directory permissions
- Check cache directory permissions
**4. Out of disk space**
- Clear old Docker images: `docker system prune -a`
- Check cache size
- Monitor disk usage
**5. SSL certificate errors**
- Add certificate to system: `gitlab-runner register --tls-ca-file=/path/to/ca.crt`
- Or disable verification (not recommended): `tls_verify = false`
### Debug Mode
```bash
# Run in debug mode
gitlab-runner --debug run
# Single job debug
gitlab-runner --debug run-single
```
### Health Check
```bash
# Verify runner can connect to GitLab
gitlab-runner verify
# Delete invalid runners
gitlab-runner verify --delete
```
## Best Practices
### 1. Runner Configuration
- Use Docker executor for isolation
- Configure appropriate concurrent jobs limit
- Set up distributed cache (S3, GCS)
- Use helper image from registry
- Configure resource limits
### 2. Security
- Use protected runners for sensitive jobs
- Lock runners to specific projects
- Avoid privileged mode when possible
- Rotate runner tokens regularly
- Use runner tags effectively
### 3. Performance
- Enable distributed caching
- Use local Docker image cache
- Configure appropriate timeout values
- Monitor runner metrics
- Scale runners based on load
### 4. Maintenance
- Keep runners updated
- Monitor disk space
- Clean up old Docker images
- Review runner logs regularly
- Set up alerts for runner failures
### 5. High Availability
- Deploy multiple runners
- Use auto-scaling (Docker Machine, Kubernetes)
- Configure health checks
- Implement monitoring
- Plan for failover
## Auto-Scaling
### Docker Machine Auto-Scaling
```toml
[[runners]]
limit = 10 # Maximum runners
executor = "docker+machine"
[runners.machine]
IdleCount = 2 # Idle machines to keep
IdleTime = 600 # Seconds before removing idle machine
MaxBuilds = 100 # Max builds per machine before removal
MachineDriver = "amazonec2"
MachineName = "gitlab-docker-machine-%s"
MachineOptions = [
"amazonec2-instance-type=t2.medium",
"amazonec2-region=us-east-1",
"amazonec2-vpc-id=vpc-xxxxx",
"amazonec2-subnet-id=subnet-xxxxx",
"amazonec2-zone=a",
"amazonec2-security-group=gitlab-runner"
]
# Periods when auto-scaling is active
[[runners.machine.autoscaling]]
Periods = ["* * 9-17 * * mon-fri *"] # Business hours
IdleCount = 5
IdleTime = 600
Timezone = "America/New_York"
[[runners.machine.autoscaling]]
Periods = ["* * * * * sat,sun *"] # Weekends
IdleCount = 1
IdleTime = 300
```
### Kubernetes Auto-Scaling
Kubernetes handles scaling automatically based on resource requests.

## Compliance Features
### Compliance Framework
Define compliance requirements (Ultimate):
```yaml
compliance_framework:
name: "SOC 2"
description: "SOC 2 compliance requirements"
color: "#1aaa55"
default: false
pipeline_configuration_full_path: ".gitlab/compliance/soc2.yml"
```
### Compliance Pipeline
```yaml
# .gitlab/compliance/soc2.yml
include:
- template: Security/SAST.gitlab-ci.yml
- template: Security/Dependency-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
- template: Security/License-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
compliance_audit:
stage: test
script:
- audit-compliance.sh
rules:
- if: $CI_COMMIT_BRANCH == "main"
```
### Audit Events
Track security-related activities:
```bash
# Get audit events
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/audit_events"
# Group audit events
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/:id/audit_events"
```
**Tracked events**:
- Member additions/removals
- Permission changes
- Protected branch changes
- Security scan results
- Compliance violations
- And more...
