# CI/CD Pipeline Integration - Progress Report
|
||||
|
||||
**Date**: 2025-08-17
|
||||
**Status**: ✅ Completed
|
||||
**Version**: 0.4.0
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Objective
|
||||
|
||||
Integrate testing and deployment workflows into a single unified CI/CD pipeline that automatically runs tests and deploys based on branch triggers.
|
||||
|
||||
## 🚀 What Was Accomplished
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. **Unified CI/CD Workflow**
|
||||
- **Merged `test.yml` and `deploy.yml`** into single `.github/workflows/deploy.yml`
|
||||
- **Eliminated duplicate workflows** for better maintainability
|
||||
- **Added comprehensive pipeline phases** with clear dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. **Enhanced Testing Phase**
|
||||
- **Matrix testing** across Python 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13
|
||||
- **Automated server management** for E2E tests in CI
|
||||
- **Comprehensive test coverage** with unit, integration, and E2E tests
|
||||
- **Codecov integration** for coverage reporting
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. **Deployment Automation**
|
||||
- **Staging deployment** on `dev` branch push
|
||||
- **Production deployment** on `main` branch push
|
||||
- **Dokku integration** for seamless deployments
|
||||
- **Environment-specific targets** (staging vs production)
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. **Pipeline Monitoring**
|
||||
- **GitHub Step Summaries** for each job
|
||||
- **Comprehensive logging** without duplication
|
||||
- **Status tracking** across all pipeline phases
|
||||
- **Final summary job** with complete pipeline overview
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔧 Technical Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow Structure
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
jobs:
|
||||
test: # Testing phase (matrix across Python versions)
|
||||
lint: # Code quality checks
|
||||
type-check: # Static type analysis
|
||||
deploy: # Deployment (conditional on branch)
|
||||
summary: # Final pipeline summary
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Features
|
||||
- **`needs` dependencies** ensure proper execution order
|
||||
- **Conditional deployment** based on branch triggers
|
||||
- **Environment protection** for production deployments
|
||||
- **Comprehensive cleanup** and resource management
|
||||
|
||||
### Server Management
|
||||
- **`scripts/ci-server.py`** handles server startup in CI
|
||||
- **Health monitoring** with automatic readiness detection
|
||||
- **Non-blocking execution** for parallel job execution
|
||||
- **Resource cleanup** to prevent resource leaks
|
||||
|
||||
