Using GitHub for Build

  • By default, CodeArts Build pulls code from CodeArts Repo. For code hosted on GitHub, you can use a GitHub connection to pull the code.
  • You can use OAuth or access token authentication for the GitHub connection to restrict CodeArts Build from accessing the GitHub repository as long as code can be pulled to complete the build.

    You can also delete connections or withdraw authorization at any time to prevent password leakage.

Procedure

  1. Create a build task and select GitHub for Code Source. If you use the GitHub connection for the first time, create an endpoint instance first.
  2. Click Create next to Endpoint.
  3. In the Create Service Endpoint dialog box, select an authentication mode and set other parameters.

    • OAuth authentication