## Security Best Practices
### 1. Enable All Scanners
```yaml
include:
- template: Security/SAST.gitlab-ci.yml
- template: Security/Dependency-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
- template: Security/Secret-Detection.gitlab-ci.yml
- template: Security/Container-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
- template: Security/License-Scanning.gitlab-ci.yml
```
### 2. Block Merges on Critical Issues
Configure merge request approvals:
- Require approval from security team
- Block merges with critical vulnerabilities
- Require all security checks to pass
### 3. Regular Dependency Updates
```yaml
dependency_update:
stage: maintain
script:
- bundle update
- npm update
rules:
- if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "schedule"
only:
variables:
- $DEPENDENCY_UPDATE == "true"
```
### 4. Secret Management
Use CI/CD variables for secrets:
- Mark as protected
- Mark as masked
- Limit scope to specific environments
- Rotate regularly
```bash
# Add protected variable
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/variables" \
--data "key=SECRET_KEY" \
--data "value=secret_value" \
--data "protected=true" \
--data "masked=true" \
--data "environment_scope=production"
```
### 5. Two-Factor Authentication
Enforce 2FA for all users:
- Group settings > General > Permissions
- Require 2FA for all group members
- Set grace period for enablement
### 6. IP Allowlisting
Restrict access by IP (Premium/Ultimate):
```bash
curl --request PUT --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/groups/:id" \
--data "ip_restriction_ranges[]=192.168.1.0/24" \
--data "ip_restriction_ranges[]=10.0.0.0/8"
```
### 7. Security Training
GitLab provides security training:
- Secure coding practices
- OWASP Top 10
- Security testing
- Vulnerability remediation
## Security Integrations
### SIEM Integration
Export audit logs to SIEM:
**Splunk**:
```yaml
# .gitlab-ci.yml
export_to_splunk:
script:
- curl -k https://splunk.example.com:8088/services/collector \
-H "Authorization: Splunk $SPLUNK_TOKEN" \
-d '{"event": $AUDIT_DATA}'
```
**ELK Stack**:
```yaml
export_to_elk:
script:
- |
curl -X POST "https://elasticsearch.example.com:9200/gitlab-audit/_doc" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d "$AUDIT_DATA"
```
### Vulnerability Management Tools
Integrate with external tools:
- Jira for vulnerability tracking
- ServiceNow for incident management
- PagerDuty for security alerts
## Security API
### List Vulnerabilities
```bash
curl --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/vulnerabilities?project_id=:id&severity=critical"
```
### Dismiss Vulnerability
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/vulnerabilities/:id/dismiss" \
--data "dismissal_reason=acceptable_risk" \
--data "comment=Risk accepted by security team"
```
### Resolve Vulnerability
```bash
curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>" \
"https://gitlab.com/api/v4/vulnerabilities/:id/resolve"
```
## Security Hardening
### Runner Security
```toml
[[runners]]
[runners.docker]
privileged = false
disable_cache = false
volumes = ["/cache"]
# Security settings
security_opt = ["no-new-privileges"]
cap_drop = ["ALL"]
cap_add = ["NET_BIND_SERVICE"]
```
### Registry Security
```yaml
registry:
storage_delete:
enabled: true
validation:
manifests:
urls:
allow:
- ^https://registry\.gitlab\.com/
```
### Git Security
```ruby
# /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
gitlab_rails['allowed_hosts'] = ['gitlab.example.com']
gitlab_rails['gitlab_shell_ssh_port'] = 2222
gitlab_rails['gitlab_shell_git_timeout'] = 800
```

# GitLab Webhooks Reference
## Overview
GitLab webhooks allow external services to be notified when certain events happen in GitLab. When triggered, GitLab sends an HTTP POST request with event data to the configured URL.
## Webhook Configuration
### Creating a Webhook
**Via UI**: Project Settings > Webhooks
**Via API**:
```
POST /projects/:id/hooks
```
Parameters:
- `url` (required): The webhook URL
- `token`: Secret token for request verification
- `push_events`: Trigger on push events (default: true)
- `tag_push_events`: Trigger on tag push events
- `issues_events`: Trigger on issue events
- `confidential_issues_events`: Trigger on confidential issue events
- `merge_requests_events`: Trigger on merge request events
- `wiki_page_events`: Trigger on wiki page events
- `deployment_events`: Trigger on deployment events
- `job_events`: Trigger on job events
- `pipeline_events`: Trigger on pipeline events
- `releases_events`: Trigger on release events
- `enable_ssl_verification`: Verify SSL certificates (default: true)
### Webhook Security
**Secret Token**: Include a secret token to verify requests:
```python
import hmac
import hashlib
def verify_webhook(payload, signature, secret):
expected = hmac.new(
secret.encode(),
payload.encode(),
hashlib.sha256
).hexdigest()
return hmac.compare_digest(expected, signature)
```
**Request Headers**:
- `X-Gitlab-Token`: Contains the secret token (if configured)
- `X-Gitlab-Event`: Event type name
- `User-Agent`: GitLab/{version}
## Event Types

## Testing Webhooks
### Via GitLab UI
1. Navigate to Project Settings > Webhooks
