Gitlab Webhook Merge request events not triggering pipeline

[kama...@cloudkata.com]

Hi,

We are facing an issue that gitlab webhooks are not triggering the pipeline when sending only Merge Request Events.However Push Events are triggering the build. Is anyone aware of this issue.

Thanks

Hello!

Do you mean: https://api.gocd.org/current/#hosting-your-repository-on-gitlab ?

This might be relevant: https://github.com/gocd/gocd/blob/3e31c091e2dd78c50facc46562e17541e8bfa711/server/webapp/WEB-INF/rails/app/controllers/api/web_hooks/git_lab_controller.rb#L48

Maybe the assumption is that merge events show up on a pipeline tracking master, and that's expected to be polling? I can see why merge events being ignored could be a problem.

Cheers,
Aravind

Yes,
I figured it out later in the code that it allows only push events.
This might be a feature that you might want to include. Since many who
are doing trunk based development in enterprises use merge requests
approval as the entry point to master and trigger build only on that
event or else the pipelines goes for a loop of instances.

For now we have figured a work around.

Thanks
