INTRO AND GOALS

AUTOMATED BUILD SYSTEM WITH DOCKER, JENKINS, AZURE, AND GO

AUTOMATED BUILD SYSTEM WITH DOCKER, JENKINS, AZURE, AND GO

OUTCOMES

▸ As a build engineer I want to:

▸ Avoid setting up environment after environment for dev teams

▸ Concentrate on keeping the infrastructure healthy

▸ Work to implement new features to streamline processes

▸ As a software developer I want to:

▸ Control my software through to production without impediments

▸ Have freedom to create build environments without making special requests

WHAT WILL THIS SOLUTION LOOK LIKE?

▸ Dev creates a docker image for build environment (hopefully uses it locally to run, test and debug)

▸ Dev writes tests and code

▸ Dev adds a text file to repository that contains the Jenkins pipeline script

▸ Dev pushes Docker image to the organization's private Docker registry

▸ Dev then uses a tool (currently command line) to create the build job/CI/CD pipeline - I will open source the code for this tool

WHAT WILL THIS SOLUTION LOOK LIKE?

▸ So with a command like:

▸ harbormaster --dockertlsfolder /tlsCerts/ -registryuser user -registrypassword correcthorsebatteystaple -imagename bargelt-slavedotnet -label teambargelt_dotnetcore_simpleDotNet -jenkinsurl http://dockerbuild.harebrained-apps.com -jenkinsuser steve -jenkinspassword correcthorsebatteystaple -report https://github.com/stevebargelt/simpleDotNet.git

▸ Magic happens…

AUTOMATED BUILD SYSTEM WITH DOCKER, JENKINS, AZURE, AND GO

MAGIC…

▸ Docker image is pulled to docker host

▸ Docker container created and started

▸ Test performed on Docker container

▸ Actually works!

▸ Conforms to standards

▸ Jenkins Docker Template is created

▸ Jenkins Job is created

STEP BY STEP

▸ Setup Docker in Azure

▸ Run Jenkins in Docker… in Azure

▸ Setup Jenkins to spin up ephemeral (Docker containers) Jenkins slaves

▸ Setup a Docker registry in Azure (including getting TLS/SSL certs)

▸ Write all the code (in Go) to allow hands-off build job creation

▸ Walk through creating software utilizing this system

THIS TUTORIAL SERIES

▸ Videos and details step-by-step blog posts

▸ Six installments planned

▸ More enhancement ideas to follow

▸ Expand to AWS

▸ I am use this system for my own projects so I’ll keep it up-to-date

WHAT THIS SERIES IS NOT

▸ No fluff

▸ Not going to explain Docker / Containers

▸ Not going to debate tech choices
