Question: web hooks (commits, merge requests) #5

Open mfkl opened 5 years ago

mfkl commented 5 years ago

Hi,

Can it build merge requests? Can it be configured to kick off builds for new commits?

Hello @mfkl - At this moment this is not possible. However, there are new changes to the extension SDK which should allow configuring webhooks to gitlab via the extension. I am investigating this at the moment.

I second this. We're in the process of merging two development teams and that includes moving our repos into Gitlab. However, we need to maintain the existing build/release pipeline (which deploys to Azure). Since Gitlab isn't "officially" supported, we're having instead use the generic pipeline capability around repo interaction. It's feels like having a foot chopped off compared to the tighter integration we get with a supported repo.

It would be nice to be able to configure the Gitlab repo in the build pipeline 'Get Sources' task and have it use webhooks as triggers for builds based upon commits.
