# GitLab CI/CD

This example uses [GitLab CI/CD](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/) to build the Earthly target `+build`.

# .gitlab-ci.yml

services:
  - docker:dind

variables:
  DOCKER_HOST: tcp://docker:2375
  FORCE_COLOR: 1
  EARTHLY_EXEC_CMD: "/bin/sh"

image: earthly/earthly:v0.6.30

before_script:
    - earthly bootstrap
    - docker login -u $CI_REGISTRY_USER -p $CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD $CI_REGISTRY

earthly:
  stage: build
  script:
    - earthly --ci --push -P +build
```
