| # Using uv in GitLab CI/CD
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Using the uv image
 | |
| 
 | |
| Astral provides [Docker images](docker.md#available-images) with uv preinstalled.
 | |
| Select a variant that is suitable for your workflow.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml title="gitlab-ci.yml"
 | |
| variables:
 | |
|   UV_VERSION: 0.5
 | |
|   PYTHON_VERSION: 3.12
 | |
|   BASE_LAYER: bookworm-slim
 | |
| 
 | |
| stages:
 | |
|   - analysis
 | |
| 
 | |
| uv:
 | |
|   stage: analysis
 | |
|   image: ghcr.io/astral-sh/uv:$UV_VERSION-python$PYTHON_VERSION-$BASE_LAYER
 | |
|   script:
 | |
|     # your `uv` commands
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| !!! note
 | |
| 
 | |
|     If you are using a distroless image, you have to specify the entrypoint:
 | |
|     ```yaml
 | |
|     uv:
 | |
|       image:
 | |
|         name: ghcr.io/astral-sh/uv:$UV_VERSION
 | |
|         entrypoint: [""]
 | |
|       # ...
 | |
|     ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Caching
 | |
| 
 | |
| Persisting the uv cache between workflow runs can improve performance.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| uv-install:
 | |
|   variables:
 | |
|     UV_CACHE_DIR: .uv-cache
 | |
|   cache:
 | |
|     - key:
 | |
|         files:
 | |
|           - uv.lock
 | |
|       paths:
 | |
|         - $UV_CACHE_DIR
 | |
|   script:
 | |
|     # Your `uv` commands
 | |
|     - uv cache prune --ci
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| See the [GitLab caching documentation](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/caching/) for more details on
 | |
| configuring caching.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using `uv cache prune --ci` at the end of the job is recommended to reduce cache size. See the [uv
 | |
| cache documentation](../../concepts/cache.md#caching-in-continuous-integration) for more details.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Using `uv pip`
 | |
| 
 | |
| If using the `uv pip` interface instead of the uv project interface, uv requires a virtual
 | |
| environment by default. To allow installing packages into the system environment, use the `--system`
 | |
| flag on all uv invocations or set the `UV_SYSTEM_PYTHON` variable.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The `UV_SYSTEM_PYTHON` variable can be defined in at different scopes. You can read more about
 | |
| how [variables and their precedence works in GitLab here](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/variables/)
 | |
| 
 | |
| Opt-in for the entire workflow by defining it at the top level:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml title="gitlab-ci.yml"
 | |
| variables:
 | |
|   UV_SYSTEM_PYTHON: 1
 | |
| 
 | |
| # [...]
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| To opt-out again, the `--no-system` flag can be used in any uv invocation.
 | |
| 
 | |
| When persisting the cache, you may want to use `requirements.txt` or `pyproject.toml` as
 | |
| your cache key files instead of `uv.lock`.
