Jenkins X is an integrated CI / CD platform for any Kubernetes cluster or cloud. Simple installation of best of breed open source software for developing and running applications in the cloud.
What's included out of the box?
 |
Jenkins - Fully integrated CI / CD solution with opinionated yet customisable pipelines and environments |
 |
Nexus - Artifact repository (pluggable so we can switch with Artifactory) |
 |
Chartmuseum - Helm Chart repository (Helm is the most popular Kubernetes package manager used to install and upgrade your applications) |
 |
Monocular - Web UI for searching and discovering Helm Charts |
Easy to install addons to come.
We use a CLI tool called jx to interact with Jenkins X. For installation jx delegates to Helm (Kubernetes Package manager) for install, upgrades and uninstall operations.
Grab the latest jx and choose the type of cluster you want to create.
The quickest way to get going is with Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), other major cloud providers coming shortly.
Prerequisite you will need a Google Cloud Account with a Google Project setup, follow this link for a free trial along with $300 credit https://console.cloud.google.com/freetrial
jx create cluster gke
And follow the CLI wizard
For local development we can install Jenkins X with minikube.
First install the Hyperkit driver https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/drivers.md#hyperkit-driver
git clone https://github.com/jenkins-x/cloud-environments && cd cloud-environments
jx create cluster minikube --local-cloud-environment=true
You can list the external URLs used to access applications on your kubernetes cluster by running:
jx open
