Goal

Integrate codee format with GitLab CI/CD to automatically check if Fortran code is properly formatted and fail the pipeline if any formatting issues are found.

Prerequisites​

Ensure you have:

  • codee installed and accessible in your GitLab runners.

GitLab CI/CD pipelines​

1. Generate format status report​

GitLab CI/CD can be used to run codee format automatically on merge requests and ensure that all contributions follow a consistent formatting style.

Add the following content to your .gitlab-ci.yml file:

stages:
  - format-check

format:
  stage: format-check
  image: ubuntu:latest
  before_script:
    - apt update && apt install -y git
    - git fetch origin $CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME --depth=1
  script:
    - MODIFIED_FILES=$(git diff --name-only --diff-filter=d origin/$CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME...HEAD -- '*.f90' '*.F90' '*.f' '*.F')
    - if [ -n "$MODIFIED_FILES" ]; then codee format --verbose $MODIFIED_FILES | tee codee_output.log; fi
    - SUMMARY=$(tail -n 1 codee_output.log)
    - echo ""
    - echo "============ Codee Format Summary ============"
    - echo "$SUMMARY"
    - echo "=============================================="
  rules:
    - if: $CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "merge_request_event"
  allow_failure: false

How it works​

  • The job runs whenever a merge request is created or updated.
  • It runs codee format on all modified Fortran source files.
  • It shows all the changes that could be made by codee format generating a report. Note that the pipeline is never blocked.

2. Verify format​

GitLab CI/CD can be used to run codee format automatically on merge requests and generate a report with the potential fixes that can be applied to the modified Fortran files.

Add the following content to your .gitlab-ci.yml file:

stages:
  - codee-status

codee_format_status:
  stage: codee-status
  tags:
    - self-hosted
  only:
    - merge_requests
  before_script:
    - apt update && apt install -y git cmake ninja-build gfortran
    - git fetch origin $CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME --depth=1
    - git fetch origin
    - git checkout "$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME"
  script:
    - |
      echo "Detecting modified Fortran files..."
      MODIFIED_FILES=$(git diff --name-only --diff-filter=d origin/${CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME}...HEAD -- '*.f90' '*.F90' '*.f' '*.F')
      echo "Modified files: $MODIFIED_FILES"
      if [ -n "$MODIFIED_FILES" ]; then
        echo "Running Codee format in verbose mode for status report..."
        for f in $MODIFIED_FILES; do
          echo "Formatting $f..."
          codee format --verbose "$f"
        done
        echo "Summary of formatting status:"
        for f in $MODIFIED_FILES; do
          codee format --verbose "$f" 2>&1 | grep -E "diagnostics|Formatted"
        done
      else
        echo "No modified Fortran files. Skipping Codee format status."
      fi
  allow_failure: false

How it works​

  • The job runs whenever a merge request is created or updated.
  • It runs codee format on all modified Fortran source files.
  • It shows all the changes that could be made by codee format generating a report. Note that the pipeline is never blocked.

3. Apply format​

Warning

Be cautious when following this guide as there can always be issues in formatting that could cause problems in your code. Always review before merging

GitLab CI/CD can also be used to automatically apply codee format to format Fortran code from the contributors. To follow this approach it is necessary to create a personal token on your GitLab instance.

Add the following content to your .gitlab-ci.yml file:

stages:
  - format

format:
  stage: format
  tags:
    - self-hosted
  before_script:
    - apt update && apt install -y git
    - git fetch origin $CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME --depth=1
  script:
    - git fetch origin
    - git checkout "$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME"
    - |
      MODIFIED_FILES=$(git diff --name-only --diff-filter=d origin/${CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME}...HEAD -- '*.f90' '*.F90' '*.f' '*.F')
      echo "Modified files: $MODIFIED_FILES"
      if [ -n "$MODIFIED_FILES" ]; then
        git codee-format --diff origin/${CI_MERGE_REQUEST_TARGET_BRANCH_NAME} HEAD
        if ! git diff --quiet; then
          git commit -c user.name="gitlab-ci" -c user.email="ci@example.com" -am "Apply codee format formatting fixes"
          git push https://gitlab-ci-token:${GITLAB_TOKEN}@gitlab.com/${CI_PROJECT_PATH}.git $CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME;
        else
          echo "No changes detected."
        fi
      else
        echo "No Fortran files modified."
      fi
  only:
    - merge_requests

How it works​

  • The job runs whenever a push is made.
  • It runs codee format on all modified Fortran source files.
  • If codee format makes any changes, the changes are commited and pushed to the current branch.

Troubleshooting​

  • If the job does not trigger, verify the rules: section.
  • If formatting does not apply, check if your files match the specified glob patterns (*.f90, *.F90, etc.).
