DevOps Academy

This repository's intention is to help the community in learning the DevOps methodologies and culture throughout a series of classes and hands-on exercises. The content of the classes that will be presented has been designed in a way to prepare you for working as an Automation/Cloud/DevOps Engineer.

These classes start with explaining different concepts at a high level and then goes into some detail. Some of the main topics currently being covered can be seen here.

Feel free to contribute to this repository with content through Pull Requests, help peer reviewing code or just going through the exercises!

If you want to be part of the team behind this, get in touch on [email protected].

How it Works

To complete the DevOps Academy, you will have to go through 8 classes with hands-on exercises. For each exercise, you will have to submit your code via pull requests to this repository as per instructions. The last two labs are complete projects based on current industry needs.

You will also be required to peer review at least 5 pull requests from other students to finish this course.

There will be 2 modes of learning the content in these classes:

Self-learning. Where you go through all the classes on your own pace and submit the exercises when you're ready.
Face-to-Face Classes or Virtual Classes. Where the instructors will go through the content of each class and answer any questions or concerns you might have. To sign up for the classes you can email [email protected] to get the presentation dates and the availability for the upcoming class.

The first round of classes has been completed and we are starting our second round of classes on the 2nd of June 2020. If you are interested in joining the upcoming classes, email us at [email protected] or come and chat to us on our Slack channel.

From time to time we also run the live/online classes of the Academy content with a selected group of students. Those classes uses this same repository and have no additional content. The only benefit is to have the opportunity to interact with a group of students as well as with the instructors in a more structured learning process.

Because in this live/online mode the classes occurs every fortnighly, the pace of the exercises completion are based on the course schedule, so students requires a considerable amount of hours available during the week to be able to keep the course pace and complete exercises.

Also, considering the limited number of students that are accepted for each live/online term, we ask people to only apply for those classes if they will be able to commit to have a 100% class attendance and are willing to invest their time in the learning process by doing the exercises and complete th group projects.

Requirements

Please find below the requirements to complete this course:

Slack

- your computer os version
- git version
- docker version
- aws cli version
- terraform version
Rename the output.txt file to [your_git_account_username].txt

Exercises

For each class exercise:

Clone this repository

git clone <repo-url>

OR fork it to your own GitHub account and clone from there

Switch to master branch and pull it
Create a new branch from master with branch name containing exercise number and your name, e.g <github-username>/<exercise-number>

git checkout -b caiocezart/c01-e01

create a folder with your <github-username> (e.g. denstorti, kikobr82, ...)

cd <repo-name>

mkdir classes/01class/exercises/c01-e01/<my-username>

Add your work on a folder like classes/<class name>/exercises/<exercise-number>/<github-username>/.

Exercise submissions can be textual like a simple .txt file or more complex containing several files and folders.

Example: classes/01class/exercises/c01-e01/caiocezart/<my-files>

Create one or more commits with changes for this exercise
Push it to the remote repo regularly
Only open a Pull Request with the name <github-username>/<exercise-number> when your work is ready to be reviewed
Once you have the approvals, we will merge your code to master branch and complete the exercise. Congrats!
Upon completion of your first exercise, you will be given permission to start/help peer reviewing other community members code!

Example of the submission process

# starting with exercise1
git checkout master
git pull
git checkout -b "my_github_username/exercise1"
# code code code 
# Remember to add files inside the correct folder
# e.g. .../classes/01class/exercises/exercise1/<my_github_username>
git add file1 file2
git commit -m "comment about the changes on this commit"
# ... several commits later
git push origin "my_github_username/exercise1"
# ... several pushes later, when you are ready for a review
# Open a PR via Github website with the name 

# now, doing exercise2
git checkout master
# update your work directory from remote repo
git pull 
git checkout -b "my_github_username/exercise2"
...
...

Available labs

Class 01: (AWS & GIT 101)

Projects

More info to come..

Projects will be submitted in the respective project submissions folder via PRs.

Example: projects/project01/submissions/caiocezart/<my-files>

Contributors and Instructors

Create a dashboard (CSV file) about exercise submissions

It will use the file labs.txtand students.txtfrom the scripts/ folder (TO BE IMPROVED FOR FLEXIBILITY).

Run: make dashboard

Optionally you can pass the Github User and Token, so the API calls are not throttled.

Run: make dashboard GH_USER=<YOUR_USER> GH_TOKEN=<YOUR_TOKEN>

Presentation format

We are using plain README.md files with markdown or GitPitch for slideshow presentations
Generate the presentation by running:
- make presentation
Generate a README.md file from the PITCHME.md file:
- make pitchme_to_readme
For GitPitch, use PITCHME.md files and subfolders using query string "p=FOLDERNAME" with the class name
GitPitch can run either online (out-of-the-box for Github public repos):
- Online: access https://gitpitch.com/${ORG_NAME}/${REPO_NAME}/${BRANCH_NAME}?p=${FOLDER_NAME}. Folder must contain a PITCHME.md file.
- Offline: use a Docker container, run make presentation and open http://localhost:9000/${ORG_NAME}/${REPO_NAME}/${BRANCH_NAME}?p=${FOLDER_NAME} For running in a specific folder: FOLDER_NAME=class2 make presentation

Clean up Ready to Review tag from Closed PRs

To clean up the Read to Review tags of the closed PRs, the below make target can be executed.

Run: make rtr-cleanup

Optionally you can pass the Github User and Token, so the API calls are not throttled.

Run: make rtr-cleanup GH_USER=<YOUR_USER> GH_TOKEN=<YOUR_TOKEN>
