Jenkins Class Notes

Jenkins is an open source tool used for continuous integration and continuous delivery. It automates the build and deployment process by pulling code from source control repositories like Git, running builds, executing tests, and deploying to servers. Jenkins jobs can be configured to build and deploy Maven projects from a Git repository on a scheduled basis and notify teams by email. Pipelines in Jenkins allow connecting multiple jobs together to model different environments like development, testing, and production.

=============================Jenkins=================================

Jenkins is a CI & CD tool which is used to automate application


build & deployment process.

CI & CD : Continuos Integration and Continuos Delivery.

It is an open source software

It was developed by Sun MicroSystem as part of Hudson Project(2004)

It is renamed to 'Jenkins' in 2011 by Oracle Corporataion.

It is developed in java (Now it is migrated to Spring)

As part of Jenkins we are going to use below tools


----------------------------------------------------
1) Maven
2) SVN or GIT

Maven : It is a build tool


-------------------------
-> To download Jars
-> Compilation of java classes
-> Test excecution (Junits)
-> Packaging (jar/war/ear)

GIT
---
It is Repository Server

We are going to store project source code in Git Repository

Note : In Git repository we will maintain branches.

Git branches are specific to environments.

Application Environments
-------------------------
DEV
QA
UAT
Pilot
Production etc..

Teams
-----
Functional Team
Dev Team
Testing Team
Build Team (DevOps Team)

Developer Roles
---------------
1) Understanding Requirements
2) Desiging Requriements
3) Coding
4) Unit Testing
5) Integration Testing
6) Code Review
7) Push Code To Repository
8) Send Email to DevOps team to create Job
9) Deploy code to server using Jenkins job

DevOps Team Roles


-----------------
1) Install Jenkins Software
2) Create Environments
3) Create jobs

Build + Deployment Process


-------------------------
1) Pull code from Git Repo
2) Compile source code
3) Execute Junits
4) Packaging application
5) Deploy war to server

Deployment we can do in 2 ways


-------------------------------
1) Manual Deployment
2) Automated Deployment

Note: Manual deployment requires resources & they need to spend lot of time to
deploy.

To avoid manual deployment challenges now a days companies preferring automated


deployment by using tools like Jenkins.

To do build and deployment process, we are going to use Jenkins software.

Installing Jenkins Software


---------------------------
1) Download Jenkins zip file based OS
2) Extract that zip then you can see jenkins.msi
3) After Installing Jenkins execute below command

java -jar jenkins.war

Note: Default Port number is 8080

To start jenkins with different port number use below command

java -jar jenkins.war --httpPort=9090

4) Open Browser and enter localhost:9090

5) Unlock Jenkins screen will be opened. Enter admin password and click on Continue

6) Click on Selected Plugins options

7) Create Account with username & password

Creating First Job


-------------------
1) File ---> New Item -> Enter Job Name
-> Freestyle Project

2) Enter Description

3) Source Code management --> None

4) Build trigger -> Periodically


Cron expression --> * * * * *

5) Build -> Execute Windows command

6) Post Build Actions (Skip it)

Git Repo URL :


----------------
https://github.com/Java-Project-03-9AM/SpringFormApp.git

Build Tool : Maven

Create Jenkins Job to Deploy Maven Project which is in Git Repo


---------------------------------------------------------------
1) Install Java
2) Start Jenkins
3) Add JAVA_HOME in jenkins
4) Create Jenkins Job
5) Run Jenkins Job

Workflow in realtime
--------------------
1) Dev team will send request to Git admin to create Git Repository for project.

2) Dev team will write code & will push to Git repo

3) Dev/Testing team will send request to DevOps team to create Jenkins jobs with
Repo url and branch details.

4) Devops team will create jobs according to dev/testing team requirements

5) Dev & Testing team will run jenkins jobs to build & deploy code.

Mail format to send Jenkins Job Creation request to Devops Team


----------------------------------------------------------------
From : [email protected]
To : [email protected]

Subject : Jenkins Job Creation Request

Hi Team,

We need new jenkins job for QA environment

Git URL : <provide url here>


Git Branch Name : <provide branch name here>

Thanks & Regards,


Ashok.
Jenkins Job Execution Flow
--------------------------
1) Run Jenkins Job

2) Jenkins will clone Git Repository based on GIT Repo URL & Branch provided in job
configuration.

3) Jenkins will trigger Maven goals provided in job configuration.

- maven will clean project


- maven will compile project
- maven will execute junits
- maven will package

4) Jenkins will take packaged file and will deploy in server.

Jenkins Job Creation For Build & Deployment


--------------------------------------------
1) Install tomcat server in system

2) Add manager-script role in tomcat-users.xml file which is in conf folder.

3) Install 'Deploy To Container' plugin in jenkins

4) Restart Jenkins

5) Create Jenkins job


- Add Post Build Action to deploy to server

Note: Make sure server is running

Pipeline in Jenkins
-------------------
Pipeline is sequence of jobs

Interconnected jobs are called as Pipeline

To create Pipeline in jenkins, we should install 'build pipeline' plugin in


'Plugins Manager'.

Procedure to install 'build pipeline' plugin


---------------------------------------------
-> Go to jenkins home page
-> Click on Manage Jenkins
-> Click on Manage Plugins
-> Click on'Available' tab and search for 'build pipeline'
-> Select checkbox and click on 'Install without Restart'
-> After Installation successful Restart Jenkins

Note: To verify plugin installation, Click on '+' symbol in Jenkins Dashboard.

Procedure To Create Pipeline


-----------------------------
1) Create DEV Environment Job

2) Create QA Environment Job


Note: QA job should execute when DEV job executed successfully

3) Create Pipeline (Configure DEV job as initial Job)

Email Notifications From Jenkins


--------------------------------
When Jenkins job is executed it is highly recommended to send email notification to
team members with Job status.

Instead of sending that email manually, we can configure email functionality in


jenkins so that when jenkins job is executed email will be sent.

Note: Project will have DL, we can configure that DL in jenkins email notification
(Email will be sent to all emails which are part of DL).

Procedure to configure Email Notifications


------------------------------------------
1) Add SMTP server in Jenkins

-> Go to Jenkins Home Page


-> Click On Manage Jenkins
-> Click on 'Configure System'
-> Enter SMTP details in Email Notification Section

For Gmail SMTP details access below link

URL : https://domar.com/smtp_pop3_server

Note: SMTP details will be provided by Company

2) Add Email Notification to Jenkins Job as 'Post Build Action'
