Jenkins Contd
- We use Jenkins to create CI/CD pipelines which generally starts from the version control system like git.
- We need to clone the code and start building a package.
- Building a package depends on the language of your application.
- Cloning the code from git
- git url
- credentials (username/password or ssh key)
- branch
-
Lets consider the following two java opensource applications
- spring pet clinic:
- developed in java
- requires jdk 11
- repo url: Refer Here
- Lets clone
- Open MRS:
- developed in Java
- This is open medical record system
- repo url: Refer Here
- spring pet clinic:
- Jenkins will provide User Interfaces to help us increase the pace of creating cicd pipelines. These User Interfaces are added to jenkins by a concept called as plugins.
- While installing jenkins we have executed install plugins
- The UI below is from a plugin called as git plugin
- Lets clone openmrs
- Lets consider the following .net opensource application and clone it
- nop commerce
- default branch: develop
- Create a new jenkins job to clone the code Refer Here for repo url
- Clone the odoo Refer Here with default branch as v15.0
- As discussed in the session, We can clone code from git repo (public or private).
- Now we should be able
- to create the package/build from the cloned code.
- unit test the code and show the test results
- The above steps change from technology (java, .net, python, nodejs)
- To understand the build system and the unit test lets start by learning a tool called as maven, which helps in build a package for java based languages.
