Most Qlty users user Qlty Cloud, our fully automated Code Health Platform, to run static analysis in the cloud, making CI setup unnecessary. However, there are a few use cases where running Qlty CLI in your continuous integration (CI) pipeline is useful.

​
Auto-formatting your code nightly

Qlty Cloud does not currently support auto-formatting your code. However, you can run qlty fmt in your CI pipeline to automatically format your code nightly. Here is an example GitHub Actions workflow:
.github/workflows/fmt.yml
name: fmt

on:
    workflow_dispatch:
    schedule:
        - cron: "0 6 * * *"

permissions:
    contents: write

jobs:
    format:
        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
        steps:
            - uses: actions/checkout@v4
              with:
                  ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}

            - uses: qltysh/qlty-action/fmt@main

            - name: Commit changes
              uses: stefanzweifel/git-auto-commit-action@v5
              with:
                  commit_message: qlty fmt --all
                  branch: ${{ github.head_ref }}
                  commit_user_name: qltysh[bot]
                  commit_user_email: 168846912+qltysh[bot]@users.noreply.github.com
                  commit_author: qltysh[bot] <168846912+qltysh[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
