glab-pipeline: Run a manual pipeline on the current branch.
$ glab pipeline run
try on your machine

The command "glab pipeline run" is used in GitLab to manually trigger a pipeline run for a project. When executed, this command starts a pipeline job, which is a set of instructions that define a series of actions to be performed, such as building and testing code, deploying applications, and running scripts, among others.

Here is a breakdown of the command structure:

  • "glab": This is the command-line tool provided by GitLab to interact with GitLab repositories from the command line.
  • "pipeline": This is a subcommand that allows you to perform actions related to pipelines.
  • "run": This is an argument that specifies the action you want to take, which is to trigger a pipeline run.

By running "glab pipeline run", you can trigger a pipeline run manually instead of relying on automatic triggers like repository pushes or scheduled jobs. This can be useful when you want to test changes, deploy code, or execute specific tasks outside of the regular pipeline schedule.
