16. CI pipelines in dev
Date: 2022-05-23
Status
Accepted
Context
Taskfile.dev offers an alternative to a Makefile, focusing on readability by using YAML. This is a good candidate for the GitLab Operator project given the extensive use of YAML in Kubernetes projects.
Our Makefile has become a bit difficult to parse as it has gotten more complex, which makes debugging and contributing more difficult.
Decision
Makefile will be replaced with a Taskfile, and calls to make will be replaced with calls to task.
Consequences
- Updates and additions to scripting will be easier to complete, test, and review.
- Available tasks can be easily viewed using
task --list.
