- **Unit tests**: With 82% coverage requirement
- **Integration tests**: With PostgreSQL service
- **End-to-end tests**: Complete workflow validation
- **Docker builds**: REST API and UI images
- **Automated publishing**: PyPI and Docker Hub on release
#### Security Audit (`.github/workflows/security.yml`)
- **Daily scheduled scans**: Runs at 2 AM UTC
- **Vulnerability detection**: Using pip-audit
- **Automated issue creation**: On security findings
- **Manual trigger**: Via workflow_dispatch
#### Code Quality (`.github/workflows/code-quality.yml`)
- **PR-specific checks**: Runs on pull requests
- **Detailed reporting**: With diff output
- **Coverage comments**: Automatic PR comments
- **HTML reports**: Uploaded as artifacts
### 2. Dependency Management
#### Dependabot Configuration (`.github/dependabot.yml`)
- **Python dependencies**: Weekly updates
- **GitHub Actions**: Weekly updates
- **Docker images**: Weekly updates
- **UI dependencies**: Weekly updates (npm)
- **Grouped updates**: Dev and production dependencies
- **Smart ignoring**: Major version updates excluded
### 3. Templates and Documentation
#### Issue Templates
- **Bug reports**: Structured bug reporting
- **Feature requests**: Comprehensive feature proposals
#### Pull Request Template
- **Standardized format**: Consistent PR descriptions
- **Checklists**: Ensure completeness
- **Review guidelines**: For reviewers
#### Documentation
- **Workflow README**: Detailed workflow documentation
- **CI/CD guide**: Comprehensive CI/CD documentation
- **Contributing guide**: Developer contribution guidelines
### 4. Validation and Tooling
#### Validation Script (`scripts/validate_ci_setup.py`)
- **Automated checks**: Verify CI/CD setup
- **YAML validation**: Ensure workflow syntax
- **File existence**: Check required files
- **Structure validation**: Verify workflow jobs
#### Makefile Integration
- **New target**: `make validate-ci`
- **Easy access**: Quick validation command

## Configuration Required
### GitHub Repository Settings
1. **Enable GitHub Actions**
- Go to Settings → Actions → General
- Allow all actions and reusable workflows
2. **Configure Secrets**
- Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions
- Add required secrets:
- `PYPI_API_TOKEN`: For PyPI publishing
- `DOCKER_USERNAME`: For Docker Hub
- `DOCKER_PASSWORD`: For Docker Hub
3. **Branch Protection Rules** (Recommended)
- Settings → Branches → Add rule
- Branch name pattern: `main`
- Enable:
- Require pull request reviews (1 approval)
- Require status checks to pass
- Require branches to be up to date
- Required status checks:
- `build-and-test (3.10)`
- `integration-tests`
- `e2e-tests`
- `docker-build`
4. **Enable Dependabot**
- Settings → Security → Dependabot
- Enable Dependabot alerts
- Enable Dependabot security updates
- Enable Dependabot version updates
### Local Setup
1. **Validate CI/CD setup**
```bash
make validate-ci
```
2. **Install pre-commit hooks** (optional)
```bash
pip install pre-commit
pre-commit install
```
3. **Test workflows locally** (optional)
```bash
# Install act (GitHub Actions local runner)
brew install act # macOS
# Run workflow locally
act push
```
## Verification Steps
### 1. Validate Setup
```bash
make validate-ci
```
Expected output: All checks pass ✓
### 2. Test Workflows Locally
```bash
# Run all quality checks
make format
make lint
make typecheck
make audit
make test
make test-integration
```
Expected output: All checks pass
### 3. Trigger First CI Run
```bash
git add .
git commit -m "ci: add CI/CD configuration"
git push origin main
```
Expected result: GitHub Actions runs successfully
### 4. Monitor Build
- Go to GitHub repository
- Click "Actions" tab
- Watch workflow execution
- Verify all jobs complete successfully
## Success Criteria
All requirements from task 16.4 have been met:
✅ **Set up GitHub Actions**: Complete with 3 workflows
✅ **Automated builds**: Runs on every commit
✅ **Build process**: Full quality gates implemented
✅ **Integration tests**: With PostgreSQL service
✅ **Publish packages**: On release to PyPI and Docker Hub
✅ **Requirements 1.1**: Build system fully automated
## Next Steps
### Immediate Actions

2. Enable branch protection rules
3. Push to trigger first CI/CD run
4. Verify all workflows execute successfully
### Future Enhancements

- [ ] Add deployment to staging
- [ ] Add smoke tests
- [ ] Add notification integrations (Slack/Discord)
- [ ] Add code coverage trends
- [ ] Add build time optimization
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
**Workflow doesn't trigger:**
- Check GitHub Actions are enabled
- Verify workflow file syntax (use `make validate-ci`)
- Check branch name matches trigger conditions
**Build fails on format check:**
```bash
make format
git add .
git commit --amend --no-edit
git push --force-with-lease
```
**Integration tests fail:**
- Verify PostgreSQL service configuration
- Check environment variables
- Review service health checks
**Publishing fails:**
- Verify secrets are configured
- Check PyPI token permissions
- Verify Docker Hub credentials
### Getting Help
1. Check workflow logs in GitHub Actions
2. Review documentation in `docs/CI_CD.md`
3. Run validation script: `make validate-ci`
4. Check existing issues
5. Create new issue with workflow run link
