使用 Docker Image 用于 MAVEN 项目的 Gitlab CI

Question

I have project on java, where i have my tests. Now i have .gitlab-ci.yml :

image: maven:latest

stages:
  - build

build:
  stage: build
  script:
    - mvn test-compile compile
  tags:
    - mytag
  only:
    refs:
      - dev

Each time, when i am making commit in my repo, i am waiting a lot of time, when it will download all depencies. In docker we can use volume option. The question: Can i download and compile locally this project for creating of .m2 directory, and can i use this directory in my .gitlab-ci.yml . If yes, can you help me how, because i have not found in internet examples according to it.

I made changes in my /etc/gitlab-runner/config.toml :

  [runners.docker]
    tls_verify = false
    image = "maven:latest"
    privileged = true
    disable_entrypoint_overwrite = false
    oom_kill_disable = false
    disable_cache = false
    volumes = ["/cache","/M2/.m2:/root/.m2"]
    shm_size = 0

/M2/ is a dir, with gitlab-runner owner. But it does not help, how we can see:

Answer 1

steps to take: (host machine - the machine gitlab - runner installd on and the runner signed)

1. clone your repository on the host machine
2. compile it with maven
3. check that there is cached data folder under /root/.m2 on the host machine
4. fix your config.toml add this line

volumes = ["/cache","~/.m2:/root/.m2"]

5. then add to .gitlab-ci.yml

 cache: paths: - /root/.m2/

variables: MAVEN_OPTS: "-Dmaven.repo.local=.m2"

the .gilatb.yml should look like this

• I build a "base docker image". Copy pom.xml to docker image and then run maven verify that image. This is dockerFile:

 FROM maven:3.6.1-jdk-8-alpine COPY pom.xml . RUN mvn verify clean --fail-never

• Open Terminal, then go to the project directory and run docker build:

docker build -t xxx/projectName:base .

• Now "base docker image" has cached data.

• And then You can use "base docker image" in gitlab-ci.yml:

 image: xxx/projectName:base stages: - build build: stage: build script: - mvn test-compile compile tags: - mytag only: refs: - dev
