Creating a Task

Creating a Task to Check Code from CodeArts Repo

If you select Automatically create Check task when creating a code repository in CodeArts Repo, a code check task will be created synchronously. You can view the task in the task list of CodeArts Check.

If you do not select Automatically create Check task when creating a code repository, perform these steps to create a task:

1. Access CodeArts Check through a project.
2. Click Create Task, configure parameters by referring to Table 1, and click Create Task.

   Table 1 Task parameters

   Parameter	Description	Mandatory
   Project	Project that the task belongs to. This parameter is set by default when you access CodeArts Check from the project entry. During access through the service entry, select the project created in Creating a Project based on the site requirements.	Yes
   Code Source	Select Repo.	Yes
   Name	Customize your task name. Enter 1 to 128 characters: letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).	Yes
   Repository	Select the code repository to be checked.	Yes
   Branch	Select the code branch to be checked.	Yes
   Language	Select the code language to be checked.	No

   

   • To modify the task name and default branch, go to the task details page, choose Settings > Basic Info, and then modify the target task.
   • To delete a task, go to the task details page, choose Settings > Basic Info, and then delete the target task. Alternatively, click in the row where the target task is located, and choose Delete from the drop-down list.

     When the task to be deleted has a code repository with multiple branches, the deletion will be successful if there are fewer than 200 branches. Otherwise, the deletion will fail.

Creating a Service Endpoint

When you select any third-party repository, the Endpoint is a mandatory setting.

A service endpoint is an extension to CodeArts and supports connection to third-party services.

By default, CodeArts Check pulls code from CodeArts Repo for your build. CodeArts Build also uses service endpoints to connect to third-party repositories to obtain project source code.

• The network may be unstable or other problems may occur when a third-party repository is used.
• Use the code import function of CodeArts Repo for secure, stable, and efficient download and build.

Creating a Git service endpoint

1. Click and click Create Endpoint in the drop-down list.
2. On the displayed page, click Create Endpoint and select Git repository.
3. In the displayed dialog box, set parameters by referring to Table 3.

   Table 3 Git service endpoint parameters

   Parameter	Description	Mandatory
