Ok, you develop a Kodi add-on and you would like to have CI for your code. What options do you have? How Kodi add-ons can be tested? And how to configure a CI for a Kodi add-on code? Let me share my experience.

During add-on development I use Kodi installed on my operating system for testing. But what if I need to test my changes on various Kodi versions? It's not so easy to install different versions of a package on such distros as Ubuntu. We could try some Kodi container image but I decided to build my own.

In this post I'll explain how to create your own Kodi add-on repository, deploy it on Netlify and automate that workflow.
