How to use GitLab with your Orka environment. MacStadium provides seamless integration between Orka and GitLab. Both Shell and custom executors are supported. MacStadium provides scripts and a template configuration for custom executors.
IMPORTANT Orka 3.1.x and above requires version v2.0.0+ of the plugin.

​
Set up a Shell executor

Shell executors are useful when you need permanent executors that you can reuse across builds. For the latest information about how to work with a Shell executor in Orka, see Using a GitLab Shell Executor to Run CI/CD Pipelines in Orka.

​
Set up a custom executor

Custom executors are useful when you need to work with ephemeral executors and automate their management. With a custom executor, an executor is created before the pipeline is run and destroyed after the pipeline is complete. For the latest information about how to work with a custom executor in Orka, see Using a GitLab Custom Executor to Run CI/CD Pipelines in Orka.