2. Find your webhook
3. Click "Test" dropdown
4. Select event type to test
5. View response in UI
### Via API
```bash
curl -X POST "https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/:id/hooks/:hook_id/test/push_events" \
--header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <token>"
```
### Local Testing
Use tools like:
- **ngrok**: Create public URL for local development
- **webhook.site**: Test webhook delivery
- **requestbin.com**: Inspect webhook payloads
```bash
# Using ngrok
ngrok http 3000
# Update webhook URL to ngrok URL
# Trigger event in GitLab
# View webhook payload in ngrok dashboard
```
## Webhook Best Practices
### 1. Security
- **Use HTTPS**: Always use HTTPS URLs for webhooks
- **Verify SSL**: Enable SSL verification in production
- **Secret Tokens**: Use secret tokens to verify webhook authenticity
- **Validate Payloads**: Verify request signatures
- **IP Allowlisting**: Restrict webhook sources to GitLab IPs
### 2. Reliability
- **Return Quickly**: Respond with 2xx status code quickly (< 10 seconds)
- **Async Processing**: Queue webhook payloads for async processing
- **Idempotency**: Handle duplicate webhook deliveries
- **Error Handling**: Handle errors gracefully
- **Retry Logic**: Implement retry logic for failed processing
### 3. Monitoring
- **Log Webhooks**: Log all webhook deliveries
- **Track Failures**: Monitor webhook failure rates
- **Alert on Issues**: Set up alerts for webhook failures
- **Recent Deliveries**: Check recent deliveries in GitLab UI
### 4. Performance
- **Rate Limiting**: Handle rate limits on external APIs
- **Batch Processing**: Batch similar webhook events
- **Caching**: Cache frequently accessed data
- **Timeouts**: Set appropriate timeouts
## Example Webhook Handler
### Python Flask Example
```python
from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import hmac
import hashlib
app = Flask(__name__)
WEBHOOK_SECRET = "your-secret-token"
def verify_signature(payload, signature):
"""Verify webhook signature"""
if not signature:
return False
expected = hmac.new(
WEBHOOK_SECRET.encode(),
payload,
hashlib.sha256
).hexdigest()
return hmac.compare_digest(expected, signature)
@app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
def handle_webhook():
# Get signature from header
signature = request.headers.get('X-Gitlab-Token')
# Verify signature
if not verify_signature(request.data, signature):
return jsonify({'error': 'Invalid signature'}), 401
# Get event type

### Node.js Express Example
```javascript
const express = require('express');
const crypto = require('crypto');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const app = express();
const WEBHOOK_SECRET = 'your-secret-token';
// Verify webhook signature
function verifySignature(payload, signature) {
if (!signature) return false;
const expected = crypto
.createHmac('sha256', WEBHOOK_SECRET)
.update(payload)
.digest('hex');
return crypto.timingSafeEqual(
Buffer.from(expected),
Buffer.from(signature)
);
}
app.post('/webhook', bodyParser.raw({type: 'application/json'}), (req, res) => {
const signature = req.headers['x-gitlab-token'];
const eventType = req.headers['x-gitlab-event'];
// Verify signature
if (!verifySignature(req.body, signature)) {
return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Invalid signature' });
}
const payload = JSON.parse(req.body.toString());
// Handle different event types
switch (eventType) {
case 'Push Hook':
handlePushEvent(payload);
break;
case 'Merge Request Hook':
handleMergeRequestEvent(payload);
break;
case 'Pipeline Hook':
handlePipelineEvent(payload);
break;
}
res.json({ status: 'received' });
});
function handlePushEvent(payload) {
console.log(`Push to ${payload.ref} with ${payload.commits.length} commits`);
}
function handleMergeRequestEvent(payload) {
const { action, iid } = payload.object_attributes;
console.log(`Merge request ${iid} was ${action}`);
}
function handlePipelineEvent(payload) {
const { status, ref } = payload.object_attributes;
console.log(`Pipeline on ${ref} status: ${status}`);
}
app.listen(5000, () => {
console.log('Webhook server listening on port 5000');
});
```
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
1. **Webhook Not Triggering**
- Verify event is enabled in webhook configuration
- Check webhook URL is accessible from internet
- Review Recent Deliveries in GitLab UI
- Check firewall rules
2. **SSL Verification Failures**
- Ensure SSL certificate is valid
- Check certificate chain is complete
- Temporarily disable SSL verification for testing (not recommended for production)
3. **Timeouts**
- Reduce processing time in webhook handler
- Return 2xx response quickly, process async
- Check network connectivity
4. **Authentication Errors**
- Verify secret token matches
- Check signature verification logic
- Ensure token is transmitted correctly
### Debugging Tips
1. Use webhook testing services (webhook.site, requestbin.com)
2. Check "Recent Deliveries" in GitLab webhook settings
3. Enable detailed logging in webhook handler
4. Test with curl/Postman using sample payloads
5. Verify IP addresses if using allowlisting
6. Check response status codes and headers
