GitLab Cloud¶

Follow the instructions below to set up the Codacy integration with GitLab Cloud.

Create a GitLab application¶

To integrate Codacy with GitLab Cloud, you must create a GitLab application:

Open https://gitlab.com/profile/applications.
Fill in the fields to register your Codacy instance on GitLab:
- Name: Name of the application. For example, Codacy.
- Redirect URI: Copy the URLs below, replacing the HTTP protocol and hostname with the correct values for your Codacy instance. This field is case sensitive.
```
https://codacy.example.com/login/GitLab
https://codacy.example.com/add/addProvider/GitLab
https://codacy.example.com/add/addService/GitLab
https://codacy.example.com/add/addPermissions/GitLab
```
- Scopes: Enable the scopes:
  - api
  - read_user
  - read_repository
  - openid
Click Save application and take note of the generated Application Id and Secret.

Configure GitLab Cloud on Codacy¶

After creating the GitLab application, you must configure it on Codacy:

Edit the file values-production.yaml that you used to install Codacy.

Set global.gitlab.enabled: "true" and define the remaining values as described below using the information obtained when you created the GitLab application:

gitlab:
  enabled: "true"
  login: "true" # Show login button for GitLab Cloud
  clientId: "" # Application ID
  clientSecret: "" # Secret

Apply the new configuration by performing a Helm upgrade. To do so execute the command used to install Codacy:

Important

If you are using MicroK8s you must use the file values-microk8s.yaml together with the file values-production.yaml.

To do this, uncomment the last line before running the helm upgrade command below.
```
helm upgrade (...options used to install Codacy...) \
             --version 3.5.1 \
             --values values-production.yaml \
             # --values values-microk8s.yaml
```

After this is done you will be able to use GitLab Cloud to authenticate to Codacy.
