Creating a Kubernetes Cluster with Jenkins X and Importing App

You can skip this section if you kept the cluster from the previous chapter and it contains serverless Jenkins X. Otherwise, we’ll need to create a new Jenkins X cluster.

🔍 All the commands from this chapter are available in the 15-advanced-pipelines.sh Gist.

Create a new cluster and install Jenkins X#

For your convenience, the Gists that will create a new serverless Jenkins X cluster or install it inside an existing one are as follows.

GKE#

EKS#

AKS#

Install Jenkins X in an existing serverless cluster#

Use an existing serverless cluster: install-serverless.sh

Importing the application#

🔍 The commands that follow will reset your go-demo-6 master with the contents of the extension-model-cd branch that contains all the changes we did so far. Please execute them only if you are unsure whether you did all the exercises correctly.

If you ever restored a branch at the beginning of a chapter, the chances are that there is a reference to my user (vfarcic). We’ll change that to the Google project since that’s what Knative will expect as the location of the container images.

⚠️ Please execute the commands that follow only if you are using GKE and if you ever restored a branch at the beginning of a chapter (like in the snippet above).

🔍 If you destroyed the cluster at the end of the previous chapter, you’ll need to import the go-demo-6 application again. Please execute the commands that follow only if you created a new cluster specifically for the exercises from this chapter.

Now we are ready to continue.
