Jenkins Pipelines Examples

Keep a few examples of Jenkins Pipelines. Mostly used for demo and training.

Look in each directory and find the Jenkinsfile with the example. See more details are in the Jenkinsfile comments.

You are more than welcome to contribute, share and ask.

Setup Local Jenkins

These examples assume a simple setup of a single Jenkins master and two agents.

The setup is installed and run in a Vagrant image.

Spin up the Vagrant VM

Run the following in the root of the repository

# Spin up the Vagrant VM
$ vagrant up

# Once finished, ssh into VM
$ vagrant ssh

Prepare variables

• Go into the directory that has the repository files

$ cd /opt/provisioning/

• Load ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES:

$ source env/vars.sh

Start a local Jenkins master

• Prepare directories and permissions

# Permissions on /var/run/docker.sock
$ sudo chmod 666 /var/run/docker.sock

# Directory for Jenkins home
$ mkdir -p ~/jenkins_home
$ chmod -R 777 ~/jenkins_home

• Build the custom Jenkins Docker image

# Build Jenkins Docker Image
$ docker-compose -f env/docker-compose-jenkins.yml build

• Create custom Jenkins network (where master and agents will live in harmony)

$ docker network create jenkins_network

• Start the Jenkins master

$ docker-compose -f env/docker-compose-jenkins.yml up -d

• Browse to http://192.168.0.20:8080 and complete the initial setup wizard
  • Get initial admin password from docker logs jenkins-master output
  • Install suggested plugins
  • Install the Docker Slaves Plugin (for dynamic Docker agent provisioning per build)
  • Install the Blue Ocean plugin (recommended)
  • Define two Jenkins agents (slaves)
  • Create two nodes from the Manage Jenkins -> Manage Nodes
  • Call the nodes agent1 and agent2
  • Set remote root directory to /home/jenkins
  • Configure them to Launch method -> Launch agent via Java Web Start
  • Get the secret token for each node (AGENT1_TOKEN and AGENT2_TOKEN)
  • Provide token in env/vars.sh file
  • Reload ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES:

  $ source env/vars.sh

Start two Jenkins agents (slaves)

Once you have the tokens for the agents, start the two agents

$ docker-compose -f env/docker-compose-agents.yml up -d

Create Pipeline jobs

You can create a Pipeline type job using any of the provided examples in the different directories

Note:

Known bug for Docker Slaves Plugin

java.io.IOException: Failed to create docker image

How to solve: Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> Docker Slaves -> Remoting image should be jenkins/slave
