GItlab: has there any way we can select the variable values as drop down menu

Question

In Gitlab ci We have declared our variables like below

 USER_NAME:
    value: ""  
    description: "Enter Username"
  File_Name:
    description: "Enter the file name"

It only give a text box where We can enter the value.

Can I make a drop down select box is there any option available to make it a select box.Then we can select the value from drop down.

Answer 1

No it is not possible. What we ended up doing, if we want to have a better configurable way, was using the gitlab pages with a form, which will use the API or a POST to create a new pipeline. This way we are quiet flexible with the options to provide to the users.

Answer 2

I see an active proposal for it https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/29159 (almost 2 years). But no activity for the moment.

What was missing for me is this migration https://github.com/flutter/flutter/wiki/Upgrading-pre-1.12-Android-projects. Notably, your MainActivity needs to extend io.flutter.embedding.android.FlutterActivity and not io.flutter.app.FlutterActivity.

Also,you need to configure an AutoFill service in the system settings.

Working sample code:

 @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) => Scaffold(
    appBar: AppBar(
      title: Text("Login"),
    ),
    body: AutofillGroup(
        child: Column(
      children: [
        TextField(
          autofillHints: [AutofillHints.email],
          keyboardType: TextInputType.emailAddress,
        ),
        TextField(
          autofillHints: [AutofillHints.password],
          keyboardType: TextInputType.text,
        ),
      ],
    )));
