1. Installation GitLab docker container

## 1.0 Export ENV
export GITLAB_HOME=<path> // persistent storage for gitlab container

## 1.1 Create following docker compose file (adjust ports if necessary)
services:
  gitlab:
    image: gitlab/gitlab-ce:latest
    container_name: gitlab
    restart: always
    hostname: 'localhost'
    ports:
      - '80:80'
      - '443:443'
      - '1022:22'
    volumes:
      - '$GITLAB_HOME/config:/etc/gitlab'
      - '$GITLAB_HOME/logs:/var/log/gitlab'
      - '$GITLAB_HOME/data:/var/opt/gitlab'
    shm_size: '256m'
    
## 1.2 Start docker container
docker compose up -d 	// from folder where compose file resides   

## 1.3 Reset root password using ssh
docker exec -it gitlab /bin/bash 	// open shell on gitlab container
gitlab-rake "gitlab:password:reset"		// might take a minute to load

## 1.4 Register new user in gitlab
<use ui>

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/tutorials/create_register_first_runner/

## 2.1 Install gitlab runner (https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/install/linux-manually.html)
skip dedicated user, instead use:
sudo gitlab-runner install --user=dev --working-directory=/home/dev/projects/gitops/gitlab-runner

## 2.2 Create GitLab project
<use ui>

## 2.3 Create .gitlab-ci.yml 
stages:
- build
- test

job_build:
stage: build
script:
	- echo "Building the project"

job_test:
stage: test
script:
	- echo "Running tests"
