Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery: Glossary

Key Points

Introduction	CI/CD automates as much as possible outside of core development tasks. CI/CD allows for a more iterative way of testing, using and working on your application.
Setup Git repository	When creating a GitHub repository keep permissions in mind. Templates are a quick way to scaffold your application. Don’t create your own license.
Run application locally	Write an appropriate amount of tests for your purpose. Make sure to update your readme.md intermittently during development.
Create a container image with Docker	Docker solves ‘it only runs on my laptop’ issues. Docker images can be reused to share container blueprints. Sharing Docker images saves time recreating work and environments
Automate tests using GitHub Actions	GitHub provides a lot of relevant templates for common workflows. Make sure to install the tests requirements in the GitHub job before running the tests. Generate a status badge with GitHub to show if the tests passed directly in your README.
Automate Docker build with GitHub Actions	Use the official GitHub Action from Docker. Set sensible informations, such as passwords, in GitHub Secrets.
Automate the publication of your package using GitHub Actions	Use template provided by GitHub. Set PyPI credentials in GitHub Secrets. Add a version badge to display the latest version available on PyPI in your README.
Add a new feature and create new release	Just do not mess up the version number change.
Complete and publish the documentation	No one wants to read your dirty code to understand how to run your application, not even yourself in 2 months. So please publish a short, but exhaustive documentation about how to deploy and use your application.
Create a GitHub Action for your package	When creating a GitHub repository keep permissions in mind. Templates are a quick way to scaffold your application.
Continous Deployment (CD) using GitHub Actions	GitHub Pages is the best solution for static website (and its free). Be careful to not reach limitations set by the cloud provider you use.
