Here is drip irrigation 101
1st you need to connect .7" (actually .7" inside diameter and different manufacturer create different sizes, all called the same thing) flexible pipe to a water source. The easiest way is with a hose bib connector, shown here. You screw the adapter to a hose bib (or a Y connector on the hose bib, so you can still run a hose) and shove the .7" tubing into it. The compression fitting holds the pipe in. There are many other ways to connect to existing sprinkler systems or other water sources.
