ci-info

What is ci-info?

The ci-info npm package provides information about the Continuous Integration (CI) environment that your code is running in. It can detect if the current environment is a CI server and provide details about which one it is. This is useful for adjusting the behavior of your application or scripts based on whether they are being run in a CI environment or not.

What are ci-info's main functionalities?

Detecting CI environment

This feature allows you to check if your code is running in a CI environment. The property 'isCI' will be true if it is, or false otherwise.

const ci = require('ci-info');

if (ci.isCI) {
  console.log('The code is running in a CI environment.');
} else {
  console.log('This is not a CI environment.');
}

Identifying specific CI service

This feature allows you to check for specific CI services. Each supported CI service has a corresponding property that will be true if the code is running on that service.

const ci = require('ci-info');

if (ci.TRAVIS) {
  console.log('The code is running on Travis CI.');
}

Getting CI service name

This feature allows you to retrieve the name of the CI service that the code is running on, if it is running in a CI environment.

const ci = require('ci-info');

if (ci.isCI) {
  console.log(`The CI service name is ${ci.name}`);
}

Other packages similar to ci-info

is-ci

Similar to ci-info, is-ci is a simple package that allows you to detect if your code is running in a CI environment. However, it does not provide detailed information about which CI service is being used.

env-ci

env-ci is another package that provides information about the CI environment. It offers similar functionality to ci-info, but also includes additional metadata such as branch name, build number, and commit information.

API

ci.name

Returns a string containing name of the CI server the code is running on. If CI server is not detected, it returns null.

Don't depend on the value of this string not to change for a specific vendor. If you find your self writing ci.name === 'Travis CI', you most likely want to use ci.TRAVIS instead.

ci.isCI

Returns a boolean. Will be true if the code is running on a CI server, otherwise false.

Some CI servers not listed here might still trigger the ci.isCI boolean to be set to true if they use certain vendor neutral environment variables. In those cases ci.name will be null and no vendor specific boolean will be set to true.

ci.isPR

Returns a boolean if PR detection is supported for the current CI server. Will be true if a PR is being tested, otherwise false. If PR detection is not supported for the current CI server, the value will be null.

ci.<VENDOR-CONSTANT>

A vendor specific boolean constant is exposed for each support CI vendor. A constant will be true if the code is determined to run on the given CI server, otherwise false.

Examples of vendor constants are ci.TRAVIS or ci.APPVEYOR. For a complete list, see the support table above.

Deprecated vendor constants that will be removed in the next major release:

• ci.TDDIUM (Solano CI) This have been renamed ci.SOLANO
