Provide CI values to speficy a manifest project to update
Release notes
Problem to solve
As a Developer, I want to have a simple way to update my manifest projects, so that I can deploy easily.
Intended users
User experience goal
This would be similar to how pages operates.
Example:
manifest_update:
project:
-
project: my-group/manifest-project
path: dev
artifacts:
- <path spec>Proposal
The manifest project can be configured to either commit directly to master or open an MR automatically as the result of the CI run.
The manifest project should be able to update itself in a similar manner, so a different trigger might start creating a pipeline run that creates the manifests as an artifact, and would save them to the manifest project.
Further details
Permissions and Security
- The user running the CI job should have write access to the manifest project's master branch.
