+## GitLab Flavored Markdown (GFM)
GitLab uses "GitLab Flavored Markdown" (GFM). It extends the [CommonMark specification][commonmark-spec] (which is based on standard Markdown) in a few significant ways to add some useful functionality. It was inspired by [GitHub Flavored Markdown](https://help.github.com/articles/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax/).
You can use GFM in the following areas:
-- comments
-- issues
-- merge requests
-- milestones
-- snippets (the snippet must be named with a `.md` extension)
-- wiki pages
-- markdown documents inside the repository

# Connecting and deploying to an Amazon EKS cluster

From the left side bar, hover over `Operations` and select `Kubernetes`, then click on `Add Kubernetes cluster`, and finally `Add an existing Kubernetes cluster`.
A few details from the EKS cluster will be required to connect it to GitLab.
-1. A valid Kubernetes certificate and token are needed to authenticate to the EKS cluster. A pair is created by default, which can be used. Open a shell and use `kubectl` to retrieve them:
- * List the secrets with `kubectl get secrets`, and one should named similar to `default-token-xxxxx`. Copy that token name for use below.
- * Get the certificate with `kubectl get secret <secret name> -o jsonpath="{['data']['ca\.crt']}" | base64 -D`
- * Retrieve the token with `kubectl get secret <secret name> -o jsonpath="{['data']['token']}" | base64 -D`.
+1. **Retrieve the certificate**: A valid Kubernetes certificate is needed to authenticate to the EKS cluster. We will use the certificate created by default. Open a shell and use `kubectl` to retrieve it:
+ - List the secrets with `kubectl get secrets`, and one should named similar to `default-token-xxxxx`. Copy that token name for use below.
+ - Get the certificate with `kubectl get secret <secret name> -o jsonpath="{['data']['ca\.crt']}" | base64 -D`
+
+1. **Create admin token**: A `cluster-admin` token is required to install and manage Helm Tiller. GitLab establishes mutual SSL auth with Helm Tiller and creates limited service accounts for each application. To create the token we will create an admin service account as follows:
+
+ 1. Create a file called `eks-admin-service-account.yaml` with the text below:
+
+ ```yaml
+ apiVersion: v1
+ kind: ServiceAccount
+ metadata:
+ name: eks-admin
+ namespace: kube-system
+ ```
+
+ 2. Apply the service account to your cluster:
+
+ ```bash
+ kubectl apply -f eks-admin-service-account.yaml
+ ```
+
+ Output:
+
+ ```bash
+ serviceaccount "eks-admin" created
+ ```
+
+ 3. Create a file called `eks-admin-cluster-role-binding.yaml` with the text below:
+
+ ```yaml
+ apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1beta1
+ kind: ClusterRoleBinding
+ metadata:
+ name: eks-admin
+ roleRef:
+ apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
+ kind: ClusterRole
+ name: cluster-admin
+ subjects:
+ - kind: ServiceAccount
+ name: eks-admin
+ namespace: kube-system
+ ```
+
+ 4. Apply the cluster role binding to your cluster:
+
+ ```bash
+ kubectl apply -f eks-admin-cluster-role-binding.yaml
+ ```
+
+ Output:
+
+ ```bash
+ clusterrolebinding "eks-admin" created
+ ```
+
+ 5. Retrieve the token for the `eks-admin` service account. Copy the `<authentication_token>` value from the output.
+
+ ```bash
+ kubectl -n kube-system describe secret $(kubectl -n kube-system get secret | grep eks-admin | awk '{print $1}')
+ ```
+
+ Output:

1. The API server endpoint is also required, so GitLab can connect to the cluster. This is displayed on the AWS EKS console, when viewing the EKS cluster details.
You now have all the information needed to connect the EKS cluster:
-* Kubernetes cluster name: Provide a name for the cluster to identify it within GitLab.
-* Environment scope: Leave this as `*` for now, since we are only connecting a single cluster.
-* API URL: Paste in the API server endpoint retrieved above.
-* CA Certificate: Paste the certificate data from the earlier step, as-is.
-* Paste the token value. Note on some versions of Kubernetes a trailing `%` is output, do not include it.
-* Project namespace: This can be left blank to accept the default namespace, based on the project name.

