forjdevops/jenkins-dood repository overview

⁠Jenkins

This repository contains automation scripts to build jenkins from scratch with plugins and pre-initialized configuration data. It has been strongly inspired by the public Docker image⁠ (but not used as reference) and enhanced.

Why?

We introduced several new features, like:

• jenkins features⁠ to help building easily a new jenkins image, by selecting some wanted features (Combination of plugins/config/scripts)
• a docker static binary cli to help doing Docker Out Of Docker.
• startup scripts capability

⁠To run it

Usually, you won't do that, because you want to build your own jenkins with the list of features you need. But if you want to see a basic version of jenkins, you can do the following:

docker run -it --rm -p 8080:8080 forjdevops/jenkins-dood:latest_1.658

⁠Jenkins version and docker tags

A docker image is versionned through his tag version and then pushed. Then on your Dockerfile, you refer to one version.

Ex:

FROM forjdevops/jenkins-dood:latest_1.642

We deliver several different jenkins version and maintain some of them. For docker image tagging, we follow those rules:

• Some version of jenkins (3 versions) gets a tag prefixed by the project release ie <ReleaseVersion>_<JenkinsVersion>.

  Ex: 0.2_1.658, 0.2_1.642, 0.2_2.50

• A branch of version. We maintain 3 different branches: 1.6x-latest, 1.6x-stable and 2.x. Latest version of a branch gets named as <ReleaseVersion>_<BranchVersion>-latest.

  Ex: 0.2_2.x-latest

• <ReleaseVersion>_latest will refer to the latest version for a dedicated version of this project.

  Ex: 0.2_latest

• latest_<jenkins_version|latest> will refer to the HEAD of the jenkins-ci repository. It will be updated any time a PR on jenkins-ci is merged.

• latest is the default tag for docker. We use it to refer to the latest version of jenkins, as found in http://pkg.jenkins.io/redhat/⁠

  Ex: latest refer to the latest version of jenkins and version of this project ie is identical to latest_latest

To get a list of published and available versions, connect to Docker Registry⁠

This project maintains a collection of tags, ie a limited collection of version of jenkins. To get the list of maintained version, read releases.lst⁠

⁠To build your own Jenkins image

This is the most common use case.

Create a Dockerfile:

FROM forjdevops/jenkins-dood:1.642

# To install plugins/features
COPY features.lst /tmp/
RUN /usr/local/bin/jenkins.sh /tmp/features.lst
# For possible features init files, see https://github.com/forj-oss/jenkins-install-inits

⁠Jenkins version

The Dockerfile currently install version Jenkins 1.642 LTS from RedHat jenkins Repository
