      <p>As I work on various projects, I use several different CI tools, such as GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines, and GitLab CI, as well as hosting providers that have build and deploy steps.</p>

      <p>Some only run continuous integration checks, like automated tests and static analysis, some build and push Docker images, and some use Ansible and Ansistrano to deploy the changes to production.</p>

      <p>Each tool has its configuration file with different settings and formats.</p>

      <p>Rather than being too tightly coupled to a particular tool, I like to keep things as agnostic as possible and <a href="/daily/2022/08/15/using-run-file-simplify-project-tasks">use a run file</a> with separate <code>ci:build</code> and <code>ci:deploy</code> tasks.</p>

      <p>This means that all the logic is within the run file rather than the CI tool-specific configuration file, so the file is shorter and cleaner; I can make changes to the CI tasks locally and quickly test changes and iterate, and also, as the logic is within the run file, I can easily switch to a different CI tool if needed without making changes to the tasks themselves.</p>
