Configuring the CI/CD manifest

Your project has been migrated to a compatible version, you can now configure your manifest to publish artifacts to Talend Cloud. The manifest allows you to create a CVE report, to build, to generate, to publish project artifacts like Jobs and Routes, and to create the associated Talend Management Console tasks.

About this task

In this section, you configure a CI/CD manifest for upgrading a project.

After loading the selected project, the Talend Studio Web version displays a user interface similar to the Talend Project Analysis.

A new CI/CD tab is created.

In the Configuration tab, the different elements of the manifest are summarized as:
  • Environment: Selected sandbox version
  • Source: Talend project location
  • Target: Types of manifest

Procedure

  1. Select the manifest target. Multiple targets can be selected for a manifest. Depending on the manifest target selected, follow the different steps required for the configuration:
    • Talend Cloud: Publishes a project artifact to Talend Cloud and creates and configures the associated execution task. Check Talend Cloud manifest target for more information about the required steps.
    • Artifact repository: Publishes a project artifact to an Artifact Repository (Nexus or Artifactory). Check Artifact Repository manifest target for more information about the required steps.
    • CVE Report: Generates a CVE report for the selected project. This target does not require any configuration.
    • Project Upgrade: Generates a project upgrade based on the selected sandbox version. This target does not require any configuration.
      Information noteWarning: This target cannot be combined with other targets.
  2. The last part of the manifest definition is the selection of the project assets (Jobs and Routes) for this CI/CD manifest. In the Talend Studio Web version tree, a selection of available assets for CI/CD are listed. Select an asset by clicking its corresponding checkbox in the project tree. The selection will be reflected in the manifest Assets section.
    CI/CD manifest page with the Assets section highlighted
  3. The manifest definition can be saved. Click Save and provide a name and a description if needed. If additional changes are made to the manifest (target configuration changes or assets list), the Update button must be used to persist the changes.

Results

You configured a CI/CD manifest for upgrading a project. You must save the manifest which allowed you to execute the generated CI/CD pipeline on your sandbox.
