Extend variables keyword for DAST on-demand scans
What does this MR do?
adds an extension to ee
Gitlab::Ci::Pipeline::Seed::Build
that adds variables from referenced dast
profiles.
Example
when you define the variable DAST_SITE_PROFILE
or DAST_SCANNER_PROFILE
in a job as part of the dast
stage in the .gitlab.yml
we will look up those records in the database by name and add the calculated variables to the job
using DastSiteProfile#ci_variables
and DastScannerProfile#ci_variables
.
stages:
- dast
- test
dast:
stage: dast
variables:
DAST_SITE_PROFILE: site-profile-name
DAST_SCANNER_PROFILE: scanner-profile-name
script:
- env
Context
with dast
we have the concept of on-demand scans, which essentially entails storing dast
config in the database (dast_scanner_profiles
and dast_site_profiles
) and triggering scans via GraphQL on a manual basis. the proposal here is to reference those database entities by name in the .gitlab-ci.yml
and seed their configuration into pipelines triggered via the regular ci/cd process.
Why?
we want to give customers the ability to use dast
profiles in yaml
in order to simplify the configuration of DAST for customers.
