Automatic Generation of CI/CD Pipelines Based on Project Metadata: A New Approach to Accelerating Software Development

The article addresses the issue of automating the configuration processes of CI/CD pipelines for software development and deployment. The authors analyze the existing challenges of manual configuration and propose an innovative approach based on utilizing project metadata for automatic pipeline generation. Purpose: to develop a method for automatic pipeline generation using metadata and to assess the impact of this approach on software development within CI/CD practices. To achieve this goal, a service implementing the proposed approach has been developed. Results: to demonstrate that automating pipeline configuration enhances development efficiency and reduces software delivery time. Practical significance: a potentially wide application of the proposed method across various software development domains would contribute to increased standardization and reduce labor costs. The discussion presents recommendations for further improvements to the developed service, explores its application prospects, and highlights areas requiring further research and development.
