SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the process of integrating a new project area into your Continuous Integration (CI) pipeline, ensuring that changes in specific directories are automatically tested.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • CI Configuration Update: Modifies GitHub Actions workflows (ci.yml and docker.yml) to include new jobs for specific project directories.
  • Path Filtering: Implements path filters to trigger jobs only when relevant files change.
  • Job Orchestration: Adds new jobs to the CI gate, ensuring comprehensive testing.
  • Use Case: When you add a new microservice or a distinct frontend module to your monorepo, you can use this Skill to automatically set up its CI checks without manually editing workflow files.

Quick Start

Use the add-ci-area skill to add a new project area named 'mobile' to the CI configuration.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add a new project directory to existing GitHub Actions CI workflows?▼

To add a new project directory to GitHub Actions CI, you modify workflow files like ci.yml and docker.yml to include path filters and new jobs. This ensures changes in specific directories trigger automated tests.

How do path filters work for triggering jobs in a monorepo CI pipeline?▼

Path filters in a monorepo CI pipeline trigger specific jobs only when relevant files in designated directories change. This mechanism updates your workflow configuration to isolate testing to modified project areas.

What is the best way to automate CI configuration updates for new microservices?▼

Automating CI configuration updates for new microservices involves modifying GitHub Actions workflows to inject path filters and orchestrate new jobs. This automatically integrates new directories into the CI gate.

Can I use this approach to extend CI to new frontend modules in a multi-project repository?▼

Yes, you can extend CI to new frontend modules in a multi-project repository by updating workflow files. This process adds directory-specific path filters and jobs to ensure comprehensive testing.

Do I need to manually edit docker.yml to include path filters for new project areas?▼

No, you do not need to manually edit docker.yml. The automation modifies both ci.yml and docker.yml to automatically include path filters and new jobs for specific project directories.
