You can make changes to a fork without affecting the original. In GitHub, a fork is your own copy of a repository. Be sure to verify your email so you can create new repositories.
Note: If you don’t already have a GitHub account, create one for free at. You will learn how to:įor this tutorial, you’ll be working with Fruits, a very simple SwiftUI app listing fruits because the world clearly needs more fruit-listing apps :] That way, you will instantly know when something is broken and be able to fix it straight away.Ĭontinuous Integration comes in many flavors (just like those delicious cakes mentioned above), and in this tutorial you’re going to explore Apple’s cloud-based Xcode Server. The CI server will build your app and run tests each time you commit code. Usually you run the builds on a dedicated CI server, which might be a physical machine or could be a shared machine in the cloud. It’s a way to automate running builds of your iOS apps over and over as you’re developing your code.
If you’re producing a batch of cakes, for example, and you want to maintain the same consistent taste and texture, it’s likely there will be some kind of automation involved to make sure that the same recipe and the same cooking techniques are used every time to produce the same consistent and delicious cake.Ĭontinuous Integration ( CI for short) is the name given to this approach in software development.
In the real world, if you need to maintain a consistent approach to building something, you almost always rely on some form of automation.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn all about how to do this with Xcode Server. In case you see an error message like error during connect: Post dial tcp: lookup docker on matter if you’re part of a large team of iOS engineers or a solo indie developer, Continuous Integration (CI) can make your development workflow rapid and consistent, allowing you to spend more time on the thing you really love - writing beautiful code. To view the logs (run this from the directory where docker-compose.yml) is located. Note that you can also use docker-compose logs -f View logs in less: sudo journalctl -xu gitlab-runnerĪlso see How to register gitlab runner for multiple GitLab instances. View & follow logs: sudo journalctl -xfu gitlab-runner View status: sudo systemctl status gitlab-runner Stop by sudo systemctl stop gitlab-runner Restart by sudo systemctl restart gitlab-runner Start by sudo systemctl start gitlab-runner Note that the script that creates the systemd service will automatically start the runner, so you don’t need to start it manually. If your directory is named gitlab-runner, the service file will be stored in /etc/systemd/systemd/rvice, hence these are commands you can use to control the service: For more details, see the corresponding blogpost. This will automatically generate a systemd service and start the runner (also on boot).
with no gitlab instance being attached): docker-compose downĪfter that’s finished, you can run the script from our previous post Create a systemd service for your docker-compose project in 10 seconds in the directory where docker-compose.yml is located. Now, restart the runner that is running with the old config (i.e. Feel free to start it, but if it's running already the config should be automatically reloaded! succeeded runner=oc-oKWMHĮnter an executor: custom, docker-ssh, shell, virtualbox, docker-ssh+machine, docker, parallels, ssh, docker+machine, kubernetes: You will find this information at This example is for my GitLab instance: Runtime platform arch=amd64 os=linux pid=38 revision=943fc252 version=13.7.0Įnter the GitLab instance URL (for example, ):Įnter tags for the runner (comma-separated): It will ask you for details about the GitLab instance you want to attach to.
