The DevOps 2.4 Toolkit

By: Viktor Farcic

Overview of this book

Building on The DevOps 2.3 Toolkit: Kubernetes, Viktor Farcic brings his latest exploration of the Docker technology as he records his journey to continuously deploying applications with Jenkins into a Kubernetes cluster. The DevOps 2.4 Toolkit: Continuously Deploying Applications with Jenkins to a Kubernetes Cluster is the latest book in Viktor Farcic’s series that helps you build a full DevOps Toolkit. This book guides readers through the process of building, testing, and deploying applications through fully automated pipelines. Within this book, Viktor will cover a wide-range of emerging topics, including an exploration of continuous delivery and deployment in Kubernetes using Jenkins. It also shows readers how to perform continuous integration inside these clusters, and discusses the distribution of Kubernetes applications, as well as installing and setting up Jenkins. Work with Viktor and dive into the creation of self-adaptive and self-healing systems within Docker.

Now It Is Your Turn

Installing Jenkins

We already automated Jenkins installation so that it provides all the features we need out-of-the-box. Therefore, the exercises that follow should be very straightforward. If you are a Docker for Mac or Windows, minikube, or minishift user, we'll need to bring back up the VM we suspended in the previous chapter. Feel free to skip the commands that follow if you are hosting your cluster in AWS or GCP.

 1  cd cd/docker-build
2
3 vagrant up

5 cd ../../

7 export DOCKER_VM=true

If you prefer running your cluster in AWS with kops or EKS, we'll need to retrieve the AMI ID we stored in docker-ami.log in the previous chapter.

 1  AMI_ID=$(grep 'artifact,0,id' \
 2      cluster/docker-ami.log \
 3      | cut -d: -f2)
4 5 echo $AMI_ID

If GKE is your cluster of choice, we'll need to define variables G_PROJECT and G_AUTH_FILE which...
