What is CI/CD

CI : Continuous integration

CD:
a. Continuous Delivery b. Continuous Deployment

Preview

In the last Kubernetes Videos I made, I mentioned about how to CI/CD in the Kubernetes , I recently just figured it out and this is how it works

And as I said before , no MIS/IT need to directly access the K8S

For this we need

1. Git repo( I used Github for convenience)

2. Jenkins Master Server

3. Docker runner

4. Docker repo(I used Dockerhub)

5. Helm

6. Kubernetes

So I download the official Jenkins docker image , and custom it (add sudoer on Jenkins and install docker-ce on it , it’s a debian )

I need Jenkins to run the docker and Helm , but I need them to run on the host , not inside the container , so I used Docker out of Docker (DOOD)

build the docker image in local with name myjenkins

run the image with outside docker helm binary inside the container

docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 -d --name jenkins -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /etc/sysconfig/docker:/etc/sysconfig/docker -v ~/jenkins_home:/var/jenkins_home -v /usr/local/bin/helm:/usr/local/bin/helm -v ~/.kube:/root/.kube -v ~/.helm:/hlm -e HELM_HOME=/hlm --privileged myjenkins

(it’s a really long cli, but it did the tricks )

No we have Jenkins right now , with IP:8080, we need config the Jenkins and install some plugins

Install Puligns : Pipeline Suit, Github and Pipeline utility step

What’s on the Git Hub

How to create a pipeline job on Jenkins

Create two credentials , one for github, one for dockerhub

Create a pipeline

Config only this

How it works

Before

1. Helm status

2. Docker hub

3. Kubernetes

4. Index.html version

5. Jenkins file build tag

Running the pipeline job

After

We have the helm deploy and docker image on local

Dockerhub

On Kubernetes we have a new name space and new deployments

And the ingress and website

Deploy success

Then how to continuous delivery/deployment

Change the index.html and jenkinsfile buildtag from 1.0 to 2.0

And run the job again

Helm status and docker images

Dockerhub

On kubernetes

And the website changed

Done

Having a lot to show , but this is already too long , all the code is on my github ,feel free to ask me and review it online ,all ideas are appreciated

Thanks
