Integrating Cookiecutter with yaml pipelines in Azure DevOps to automatically scaffold repos, provides a simple and repeatable workflow and further minimises manual effort. This will show how we can set up this automation in DevOPs via yaml pipelines.
Ever wondered how you can scaffold repos in a yaml pipeline? This post will show how we could do this in Azure DevOps.
For code development projects, we often end up creating code repositories (repos) that have similar structures or components to what we have previously used.
Cookiecutter is a tool that we can use to scaffold the creation of our repos and this post will guide you through how to do this and more.
It can be a challenge to keep code formatted consistently and with a lack of consistency, errors soon follow.
In part 3 of this pre-commit hooks series, we’ll focus on how we can use pre-commit hooks in Azure git repos, to automatically check for stylistic and programmatic errors in SQL scripts.
Even with the advent of cloud computing and all manner of technology enhancements, exposing secrets seems to be a problem that won’t go away.
Without the right controls in place, developers can leak secrets that can cause financial and reputational damage to an organisation.
In part 2, we’ll look at how we can use a pre-commit hook to try and detect secrets in our code.
