The DevOps 2.1 Toolkit: Docker Swarm

By: Viktor Farcic

Overview of this book

Viktor Farcic's latest book, The DevOps 2.1 Toolkit: Docker Swarm, takes you deeper into one of the major subjects of his international best seller, The DevOps 2.0 Toolkit, and shows you how to successfully integrate Docker Swarm into your DevOps toolset. Viktor shares with you his expert knowledge in all aspects of building, testing, deploying, and monitoring services inside Docker Swarm clusters. You'll go through all the tools required for running a cluster. You'll travel through the whole process with clusters running locally on a laptop. Once you're confident with that outcome, Viktor shows you how to translate your experience to different hosting providers like AWS, Azure, and DigitalOcean. Viktor has updated his DevOps 2.0 framework in this book to use the latest and greatest features and techniques introduced in Docker. We'll go through many practices and even more tools. While there will be a lot of theory, this is a hands-on book. You won't be able to complete it by reading it on the metro on your way to work. You'll have to read this book while in front of the computer and get your hands dirty.

Embracing Destruction: Pets versus Cattle

Creating Jenkins Pipeline jobs


We’ll start by defining a few environment variables. The reason behind declaring those variables is that we want to have a single place where critical information is stored. That way, when something changes (example:entry point to the cluster) we can modify a variable or two, and the changes will be propagated throughout all jobs.

Off we go. First, we need to open Jenkins global configuration screen:

open "http://$(docker-machine ip swarm-1):8082/jenkins/configure"

 

Note

A note to Windows users: Git Bash might not be able to use the open command. If that's the case, execute docker-machine ip <SERVER_NAME> to find out the IP of the machine and open the URL directly in your browser of choice. For example, the command above should be replaced with the command that follows:docker-machine ip swarm-1 If the output would be 1.2.3.4, you should open http://1.2.3.4:8082/jenkins/configure in your browser.

Once inside the configuration screen, please click the Environment...
