GCIP2

GCIP2 is a Python DSL for building GitLab CI/CD pipelines using strongly typed Pydantic models and a fluent builder API.

Instead of writing large YAML files, pipelines are defined in Python, validated against the official GitLab CI schema, and rendered into GitLab-compatible YAML.

Features

  • Strongly typed GitLab CI models
  • Fluent builder API
  • Reusable job builders
  • Pipeline inheritance
  • JSON Schema validation
  • Automatic YAML generation
  • Dynamic pipeline discovery
  • GitLab-compatible output

Installation

Create pyproject.toml with pyproject configuration

[project]
name = "dev"
version = "0.0.0"
description = ""
requires-python = ">=3.11,<4.0"

uv add gcip2

Quick Start

Initialize a new project:

dothat run init

This generates a minimal project structure:

.
├── ci.py
├── pyproject.toml
├── environment.toml
└── .pre-commit-config.yaml

Generate a child pipeline:

dothat run build-pipeline

or explicitly:

dothat run build-pipeline \
    --ci-file ci.py \
    --out-pipeline out/pipeline.gitlab-ci.yml

Generate the root .gitlab-ci.yml:

dothat run build-gitlab-ci

or

dothat run build-gitlab-ci \
    --ci-file ci.py \
    --out-gitlab-ci .gitlab-ci.yml

Project Structure

A typical project consists of two builders:

ci.py
 ├── Pipeline(PipelineBuilderImpl)
 │      └── generates:
 │          out/pipeline.gitlab-ci.yml
 │
 └── GitlabCi(GitlabCiBuilderImpl)
        └── generates:
            .gitlab-ci.yml

Pipeline defines the reusable downstream pipeline, while GitlabCi defines the repository's root GitLab CI configuration.


Validation

Generated pipelines can be validated against the bundled GitLab JSON schema before rendering.
