+## GitLab Push EventListener
+
+Creates an EventListener that listens for Gitlab webhook events.
+
+### Try it out locally:
+
+1. Create the service account:
+
+   ```shell script
+   kubectl apply -f examples/role-resources/triggerbinding-roles
+   kubectl apply -f examples/role-resources/
+   ```
+
+1. Create the Gitlab EventListener:
+
+   ```shell script
+   kubectl apply -f examples/gitlab/gitlab-push-listener.yaml
+   ```
+
+1. Port forward:
+
+   ```shell script
+   kubectl port-forward \
+    "$(kubectl get pod --selector=eventlistener=gitlab-listener -oname)" \
+     8080
+   ```
+
+   **Note**: Instead of port forwarding, you can set the
+   [`serviceType`](https://github.com/tektoncd/triggers/blob/master/docs/eventlisteners.md#serviceType)
+   to `LoadBalancer` to expose the EventListener with a public IP.
+
+1. Test by sending the sample payload.
+
+   ```shell script
+   curl -v \
+   -H 'X-GitLab-Token: abcde' \
+   -H 'X-Gitlab-Event: Push Hook' \
+   -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+   --data-binary "@examples/gitlab/gitlab-push-event.json" \
+   http://localhost:8080
+   ```
+
+   The response status code should be `201 Created`
+
+1. You should see a new TaskRun that got created:
+
+   ```shell script
+   kubectl get taskruns | grep gitlab-run-
+   ```
