## CI/CD Pipeline Setup with GitHub Actions
This repository uses GitHub Actions to automate the Continuous Integration (CI) process. Below are the steps to set up the CI workflow.
### Steps to Set Up CI with GitHub Actions
1. **Create the GitHub Actions Workflow Directory**
In your repository, create a directory structure for GitHub Actions workflows:
```bash
mkdir -p .github/workflows
```
2. **Create the CI Workflow File**
Inside the `.github/workflows` directory, create a YAML file named `ci.yml`.
```bash
touch .github/workflows/ci.yml
```
3. **Define the Workflow**
Add the following content to the `ci.yml` file:
```yaml
name: CI for Security Tracker
on:
push:
branches: [ main ]
pull_request:
branches: [ main ]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout code
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Set up Node.js
uses: actions/setup-node@v2
with:
node-version: 'lts/*'
- name: Install dependencies
run: npm install
- name: Run app.js
run: node app.js
```
4. **Stage, Commit, and Push Changes**
Stage, commit, and push your changes to the `main` branch:
```bash
git add .github/workflows/ci.yml
git commit -m "Add CI workflow with latest Node.js LTS"
git push origin main
```
5. **Verify the Workflow**
- Go to your repository on GitHub.
- Click on the `Actions` tab to see the workflow running.
### Workflow Explanation
- **name**: The name of the workflow.
- **on**: Specifies the events that trigger the workflow. It runs on pushes and pull requests to the `main` branch.
- **jobs**: Defines the jobs to be run.
- **runs-on**: Specifies the type of machine to run the job on (e.g., `ubuntu-latest`).
- **steps**: The series of steps to be executed in the job:
- **Checkout code**: Uses `actions/checkout@v2` to check out your repository's code.
- **Set up Node.js**: Uses `actions/setup-node@v2` to set up a Node.js environment with the latest LTS version.
- **Install dependencies**: Runs `npm install` to install npm dependencies.
- **Run app.js**: Runs your `app.js` file with the `node app.js` command.
### Additional Information
- For more details on GitHub Actions, refer to the [GitHub Actions Documentation](https://docs.github.com/en/actions).
- If you encounter any issues, ensure your YAML syntax is correct and check the GitHub Actions tab for detailed logs and errors.
By following these steps, you will set up a GitHub Actions workflow that uses the latest LTS version of Node.js, installs necessary npm modules, and runs your `app.js` file on each push or pull request to the `main` branch.
