Multibranch pipeline / Gitlab integration: tag push events

[Samuel Mutel]

Hello,

I would like to know if someone has already setup the multibranch pipeline and the gitlab integration to start a job when a tag is pushed?

I setup the integration in GITLAB project, I setup also the multibranch pipeline. When a code is pushing to the master branch, it is working fine.

But if I create a new tag and push it. It is created in the tag tab in multibranch pipeline but the job is not started automatically.

Any idea?

Thanks.

You can use Generic Webhook Trigger Plugin:

 https://github.com/jenkinsci/generic-webhook-trigger-plugin

You will need to setup a filter to trigger only for tag events. That is documented here:

 https://github.com/jenkinsci/generic-webhook-trigger-plugin/blob/master/src/test/resources/org/jenkinsci/plugins/gwt/bdd/gitlab/gitlab-tag_push.feature

And here is something to get you started with the Jenkinsfile:
