GitLab CI Pipeline Generator
Generate a working .gitlab-ci.yml with stages, dependency caching and build artifacts.
Runs 100% in your browser — nothing is ever uploaded.
What is GitLab CI Generator?
This free GitLab CI generator writes a .gitlab-ci.yml pipeline for Node.js, Python or Docker projects. Toggle test and build stages, enable lockfile-keyed dependency caching so repeat runs are fast, and attach build artifacts with sensible expiry. The Docker variant includes docker-in-docker services and registry login with pushes gated to your default branch — production patterns, generated in your browser.
How to use GitLab CI Generator
- Open the tool — no signup, no upload, everything runs in your browser.
- Fill in the pipeline options in the form; sensible defaults are pre-selected.
- The .gitlab-ci.yml output updates instantly with every change you make.
- Copy the result or download it as a ready-to-use file.
Frequently asked questions
Is this GitLab CI generator free to use?
Yes — this GitLab CI generator is completely free with no signup, no limits, and no watermarks. Use it as often as you like.
How does caching differ from artifacts in GitLab CI?
Cache is a best-effort speed-up shared between pipeline runs — perfect for node_modules or pip downloads, and jobs must survive a cache miss. Artifacts are guaranteed files passed from one stage to the next and downloadable from the UI — that's where your build output belongs.
Is my configuration data private?
Absolutely. Everything is generated locally in your browser with JavaScript — no data, settings, or file contents are ever sent to any server.
Do these tools touch my servers?
No. OpsForge tools are pure calculators and generators that run in your browser — they never connect to your infrastructure. You copy the result and apply it yourself.
Is the chmod calculator accurate for all systems?
Yes — octal permission notation is a POSIX standard, so the results apply identically on Linux, macOS and BSD.
Will more DevOps tools be added?
Yes — Dockerfile, docker-compose, nginx and CI config generators are on the roadmap. Everything will stay free and client-side.
