Usage

Jenkins CI is an open source automation server written in Java. Jenkins helps to automate the non-human part of software development process, with continuous integration and facilitating technical aspects of continuous delivery.

More information can be found at https://jenkins.io/

Setup jenkins client, works with Salt 2016.3+, supports pipeline workflow projects only for now.

Dependencies

To install on Ubuntu, you will need to add the jenkins debian repository to the target server. You can do this with the salt-formula-linux formula , with the following pillar data:

linux:
  system:
    enabled: true
      repo:
      jenkins:
        enabled: true
        source: "deb http://pkg.jenkins.io/debian-stable binary/"
        key_url: "https://pkg.jenkins.io/debian/jenkins-ci.org.key"

This state will need to be applied before the jenkins state.

Using this formula

To use this formula, you must install the formula to your Salt Master as documented in saltstack formula docs

This formula is driven by pillar data, and can be used to install either a Jenkins Master or Client. See pillar data below for examples.

Sample pillars

        address: repo_url
        branch: branch
      domain:
       engine: git
        address: domain_url
        branch: branch
    job:
      test_workflow_jenkins_simple:
        type: workflow
        display_name: Test jenkins simple workflow
        param:

            default: true
        script:

        script:
          repository: domain
          file: workflows/test_workflow_jenkins_input/Jenkinsfile

GIT controlled groovy script with shared libraries:

jenkins:
  client:
    source:
      base:
       engine: git
        address: repo_url
        branch: branch
      domain:
       engine: git
        address: domain_url
        branch: branch
    job:
      test_workflow_jenkins_simple:
        type: workflow
        display_name: Test jenkins simple workflow
        param:
          bool_param:
            type: boolean
            description: true/false
            default: true
        script:
          repository: base
          file: workflows/test_workflow_jenkins_simple.groovy
        libs:
        - repository: base
          file: macros/cookiecutter.groovy
        - repository: base
          file: macros/git.groovy

Setting job max builds to keep (amount of last builds stored on Jenkins master)

jenkins:
  client:
    job:
      my-amazing-job:
        type: workflow
        discard:
          build:
            keep_num: 5
            keep_days: 5
          artifact:
            keep_num: 6
            keep_days: 6

Using job templates in similar way as in jjb. For now just 1 defined param is supported:

jenkins:
  client:
    job_template:
      test_workflow_template:
        name: test-{{formula}}-workflow
        template:
          type: workflow
          display_name: Test jenkins {{name}} workflow
          param:
            repo_param:
              type: string
              default: repo/{{formula}}
          script:
            repository: base
            file: workflows/test_formula_workflow.groovy
        param:
          formula:
          - aodh
          - linux
          - openssh

Interpolating parameters for job templates:

_param:
  salt_formulas:
  - aodh
  - git
  - nova
  - xorg
jenkins:
  client:
    job_template:
      test_workflow_template:
        name: test-{{formula}}-workflow
        template:
          ...
        param:
          formula: ${_param:salt_formulas}

Or simply define multiple jobs and it's parameters to replace from template:

jenkins:
  client:
    job_template:
      test_workflow_template:
        name: test-{{name}}-{{myparam}}
        template:
          ...
        jobs:
          - name: firstjob
            myparam: dummy
          - name: secondjob
            myparam: dummyaswell

Purging undefined jobs from Jenkins:

jenkins:
  client:
    purge_jobs: true
    job:

      plugin3: {}
      plugin4:
        version: 3.2.1
        enabled: false
      plugin5: absent

Adding plugin params to job:

jenkins:
  client:
    job:
      my_plugin_parametrized_job:
        plugin_properties:
          throttleconcurrents:
            enabled: True
            max_concurrent_per_node: 3
            max_concurrent_total: 1
            throttle_option: category #one of project (default or category)
            categories:
              - my_throuttle_category
    plugin:
      throttle-concurrents:

        root_dn: dc=foo,dc=com
        user_search_base: cn=users,cn=accounts
        manager_dn: ""
        manager_password: password
        user_search: ""
        group_search_base: ""
        inhibit_infer_root_dn: false

Matrix configuration (depends on auth-matrix plugin):

jenkins:
  client:
    security:
      matrix:
        # set true for use ProjectMatrixAuthStrategy instead of GlobalMatrixAuthStrategy
        project_based: false
        permissions:
          Jenkins:
            # administrator access
            ADMINISTER:
              - admin
            # read access (anonymous too)
            READ:
              - anonymous
              - user1
              - user2
            # agents permissions
            MasterComputer:
              BUILD:
                - user3
          # jobs permissions
          hudson:
            model:
              Item:
                BUILD:
                  - user4