+When connecting a cluster via GitLab integration, you may specify whether the cluster is RBAC-enabled or not. This will affect how GitLab interacts with the cluster for certain operations. If you **did not** check the "RBAC-enabled cluster" checkbox at creation time, GitLab will assume RBAC is disabled for your cluster when interacting with it. If so, you must disable RBAC on your cluster for the integration to work properly.

+# Discord Notifications service
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/merge_requests/22684) in GitLab 11.5.
+
+The Discord Notifications service sends event notifications from GitLab to the channel for which the webhook was created.
+
+To send GitLab event notifications to a Discord channel, create a webhook in Discord and configure it in GitLab.
+
+## Create webhook
+
+1. Open the Discord channel you want to receive GitLab event notifications.
+1. From the channel menu, select **Edit channel**.
+1. Click on **Webhooks** menu item.
+1. Click the **Create Webhook** button and fill in the name of the bot that will post the messages. Optionally, edit the avatar.
+1. Note the URL from the **WEBHOOK URL** field.
+1. Click the **Save** button.
+
+## Configure created webhook in GitLab
+
+With the webhook URL created in the Discord channel, you can set up the Discord Notifications service in GitLab.
+
+1. Navigate to the [Integrations page](project_services.md#accessing-the-project-services) in your project's settings. That is, **Project > Settings > Integrations**.
+1. Select the **Discord Notifications** project service to configure it.
+1. Check the **Active** checkbox to turn on the service.
+1. Check the checkboxes corresponding to the GitLab events for which you want to send notifications to Discord.
+1. Paste the webhook URL that you copied from the create Discord webhook step.
+1. Configure the remaining options and click the **Save changes** button.
+
+The Discord channel you created the webhook for will now receive notification of the GitLab events that were configured.

+## Troubleshooting
+
+Sometimes things don't go as expected in a merge request, here are some
+troubleshooting steps.
+
+### Merge request cannot retrieve the pipeline status
+
+This can occur for one of two reasons:
+
+* Sidekiq doesn't pick up the changes fast enough
+* Because of the bug described in [#41545](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/41545)
+
+#### Sidekiq
+
+Sidekiq didn't process the CI state change fast enough. Please wait a few
+seconds and the status will update automatically.
+
+#### Bug
+
+Merge Request pipeline statuses can't be retrieved when the following occurs:
+
+1. A Merge Requst is created
+1. The Merge Request is closed
+1. Changes are made in the project
+1. The Merge Request is reopened
+
+To enable the pipeline status to be properly retrieved, close and reopen the
+Merge Request again.

Use GitLab's [file finder](../../../workflow/file_finder.md) to search for files in a repository.
+### Supported markup languages and extensions
+
+GitLab supports a number of markup languages (sometimes called [lightweight
+markup languages](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_markup_language))
+that you can use for the content of your files in a repository. They are mostly
+used for documentation purposes.
+
+Just pick the right extension for your files and GitLab will render them
+according to the markup language.
+
+| Markup language | Extensions |
+| --------------- | ---------- |
+| Plain text | `txt` |
+| [Markdown](../../markdown.md) | `mdown`, `mkd`, `mkdn`, `md`, `markdown` |
+| [reStructuredText](http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html) | `rst` |
+| [Asciidoc](https://asciidoctor.org/docs/what-is-asciidoc/) | `adoc`, `ad`, `asciidoc` |

+| [creole](http://www.wikicreole.org/) | `creole` |
+| [Mediawiki](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki) | `wiki`, `mediawiki` |
+
+### Repository README and index files
+
+When a `README` or `index` file is present in a repository, its contents will be
+automatically pre-rendered by GitLab without opening it.
+
+They can either be plain text or have an extension of a
+[supported markup language](#supported-markup-languages-and-extensions):
+
+Some things to note about precedence:
+
+1. When both a `README` and an `index` file are present, the `README` will always
+ take precedence.
+1. When more than one file is present with different extensions, they are
+ ordered alphabetically, with the exception of a file without an extension
+ which will always be last in precedence. For example, `README.adoc` will take
+ precedence over `README.md`, and `README.rst` will take precedence over
+ `README`.
