How to Install Jenkins and Build CI/CD Pipelines on Windows

[@mainakghosh156]

Hi Mr. Cameron, that was a very neat and easy to understand video. Thanks for sharing that. I am a beginner wrt Jenkins but was easily able to follow along the video. Thanks a lot, keep up the good work !! :)

[@cameronmcnz]

Thanks for watching! I actually did an even deeper dive into Jenkins in this 2 hour crash course. Check it out! And again, thanks for the support! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYmzaYx4haeXndksi=JWFEYR916EYxlOxi

Wow, this video was great. Really helped me, thanks!!!

Hi Mr.Cameron McKenzie, I think you can't change the Jenkins port number even if you change it will work only on port 8080.

[@cameronmcnz]

Have you had issues installing Jenkins and not being able to change the port? If so I'll dig into that and see if there's a trick to it.

And can you tell me the difference between declarative and scripted pipeline. How and where can I learn this declarative and scripted pipeline?

[@cameronmcnz]

​@@hariharan8263 I know a *very* handsome man who wrote an article about exactly that topic! Here's the link. Tell him I sent ya! www.theserverside.com/answer/Declarative-vs-scripted-pipelines-Whats-the-difference

[@cameronmcnz]

@@hariharan8263 Bottom like? Stay away from Scripted Pipelines. You should only use declarative pipelines, and if you have complex logic, it should go in a Jenkins Shared Library. I know a guy who did a good video on Jenkins Shared libraries too! kzbin.info/www/bejne/anm3enWuqsuhY6c

Does this include integrating github into jenkins?

[@cameronmcnz]

This Jenkins tutorial of mine does! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYmzaYx4haeXndk

[@MrAbueslam]

github repo , error even when I am logged in . failed to accept credential key that I included with url .can you please show us how to remedy this error.

[@cameronmcnz]

Are you using your GitHub Login or an access token. If you haven't done a local OAuth login or 'Web Credentials' login, you'll likely need to provide a GitHub Access Token as the password, not your actual account password. Could that possibly be it? I'd like to resolve it, as if there's something that needs clarified in the tutorial I'd like to clarify it!

[@cameronmcnz]

My email is potemcam at g mail. Message me if it's an issue still. I'd love to help you fix it, and if you've fixed it, I'd like to know what the problem was!

[@MrAbueslam]

@@cameronmcnz Thanks I sorted out. I needed to create tocken and Jenkins global credentila user and password..

[@MrAbueslam]

Thanks a lot. I would diffiently like to see you provide project full automated cicd with Giops docker , k8 using windows machine. Would be Great!!!

[@cameronmcnz]

@@MrAbueslam Awesome. I'm curious, are you in Linux? I may redo this video as I think I messed something up in the video at the end, so I'll include a reference to that next time.

[@mainakghosh156]

would like to point out that in your script : stage('Static Code Analysis'){ build job: 'static-code-analysis' } fails for me, I can see that in the video this was not used. in my logs I see : ERROR: No item named static-code-analysis found Otherwise everything works.

[@cameronmcnz]

If you create a basic build job in Jenkins named "static-code-analysis' it will work. It's just looking for another build job with that name. I wonder why that made its way into the video? I'll make a note of it!

Can Jenkins be considered an orchestrator?

[@cameronmcnz]

It depends on how you define 'orchestrator.' To me, an orchestrator manages resources at runtime. So Kubernetes is an orchestrator for running Docker containers. Jenkins doesn't manage the runtime. It simply manages the integration, building and possibly deployment of artifacts. Now, does doing that require 'orchestration' of various resources? Sure. But it's not a 'runtime orchestration'.

[@Daniel_CLopes]

@@cameronmcnz Thank you, Cameron!

[@aditinikalje6040]

Boon for windows users. Thanks

[@cameronmcnz]

Right back at ya! Have fun with Jenkins!
