 */

namespace WHMCS\Module\DevOps\GitLab;

class GitLabCIManager {
    /**
     * Generate .gitlab-ci.yml
     */
    public function generateCIConfig(): string {
        return <<<YAML
stages:
  - lint
  - test
  - build
  - deploy

lint:
  stage: lint
  script:
    - composer install
    - vendor/bin/phpcs

test:
  stage: test
  services:
    - mysql:8.0
  script:
    - cp .env.example .env
    - composer install
    - vendor/bin/phpunit

build:
  stage: build
  script:
    - docker build -t whmcs:\$CI_COMMIT_SHA .

deploy:
