Introduction to pipelines and builds

Note: Introduced in GitSwarm 2016.2.

Pipelines

A pipeline is a group of builds that get executed in stages (batches). All of the builds in a stage are executed in parallel (if there are enough concurrent runners), and if they all succeed, the pipeline moves on to the next stage. If one of the builds fails, the next stage is not (usually) executed.

Builds

Builds are individual runs of jobs. Not to be confused with a build job or build stage.

Defining pipelines

Pipelines are defined in .gitlab-ci.yml by specifying jobs that run in stages.

See full documentation.

Seeing pipeline status

You can find the current and historical pipeline runs under Pipelines for your project.

Seeing build status

Clicking on a pipeline will show the builds that were run for that pipeline.
