Continuous Integration

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
1name: fmt
2
3on:
4    workflow_dispatch:
5    schedule:
6        - cron: "0 6 * * *"
7
8permissions:
9    contents: write
10
11jobs:
12    format:
13        runs-on: ubuntu-latest
14        steps:
15            - uses: actions/checkout@v4
16              with:
17                  ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}
18
19            - uses: qltysh/qlty-action/fmt@main

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